Kitchen oven advice

[johnnytheboy]

Just a quick question, my oven has just packed in, which is a nightmare at this time of year with chrimbo looming! I plan to rip the kitchen out next year and put in a range cooker, so I need an oven for a short period of time and dont want to spend loads, Gumtree being the obvious place. One thing though, are all integrated ovens the same size, i.e. hole and fitment?

Most standard ovens are either 50 or 60cm wide.

For many years I used (and still have somewhere) a 'Baby Belling' cooker, two hobs, an oven and a grill, about the size of a large microwave it'll sit on the worktop.

Have a look on espares, maybe its just the heating element that's gone.

espares has "spares" (funnily enough) and how to videos for most household appliances like washing machines, cookers etc.

Aye, I remember them.

Think a few other companies make similar things (and cheaper) these days eg.

Same thing happened to me last wednesday picked a cracker up on ebay for £60 which will see us through till next year. Espares is always worth a try though.

+1 for espares.
Also check out freecycle in your area.Many people just give things like cookers away when they get a new kitchen.

Thanks guys for the help, I think this one is more than the element this time, I'll check freecycle just now!!

Good luck with cooking a turkey in one!

By the way, we have a range cooker - a Rangemaster Leisure 110 - wouldn't recommend it...

Johnny,

This is a weird thought but......

We cook on LPG. LPG cookers (with oven) can be had very cheaply. chuck in a cylinder (outside) and a regulator and you have all you need. Then, when you have a new kitchen, you have a full sized cooker for outdoor jobs, jerky, barbecues and whatever you like.

I think your current is a "built in" but I thought I would throw it our there
