I recently purchased a house where the kitchen was remodeled a couple of years ago and the previous owners installed built-in double ovens. The ovens looked a little narrow from the beginning, and after we moved in I discovered that my standard baking sheets fit, but my larger pans don’t. My stove at my old apt was on the small side, but my 15” wide bar pan still managed to squeeze in; no such luck with the “baby” ovens.
I can’t think of anyone I know that has built-in ovens so…Is this normal or did the previous owners cheap out?
I’m not complaining; I’m just curious.

Many of the early double ovens were quite narrow and the cabinets were narrow too. When they went to put new ovens in, they stayed with the same cabinets and had to go with narrow ovens. Usually 24" on the outside, the inside will be much more narrow.
There are 30" and 36" wide wall ovens, but they require a larger cabinet for installation.

I've had three, they all were small. I remodeled the last kitchen and bought a full size range and oven.

Yes, they have to fit in a standard cabinet.
