How to Choose the Best Kitchen Range and Oven

For anyone who loves to cook, the range is the kitchen’s most important element. It can also be the most expensive, which is why making the right choice is crucial.

Let us help you choose the cooking range that’s right for you. How many burners do you need? How quickly do you want to boil a pot of pasta water? Do you prefer a cooktop and a wall oven configuration? One oven or two? Electric or gas? Sometimes you don’t have the luxury to choose, but we have good selections for both. We’ll help you figure out what works with your cooking style, your design sense, and maybe even your color scheme.

We’ve learned that it’s worth spending money on a high-quality range that will last for decades. Explore our posts on wish-list ranges (if you’ve got the space and the budget, we tend to favor the six-burner, 36-inch professional-style range). For chateau-style ranges, check out our roundup of stellar models from France, Italy, and England. At the other end of the spectrum, we also explore the best ranges for tiny apartment.

Why shouldn’t your home’s modern-day hearth express your taste?
