30-inch wall oven cutouts compared
Two ovens sold as “30-inch” can need different openings. Standard cutouts for the GE and Bosch ovens below start at 28 1/2 in wide, but double-oven heights differ: GE asks for 50‑1/4 in minimum without the pedestal, Bosch for 49 3/4 to 51 1/2 in.
| Model | Cutout width | Cutout height | Cutout depth | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| GE JTD3000SNSS (double) | 28‑1/2" to 28‑5/8" | 50‑1/4" min. without pedestal; 51‑13/16" to 51‑15/16" with pedestal | 23‑1/2" min. | GE spec PDF, revised 9/20 |
| Bosch HBL8651UC (double, standard) | 28 1/2" | 49 3/4" to 51 1/2" | 23 1/2" | Bosch spec sheet, 9/26 |
| Bosch HBL8651UC (double, flush) | 30" | 52 3/16" | 24 1/2" | Bosch spec sheet, 9/26 |
| GE JTS3000SNSS (single) | 28 1/2" to 28 5/8" | 27 1/4" to 27 5/16" | 23 1/2" min. | GE install PDF 31-2003973 Rev. 2, 09-26 |
How do the figures line up?
- Width: both makers' standard cutouts start at 28 1/2". GE allows up to 28‑5/8" for both of its ovens here.
- Height: GE lists 50‑1/4" minimum without the pedestal, or 51‑13/16" to 51‑15/16" with it. Bosch's standard range is 49 3/4" to 51 1/2". GE's with-pedestal range sits above Bosch's standard maximum. The JTS3000SNSS is a single oven, so its 27 1/4" to 27 5/16" height does not compare with the double ovens.
- Depth: GE lists 23‑1/2" minimum and Bosch lists 23 1/2" for its standard cutout.
