Not every home needs two ovens. A range and its single oven is commonplace. A cook top and a separate oven, or two, also commonplace. Nobody can answer what YOU need.

This isn't Europe....... that's all anyone can say. Nobody here, outside a major hub city with a tiny kitchen, wants a 24 inch range, or a 24 inch oven. Even 27 inch ovens have gone the way of the dodo bird in new kitchens.

I'd have a 36 inch cook top and a 30 inch steam/convection oven

We don't know your layout, the size/storage in the kitchen or anything else. "When you go to sell".....ten years? five? Twenty? Someone may rip the kitchen : ) entirely.

I agree only you know how you cook . The only experience I have with steam ovens is in commercial kitchens and honestly 1/2 the time when needed they were out of service . I run a catering biz form my home I have a 36" 6 burner all gas range and double electric wall ovens all have cinvection ovens and I have one portable induction burner I use for delicate sauces and melting chocholate. I use a pan of water with a perforated pan that fits inside when I want to steam large amounts of whatever . I have a counter top MW and I hve never found the need for anything else . Get what you actually need not what seems to be "in" this year.

We would get a 30" or 36" cooktop to go along with the speed oven and steam/combo oven. It's just the wall oven we don't think we want or need. I'm in CA if that matters.

You have to get what YOU need. You are asking as to a hypothetical buyer at some POINT. IT MATTERS NOT. You aren't selling. That person will consider a host of factors before your appliances.

If you got something like a 24" Miele CSO XXL it would work as a main oven for a fair percentage of people. Get the plumbed version (water supply and drain).

If this is a large house that could fit a large family, then your plan might not be good for resale, but if it is a regular 3 bed/2 bath, it will probably work fine.

The LG WCEP6427F combines an upper 1.7 cf speed oven with a lower 4.7 cf convection/steam oven. At AJ Madison, Appliances Connection.

How long do you plan on staying in the home? If it is a long time, then do whatever you want. I have had a few customers do that and not one has regretted their decision. My oven broke right before Thanksgiving one year. I was stuck! A friend suggested an electric roaster that you sit on the countertop. It was the best $35 I ever spent. I have never gone back to using the oven for turkeys or roasts ever since. I would not regret making the change you are doing. I think the steam or speed ovens are great and can also get rid of a microwave.

Good luck!

We plan on staying for the foreseeable future , we don't have plans to sell after the remodel.

Thanks everyone for your thoughts.

If you plan on staying in the house for 15-20 more years, do whatever you like. Otherwise, selling a home without a standard size oven could affect resale because all new cabinet$ might be required.

BTW never buy 2 different ovens in one unit and I mean not even a MW combined with another oven. One will always break down before the other. I think if you are concerned get a range and the ovens you are talking about then no issue.
