In France? If so you did well. I couldn’t find one on any of the manufactures French websites I searched, all 60X60 jobbies. They are still all the rage in the UK and Ireland however.
I don’t know what a double oven is! But I suspect that the one I purchased from Ubaldi on Thursday, delivered this morning, is such a beast.

It also has WiFi and voice control and at 666€, I would have been a devil not to buy it.
That’s a single oven with two doors
or maybe a dividable door is a better description. We saw them in Ubaldi too, very clever. It’s 60X60 whereas a “double” oven is 60X88, and that was the hole I had to fill ![]()
I don’t know anything about ‘two doors’, the one I took delivery of only has one door and either one or two cooking compartments and controls to boot. Admittedly it is not the same size as you belatedly quote, but it is not too difficult to fill a hole rather than enlarge one. ![]()
Yes a French company one of the Leisure (GB) models It was however according to the packaging made in Turkey Also a hotte 
What, a fitted kitchen with a plank in the middle of one unit
You couldn’t even find matching panelling now. That wouldn’t go down well with Mrs S.
What you have is a single oven that can have two separate temperatures going on simultaneously. Seems all the rage now and probably why traditional double ovens have disappeared here. You’ve two fans, but only one cavity (if I may be so rude), but it can be divided. We saw one with a clever door whereby if you were working in dual temp mode you could just open the top half of the door and not disturb what was going on in the bottom bit.
A double oven has two cavities and is 88 high vs 60 high for a single oven.
Your oven… one cavity.

Our one… two cavities.
Our hole…
That’s about as much as I want to know about bloody ovens now for the rest of my life ![]()
That looks lovely, very cosy. We needed a built in one though.
Nice looking range, I would have liked to have one years ago and still now but really don’t have the need and Mrs. W suffers badly with arthritis. So cooking large joints etc became another job for me.
This is what I did when putting in a new kitchen, oven above waist height +/- level with work surfaces, Mrs. W loves it and I can get on with something else, at the moment…
I like your selective choosing of the picture.
My oven, as you call it, is shown below, one door with a choice of one large or two smaller cavities both with independent controls.

We too had a situation where a larger oven was removed, I just filled the space with a proving oven/slow cooker/plate warmer.
So, it was a new oven, otherwise a new kitchen? In that case it makes sense.
On the subject of all these new countertop appliances, it seems an awful lot of them are doing what you used to be able to do with a pot, particularly a Le Creuset “Buffet Casserole” or a Dutch oven or similar, let alone a frying pan.
At 250 euros I’d have used that as an excuse for a trip to Dublin and gone and collected it myself. Possibly haggled.
Can’t cope with the weight. We have a small Le Creuset saucepan and I rarely use it. Certainly wouldn’t buy anything bigger.
I looked at that, but because of the two control panels it would have needed a bigger hole, which would have meant loosing a drawer and just as much guntering around.
It was the one I found on their website. I note your “two” cavities are created with a RCD (removable cavity divider). That doesn’t count I’m afraid*, for a cavity to counted as a cavity it must be surround on all four sides my immovable CDWs (cavity definition walls).
There has been a worrying outbreak of false cavities in Ubaldi and Dartry recently. Some clients have left the shops thinking they have two cavities and only realised when they got home that one cavity had dissapeared. I’m glad you got the cavities you paid for ![]()

New oven, twenty year old kitchen
but in perfect nick.
That was an option I considered. Though I’m not sure the EV and trailor would make good long distance traveling companions, it’d be awkward charging. The first shipment quote I got was €400 plus, the €250 is a bargain. Picked up by TNT on Tuesday and waiting in our porch when we got back from the village yesterday at noon. Very good service.
That’s the kind of thing I shall be looking into as big EV is likely to come with even bigger purchase price so if you do make a few trips like to know how you get on.
Hey, I’m having that exact same problem - we’ve only been here 2 months and I’ve tried every French electrical company for a Neff double oven. I’ve also been trying to order in Ireland but can’t get anyone to deliver and it’s not available on Amazon. Please could I ask you what company you used in Ireland for your double oven please? TIA
We tried everything Vero and wasted a lot of time just going around in circles. Maybe supply has changed since then, but I doubt it.
I think smaller is the trend not bigger. We’re in the process of doing up another kitchen and where the “double oven” slot would have traditionally been is now two ovens on top of each other, one of which is also a microwave and/or steamer or something, but multipurpose anyway. Mind you all this kitchen technology is way above my pay grade ![]()
DID Electrical, a very reputable firm. The receipt is below. The person we were dealing with was Craig at Stillorgan@did.ie if he’s still with them he might remember the transaction.
We had to arrange shipping ourselves from the warehouse to here, but the guy in the warehouse, Shay was great too Warehouse@did.ie
It all went very well apart from the shippers, TNT, who were either incompetent or crooks.
When the oven arrived, based on fitting a single oven over forty years ago in our first house I thought we’d just be able to slot the new one in ourselves. We opened the box and realised it weighed a ton. So we booked some professionals to come and do the job, but there was going to be a week’s delay.
We were lucky that happened. During the week TNT came back to the Irish shipping agent and said the measurements that I had given then (direct from the NEFF product data sheet) were wrong and that I owed them another 200 quid or something. They said they had a magic laser measuring machine
that disagreed with my measurements.
We were lucky we still had the oven sitting in its box so we measured it and NEFF’s packaging measurements were correct. If they had been incorrect I would have had no problem paying the extra.
So we told the agents to explain to TNT their magic machine had made a mistake. TNT wouldn’t give in so we sent them photos from all three dimension with a tape measure showing the size. TNT still wouldn’t give up. The 200 quid wasn’t an issue, it was their bloody mindedness that annoyed me. Eventually we had to send multiple versions of photos of the box with a measuring tapes on all dimensions it for TNT to go away.
So, if we had managed to install the oven and then dumped the box TNT would have us ripped us off. They’re not nice or customer orientated people. If I was still woking they be blacklisted on our supplier database.
Otherwise the exercise was very successful, just be careful which transport company you choose ![]()
What is the actual problem with the oven?
Good question ![]()
I had a landlord I help with their properties ask me if Delonghi had gone out of business as the oven seller had told her whilst trying to sell her a new £300 cooker. £9.80 for a new element later I repaired the cooker.
