Joint between worktops and a slide-in cooker - minimise dirt trap

eehchristie

Wondering what solutions people have found to deal with the joint between worktops and a slide-in cooker.

I will be moving to a new house soon. I will completely redesign the kitchen and it will have granite worktops. The ceramic topped range style cooker comes with the house and I have decided to keep it as it is in immaculate condition. I have only ever had inset hobs before which limit the dirt traps. It seems to me that the potential for all sorts of debris to get down the back of a slide-in cooker is enormous - and indeed the sides. Yuk! As it is installed at the moment, it is not even level with the existing laminate worktop

What installation/design solutions work for Houzzers to minimise dirt? Photos would be a great help. Sorry about the quality of my photo.

    That little crevice between the range and the counter can collect crumbs, no matter how aligned they are! I try to avoid wiping crumbs across that boundary, but otherwise don't try to prevent them with any kind of plastic or other cover. I just clean them up every once in awhile by sliding a piece of paper or thin cardboard down the slot and pulling any errant crumbs out.
