These units look like giants in kitchens because unlike most models with an oven or cabinet below the cooktop, the cooktop on these models could not be below counter height with the dishwasher uner it. These give pretty good space between the cooktop and the underside of the oven, but that makes the whole thing, with a fairly good sized upper (read only) oven, very tall. Add ventilation on top of that and you have something that looks like a ceiling scraper.
