Stove/Oven Height. When it comes to height, there are some variations. Average heights for a stove/oven combo are either 37.25 inches or 47 inches, depending on the manufacturer. The most common height of 36 inches accommodate standard counter heights.
The oven in a standard stove is about 5 cubic feet, although smaller units or standard-size appliances with large storage or warming drawers may have as little as 2 cubic feet. Commercial-style stoves tend to have bigger ovens, up to 6.1 cubic feet, and may feature one large oven with a smaller 2- or 3-cubic-foot oven.
