As we do very little catering these days, I'm thinking of a Sharp R959SLMA or similar as a main oven (to replace the freestanding gas cooker).
only appliance in there, I'm wondering whether I'll be left with odd spaces for which there will be no doors or drawers available. If anyone has done a similar thing, I'd be interested to know. Sharp sell an inset grill for this purpose
Although this comes with a 13 amp plug, a quick calculation suggests I'd need to upgrade the 2.5 ring main. Actually, thinking of all the usual appliances that *could* be run at the same time (and that's without a tumble dryer), we might be sailing a little close to the wind already. My plan would be to have a cooker socket installed anyway in case the microwave idea doesn't work out and we go for an electric oven. Would the microwave have to be hard wired into that, or do they come with a 13 amp socket?
Any thoughts/gotchas appreciated.
