ᐅ IKEA Metod Häggeby Cabinet – Compatibility with Non-IKEA Ovens, User Experiences

Hello dear community,

I have been researching here diligently for several days, but now I have a question. We are in the process of redesigning our kitchen. The oven will be installed in the classic way, under the cooktop. For this, we have chosen the appropriate Metod cabinet.

METOD / Förvara
Base cabinet for oven with drawers, white, HÄGGEBY white

As far as I know, the IKEA cabinets are designed for IKEA appliances. The dimensions of, for example, the Raffinerad oven are as follows: W 59.5cm (23.4 inches); D 56.4cm (22.2 inches); H 59.5cm (23.4 inches). The oven we have chosen differs quite a bit in size: W 59.4cm (23.4 inches); D 59.5cm (23.4 inches); H 56.7cm (22.3 inches).

Width and depth should not be a problem. But what about the height? Our oven is 2.8cm (1.1 inches) shorter than the IKEA model. After installation, will there be a gap either under the countertop or under the oven?

I still have the plank from the old Faktum cabinet, which is the same width. However, I’m not sure if we can install it without issues, and it has discolored after 11 years of use.

I would appreciate any answers 🙂

Hello, that should be fine. Which oven is it?

That would be the one from Beko

You have mixed up the dimensions a bit.

Width: 594 mm (23.4 inches)
Height: 595 mm (23.4 inches)
Depth: 567 mm (22.3 inches)

Yes, and the ovens at Ikea are significantly taller, which is why I asked.

No, the Beko is also 595 mm (23.4 inches) high (see your link). That’s why it’s mixed up...
