Each side wall of the oven, which is formed of two flanged pressings 23, 24 enclosing heat-insulating material, is supported on a lip 29 on the shield 21; when the latter is removed by undoing the screws 22 the wall may be drawn down and lifted out. The back of the oven also formed of flanged pressings 30, 31 is detachably secured to the bar 18 by screws 32 and an oven flue 16 is incorporated in the plate 14 which closes in the back of the grill chamber. The cooker is preferably installed in a recess of greater width than the oven and the hot-plate 39 is made the full width of the recess, this arrangement providing a space at the side for housing the gas supply pipe and a governor 42, Fig. 3. The recess may be built in at each side as shown at 43 and the cooker front 34 formed with a flange 44 which contacts a tile facing 45 on the built-in, portions 43.
