Expand cubby for a bigger wall oven.

I think the existing oven installation looks second rate and your proposal doesn't change that.

Are you sure about the size?

I measured my wall oven and found it required a 27" opening.  But then I found out that the 30" ovens were designed to fit in a 30" cabinet and required a 27" opening.

It is easy to find out.  Google the 30" oven of your choice and look for the installation instructions.  It will list the cut out size.  

So I was shopping for a 27" oven but I needed a 30" nominal size.  There a lots more 30" ovens available than 27" ones.  

Check the specs first.

I will correct myself.  A 30" wall oven requires a 28½" wide opening.  I checked Kenmore also--same 28½" opening.
