I need a new cooker; apparently what I want is impossible - can anyone help?

[KatyMac]

I have a lovely silver Delonghi electric cooker; the oven door has it's hinge at the bottom.

I have just been to John Lewis & I'm on my way to Curry's; the ovens I have seen so far the doors all hinge on the right

Has anyone seen an oven door hinged at the bottom (free standing, electric, grey/black)

Thanks MyHovercraft - I rang them & they don't have a single cooker that opens that way

I thought so to when I started this marathon shop

Thanks for trying - I do appreciate it (I actually found both a green & a purple one - neither open the right way bit they are my favourite colours )

Ours hinges at the bottom. It's an Ikea one.

It's built in though. But we just have it on the floor because in Germany apparently kitchens aren't standard when you rent a place (who knew??)

Hmm. My last oven also opened at the bottom, it was freestanding, it was gas though. And really shit. I'll try to remember the brand.

Top, even.

I had a look & they only do integrated ovens/hobs nor free standing - but thanks I hadn't thought of looking there

I never knew German's rented houses without kitchens

I wonder if I could do that.....DH would say no I think

Often without light fittings too. It's mystifying! And you're expected to lug the things with you when you leave.

It does look a bit shit so we put it behind a curtain.

The curtain option wouldn't work here but we do have light fittings thank goodness

Ours hinges at the bottom, it's a kenwood and is free standing.

They seem to be just gas ones that I can find - thanks tho' it's another manufacturer I hadn't considered

www.beko.co.uk/Item/BDVC664 wrong colour?

Hmm lots of gas ones that hinge at the bottom but no electric ones. How odd! Hinges at bottom makes sense to me, I didn't consider any that opened any other way. Ours is a 6 ring hob with two ovens one large and one small. And it's silver.

I shall Google some more.

www.sonicdirect.co.uk/products.asp?id=108& seem to have a range of electric cookers with drop down doors in lots of colours!

Eek don't kbow what happened there!

Kenwood do do electric ovens though. Having Google and the ones I have seen look like the hinge is at the bottom. What size are you looking for?

The Beko has the wrong door - if you look in the picture you can see her floor

The kenwood is just too big beautiful but too big I need a 600mm/60cm one

& I'll ring Sonic Direct in the morning to check - thank you

Oh so regular size. I had to take out a cupboard to fit my 90cm one and it was a squeeze but I love it.

I think most of the smaller ones are fitted and not free standing but shall keep looking. I do love kitchen appliances...

Aw thank you

I refitted my kitchen last august so I really don't want to do that....
