ᐅ Electric cooktop and coal stove in a new kitchen

Hello,

for the new kitchen that will be built soon, I would like to include a coal stove in the plan, in addition to the regular electric stove, of course.
I want to integrate it as much as possible into a kitchen unit. The kitchen will have an L-shape (with dishwasher, sink, and cooktop) plus a single row on the opposite wall (with oven and microwave). The stove is to be placed in this row. Currently, the room is almost completely gutted; a load-bearing wall still needs to be installed, and the ceiling insulated.

My main question, however, is whether any of you own a coal stove and if you could recommend a brand or model. Visually, I like the Wamsler W1-75 and W1-90 stoves very much; I want a fairly modern look in stainless steel or black. A built-in oven is important to me.

Do you have any experience with these kinds of stoves? What should I pay attention to—also considering the further kitchen planning (which is now only possible to a limited extent)?

@hanse987 ... that's right, the images are gone. Although I did see them earlier this afternoon.

Hanse, unfortunately, I can’t see the pictures either. But the dimension you gave for the wall cabinets is very helpful. I redesigned the kitchen yesterday; now all the wall cabinets will be placed on the opposite wall.

After carefully measuring the chimney connection, the layout for the "stove row" is now set: an 80cm (31.5 inch) base cabinet, then the stove (I changed my mind - it will be either a Wamsler W1-90 or W2-90), followed by another 80cm (31.5 inch) base cabinet, next to it a 60cm (23.6 inch) tall cabinet with oven and microwave, and finally another 60cm (23.6 inch) tall cabinet. This means there will be 80cm (31.5 inch) of free space “above” on both sides of the stove.

Quite spontaneously, we have now decided to install the through-heating system. That makes sense for us – next door is the dining room/hall with a very old, beautiful tiled stove, which unfortunately no longer has approval to operate. Ah, I am really looking forward to it

Thank you so much for your help!
