Default Ovens

You need two ovens, one that serves as a grill if you don't have an
alternative.

Brand. We bought a Creda basically cos it was a brand we knew we could
get parts for once the guarantee ran out. They share parts with a number
of other known " names".

I wouldn't worry about the height, this can be sorted out by anyone with
any aspirations of being a chippy. Our kitchen was bought in France but
I sourced the oven in the UK for price reasons, they cut the support to
suite it and then cut a blank to hide the vertical gap.. Widths are
standard these days.
