Replace Oven with burner only?

Has anyone replaced their oven with only a cooktop? We never use the oven I it would give a little more storage.

If so, please post some pictures on how it turned out.

Thanks,
Terry

  • We have never had a oven. But it should not be hard. Couple of pieces of oak and material to make a box where the oven was.
    I did a recent upgrade to our MH that got rid of gas range. Here is a picture.
  • My wife loves to bake. No way I'd not have one. Just bought a new C and that was one of the must haves. Should be easy to remove though as many we looked at did not have an oven but one could have one easily added.
  • There is a current thread running where a guy wants an over. Maybe look it up and make him a swap.
  • We also use our oven to store the larger pots and pans and it is nice to have the option to use it when the microwave won't cut it.
  • My MH came with only a cooktop, due (according to the salesman) to a shortage of ovens. The dealer later sent us an oven with the cooktop and I installed it myself. I don't see any reason you couldn't reverse the process provided you can find a suitable door.
  • Our oven is also used for 'storage.'

    But, on a rainy, cold Oregon Coast morning.....hot cinnamon rolls are hard to bake with just a cook top.
  • I just use the oven for storage. Have been for years now. No need for a DYI just open door and put your stuff inside! :B
