Hello, we have a kitchen problem I hope you may be able to advise on.
Our built-under oven needs replacing, this is part of a fitted kitchen we inherited from the previous owners, but unfortunately we have found the oven is an unusual size. It seems to be a 70cm WIDE built-under oven, and nobody seems to sell these at all apart from the company ours is from - but we are reluctant to use them again for several reasons.
So it looks like we will need to get the kitchen adjusted somehow to fit a standard-size (60cm) oven, but without leaving gaps at the sides.
The things I would like some help with are a) what is this likely to involve and how expensive is it likely to be? and b) as the kitchen is now some years old and the doors are probably a bit faded (and exact same ones probably no longer available), are we likely to have problems matching up any extra bits of wood needed? Or any other ideas for ways to get round this!
Some background - the oven is in between the under-sink cupboard (double cabinet with normal doors) and a narrowl pull-out unit with wire racks - this is at the end of the row of units, but joins onto a step out of the kitchen area so I'm not sure that could just be moved along. The doors are a sort of medium oak colour, but a bit faded.
Thank you!
