Freestanding upright cookers typically come in 60cm and 90cm widths. A 60cm cooker suits most standard kitchens and families, offering four burners or elements and an oven with adequate capacity for everyday cooking. A 90cm model is worth considering if you cook in larger volumes, entertain regularly, or want more burners and a bigger oven cavity. Before buying, measure the gap in your cabinetry carefully, including the height clearance above the cooktop, to make sure your new cooker fits properly.
