Built under double oven with hob above

Are you sure you want a gas hob ? Would an induction be better ? Much easier to clean for sure but need certain types of saucepans

My built under oven doesn't sit in a unit. It fits in the gap between two units.

The hob fits into a space cut out of the worktop.

Would that even be called a built under oven or a built in oven ?

A built in oven is fitted in a high unit with the oven a eye level.

My oven is fitted the same as yours, between two units,  but my hob is electric and does not reach the back of the worktop, hence a space is cut out of the worktop for it to sit in.

I'm loving my induction hob - Just like cooking on gas without the drama and fire risk.

The one I have is about 40mm thick and needs a bit of air space above the oven to allow for cooling. Only have a single oven, so space works quite well.

My oven is not fitted between 2 units it is fitted in a unit 

If i removed the oven I could fit a door, a space between 2 units thats not possible

A single built under oven is fitted in a unit, a double built under oven is fitted without a unit. They fit between base units on each side. 

It is a tight fit to fit a hob above the double oven especially with 30mm worktops. I had to lower my double oven down to fit the induction hob in. 

There is a gap of about 20mm from the top of the oven to the worktop but you can’t see it unless you get on your hands and knees.
