I have always had freestanding oven and stove. I am looking for new stove and oven for my new house.

I am liking builtin now but i have heard alot against built-in ovens like they heat cabinets around it and difficulty in in servicing as not enough space around them.

to be disadvantage for freestanding oven is that you have to bend/sit down to use it mostly and i am hating it now.

So before i buy, i would like opinion and feedback on this issue.

Re: freestanding stove&ovan Vs Builtin

Well I have always used built in stove and no issues .. yes there is slight heating in the cabinet right under it , but you can place pots and pans in that particular cabinet. No heat gets into the cabinets next to the stove one ..

Its so neat as well. My mother used to have a free standing stove and believe me it was a hassle coz food and particles would always drop on the sides and it was a hell of a task cleaning them out ..

I think built looks nicer. We have a gas hob and an electric oven built in under it. Never any heating issues with cupboards as oven is directly below cooker/hob.
