Advantages of Built-in Stove

Ideas for Decorating with Built-in Stove

Clean and Uniform Look on the Kitchen

One of the main advantages of a built-in stove is its clean and uniform look it offers on the kitchen compared to a floor-standing one.

Since it has no legs, a built-in stove fits into the furniture or countertop, creating a sense of spaciousness and continuity of elements that make up the kitchen.

Additionally, a built-in stove has a more modern look.

Ease of Cleaning

A built-in stove also deserves praise for its cleanliness, as the lack of legs allows it to fit perfectly into furniture or countertops, eliminating gaps and spaces where stains or food residues might drip.

Oven Included

Unlike a cooktop, a built-in stove already comes with an oven, so you don't need to worry about buying an additional appliance.

Variety of Sizes and Models

Another advantage of a built-in stove is the large number of available models and sizes on the market. First, you can choose the number of burners (4, 5 or 6 depending on your needs).

Additionally, built-in stoves may have certain conveniences such as a grill, self-cleaning function and timer. Some models even feature dual oven options.

Built-in stoves are also available in various colors and materials. For example, there are black or stainless steel built-in stove models. Other models have no top part, only a glass surface with burners mimicking a cooktop.

Disadvantages of Built-in Stove

Cost

A built-in stove has a disadvantage in cost. Compared to a regular floor-standing stove, the built-in version can be up to three times more expensive, depending on brand and model.

Compared to a cooktop, the price difference of a built-in stove is not as significant, since you need to consider both the cost of the cooktop and the oven that must be purchased separately. Ultimately, the values are almost equal.

May Not Suit Every Kitchen

Another issue with a built-in stove is that it may not suit some types of kitchens. Smaller kitchens, for example, struggle with the massive size of the appliance and thus take up more space.

Another drawback is that a built-in stove will hardly fit into standard modular furniture. It requires fixed and sturdy construction for installation. For this reason, this stove model requires a planned kitchen.

Requires Careful Installation

A built-in stove is large and heavy, so installing the appliance by yourself can be difficult and requires proper connections. In case of doubt, consult professionals.

Now look at the following kitchens that chose a built-in stove and turned out beautifully:
