Hello. Yes, everything you are asking for is possible. However, you won’t find what you are looking for from an off the shelf kitchen which leaves you with a custom made kitchen, likely to be German. As a guide we do this type of kitchen. They have many standard sizes of units one of which is 780mm high . If you need exactly 790 then that can be done but would be a special with a surcharge. 170 degree hinges are also available on request. The standard is usually 107 degrees. Hope this helps. The range we use is called Schuller and there are dealers all,over the country.

Hi. Most self venting hobs we fit are recirculatory. The recirc system is very good at removing smells and there are effective grease filters installed also. The steam just dissapates behind the unit. Although the hobs are supposed to work with just a 40mm gap behind the units I do try to increase this gap, if possible. Which, on an island is usually possible. If you don't like the idea of the steam behind the units then you can vent it out theough the plinth of the unit but this isn'r necessary.

Hi. The standard width of frame is about 80mm-90mm. There are thinner which we call "skinny shaker". These tend to look a little more contemporary. There are also thicker, broad shaker, but we shy away from these as on a 300 wide unit there is hardly any centre panel left.

Thanks for the advise, I will try to better next time

The cost is minimal and booting the machine up can sometimes use more power than keeping it going, so, don't switch it off.

Hi, thanks for getting in touch and your insight.i have to admit, even though I have been designing kitchens for over 50 years, I haven’t heard of the Frigidaire oven. I can totally understand how good design can help people with specific problems, and this oven is a perfect example of this.

Hi it’s certainly on the list. Thanks for the suggestion.

Yep I agree. When we sell one we always suggest client take out the extra guarantee, just in case. Usually this isn’t something we advise but it makes sense with the hide and slide because of the problems

Sometime I wish I was too!

Definitely not silly. Yes it takes up a bit of room under the sink but there are many other ways of gaining that space back through innovative design. Also it free’s up work top space as there is no kettle. Go for it

My pleasure, and thank you for the comment

Ok. If you are going for a flat, not shaped, door then look for a laminate with PP edging, should be same cost as vinyl wrap but much better. If you have to go for vinyl wrap ensure you get at least a 5 year guarantee against de-lamination. If dealing with a reputable company this should be standard, but check. The other thing is to try to mitigate the likely problems. Once your kitchen is in consider where steam and water could cause problems. 2 obvious one’s are; don’t boil a kettle under a wall unit. The biggest one is always close the dishwasher door fully after opening it. If you don’t steam will come out the side of the door and damage the adjacent doors. Common sense really but not everybody is aware. Good luck.

Glad to be of service and thank you for the comment

Kind of you to say so

I only realised after I fit a combi for a client who was under 5ft tall. I never made that mistake again

Hello Greece! Great question. When using the microwave, on it's own, then you must remove the metal shelves as usually you are using the microwave above 700w. When it is in combi mode, along with the oven function, the microwave is restricted to 600w and at this level it is ok to have metal trays in the oven. Hope this helps.

I have to say, having returned occasionally to old kitchens I’ve installed. The stainless steel sinks are always the one’s that still look the best. So if your after longevity stick with stainless. Thanks for the question

There is an integrated fridge that has an ice cube dispenser in it, although it’s not the maxi size. It’s supplied by a company called Liebher. I have fit a few of these, they are quite expensive but do solve the ice cube problem. Thanks for your comment.

Thanks for your comment and we’re pleased to have informed you

Hello Canada. Thanks for watching and for your comments. Our kitchen furniture is German and is called Schuller. I have to say that virtually all the German kitchen furniture is of a high standard and very designable. I know some of them export to the States not sure about Canada though. Perhaps Google German kitchens and see what comes up.

Thanks for getting in touch. I started kitchens back in the early 70’s and I’ve had to learn many new names for things. Our business is constantly changing.

Thanks for getting in touch. Yes, I’ve always had some Corian in my own kitchens and I think it’s wonderful. Regarding boiling water taps. It was 2 years ago since I last asked that question and Du Ponts advice then was not to do it. It was ok if you had a Mixa sink, with a steel base but not if you had a full Corian bowl. However, advice changes , I need to know this myself so I will check again and let you know.

Hi thanks for your input and you’re right. I sometimes get so excited about what I’m saying I forget about presentation. Thanks for the reminder

I’m sure somebody will come up with your suggestion. Thanks for getting touch

No problem and thanks for the comment

That’s great, pleased to be of service

Yes definitely the way forward for people in your circumstances. The only thing you lose is flexibility. You have to plan your cooking a bit more. You may have 2 items that need different temperatures. Discussing this with our clients we sometimes suggest a warming drawer in addition to the combi oven. That way you can cook your chicken at 180 degrees bob it in the warmer or let it “rest” then cook your roasties at 230 degrees. Glad you like our channel!

What can I say, thirsty work. Thanks for the input

Hi. Usually you can’t have. Drawer above the oven as it too high to see into it. If, though , you are having a custom made kitchen then the top cupboard will be made bigger so no space is lost Thanks for the comment

Right yes but that's more "problematic" than "can't". Thanks

Glad to be of service, thanks for getting in touch

Usually the laminate will.. be bonded onto chipboard or MDF. Water ingress ion is not a concern providing it has a good edge and sits in a waterproof track. Thanks for getting in touch

No problem, thanks for watching

Hi, I think you have made the right decision. Thanks for the comment.

Is it good? Could you tell me the model ? Thanks in advance

You will mean like the Neff slide and hide oven. It’s because of the nature of a microwave door. It is a lot thicker than a typical oven door so the space you would have to leave for it is too much. Maybe as technology improves it will get thinner and be able to roll,under. Thanks for the comment

@@TheKitchenDesignExperts thanks for the explanation, something else learned

Great stuff, good luck with your design

Entertaining information, that’s brilliant, thanks very much for the comment

That’s absolutely great, thank you for your comment

Thanks for the sentiment and the comment

That’s great but be aware that my comparison relates to having 2 side by side appliances 1 x 1775 fridge and 1 x 1775 freezer. Together they take up 1200mm . As opposed to,900mm for the free standing version. Just make sure you have the room.

You’re spot on, thanks for that. It’s just that here in the Uk we call all double doored free standing fridge freezers “American fridge freezers,it doesn’t matter if they are made in Japan, Italy or Germany

@@TheKitchenDesignExperts do you want to tell him Samsung is Korean or shall I?

Wow, that’s amazing. Really pleased you think that way. Thanks very much for your comment.

That’s great, pleased you liked it and thanks for your comment. Part 2 will be out next week!

My pleasure, glad it helps, and thanks for the comment

Really pleased it’s helped, thanks for comment

Wow Fenix doors. We haven’t done a video on that yet but I’m sure you will love them. Thank you for your comment
