The oven - deep or high ...

Hi,

We are currently planning the kitchen a bit, and the question came up: oven old school or elevated? The current stove in the old house has a plain normal stove. It is only used a few times (roughly 10 times) per month for quick frozen food (pizza, fish, etc.) or heating up rolls. There are no other baking orgies like daily cakes, etc. We would also like to have a baking cart now. What experiences have you had with your ovens?

Baking drawer = Oven built in low, for oven built in high one rather chooses telescopic slides.

Modern ovens today are often controlled with displays and knobs, sometimes also touch operation. In my opinion, such can be better operated at eye level.

In general, however, it also depends on the kitchen space what is possible.

How does the floor plan design look?

Black, wide and deep

Depends on your height. Under 1 meter deep, otherwise tall.

We always had deep. Now planned tall, there were no discussions. You can comfortably look inside and load it.

High since the new build. We find it significantly better now.

Hello,

How is the floor plan design coming along?

Good ..... Yeah yeah.... I'll try to present you the new data this weekend.

Baking drawer = oven installed deep, if the oven is installed high you rather choose telescopic slides.

We have telescopic slides now too. But sure, baking drawer is suboptimal for the high-installed ovens.

Partly also touch control.

We know that from the Danish houses... not for us. Recessed rotary knobs are in. Keep it simple and stupid!

Something like that, in my opinion, is easier to operate at eye level.

Maybe, but loading, bending down and cleaning are possible future pain points for us, turning a few knobs is not the problem. For the cooking gurus probably more so, but for us average warmers mostly less.
It was more about the practical aspects of use.

I would ask differently, what advantages do you see in a [tiefen Backofen]? I always see the high oven as having the advantage in terms of operation, visibility, ease of cleaning, etc., because you don't have to bend down.
