Buying guide

Built-in oven sizes and cabinet dimensions

Built-in ovens are chosen by cabinet width first. 60cm is the standard housing in most kitchens, 90cm suits larger layouts and needs a wider cabinet, and compact ovens fit a reduced-height niche. Measure the niche, not the old oven, and confirm the housing dimensions on the product page before ordering.

The three sizes you will meet

Most built-in ovens are 60cm wide and designed for a standard tall or under-counter housing. Wider 90cm ovens suit larger kitchens and need a correspondingly wider cabinet. Compact ovens are around 45cm high and are usually installed together with a warming drawer or a coffee machine so the column is fully used.

  • 60cm: the standard housing; height and depth vary by model.
  • 90cm: wider cooking space but a bigger cabinet requirement.
  • Compact: reduced height, often paired in a column with another appliance.

Measure the niche, not the old appliance

When replacing an oven, the old appliance's external size is not the number that matters. The cabinet opening and the way the oven is fixed in it determine what will fit. Take the niche width, height and depth, and check the clearance the new model requires behind and around it.

Ventilation matters too: a built-in oven needs the airflow its installation guide specifies, and boxing it in without that gap is a common cause of overheating.

Choosing the functions and cleaning system

Capacity is usually stated in litres, but usable volume depends on shelf positions and whether the model uses side racks or telescopic runners. More functions are not automatically better; match them to how you cook.

Cleaning is the specification owners notice most. Pyrolytic cleaning heats the oven to burn off residue, catalytic liners absorb grease on the walls, and steam-assisted cleaning softens residue at lower temperatures.

Power and installation

Check whether the model is supplied with a plug or must be hard-wired, and confirm the supply the kitchen offers. KitchenByPro supplies the appliance; installation is carried out by the brand's authorised service centre or your own fitter.

Built-in oven sizes and cabinet dimensions: common questions

Can a 60cm oven go into a 90cm cabinet?

Not without a filler or a change to the housing, because the appliance is fixed by the sides of its niche. Match the cabinet opening to the oven's stated housing dimensions.

What is the difference between built-in and built-under?

Both are housed in cabinetry; the difference is normally the position and the housing, with built-under ovens installed beneath a worktop. Confirm the model's installation type on the product page.

Does a built-in oven need a dedicated circuit?

Some models do and some run from a standard socket. Check the product's power and connection details, and have the supply verified before installation if the model is hard-wired.
