Struggling to find a built in microwave and double over that match (that I can afford)

The microwave needs to have a drop down door

I liked a hotpoint microwave but I couldn't find a matching double oven

Has anyone seen reasonably priced ones?

If it helps we have a hot point microwave and oven and they are, without a shadow of a doubt, the worse oven and microwave I've ever owned!
They were fitted by our builder and most of the estate have gotten rid.
Mine looks very similar to your picture x

Don’t get the drop down door mircrowave by Neff - see reviews on JL. Ours has stopped working after 2 years and it seems to be an issue that many have had.

These are lovely

Are ikea appliances any good?

So several people say ikea is pants for ovens

Hotpoint is also not great

I want a silver microwave/grill and a single oven i think but I cant find a microwave cheap enough that matches an oven

or maybe I should keep.my old microwave in a cupboard and buy a double oven

They are all so black

I wouldn't put too much effort into getting them matching. As soon as one goes wrong and you get a replacement it won't.

Get the ones that are best for you instead.

Don't buy appliances from the kitchen company.

But if they are above one another in a housing they will look pants if they are different brands

I mean having the different later is one thing but I want it to look good at least initially
