Cooking ranges

A cooking range is essential for people cooking in kitchens with limited space that still want to enjoy the advantages of a full-size stove and oven. A cooking range combines these two appliances into one, saving space and adding convenience to your daily cooking. There are three aspects to consider when choosing a cooking range: size and capacity, fuel type, and other considerations.

Choosing the perfect cooking range size

When you’re choosing a cooking range, you not only need to keep in mind the capacity of the oven, but also the number of burners or cooking zones on the stove. With some cookers, you even have the option of having two separate ovens, or an additional grill unit.

A standard cooker with a width of 60cm has a capacity of around 60 liters and 4 cooking zones, which is enough to cook delicious meals for a family of 5.

Slimline cookers with a width of 50cm save more space, but sacrifice capacity and size of the cooking zones, while range cookers are extra wide, adding more cooking zones and at least one more oven.

Choosing the perfect fuel type for your cooking range

You can usually choose between three fuel options for cooking ranges:

• Electric range: This combines an electric oven with an electric or induction stove, which saves you the effort of adding a gas supply to your home.
• Gas range: The combination of a gas oven with a gas stove is more cost efficient to run than the electric variant.
• Dual fuel cooking range: These cookers combine an electric oven with a gas stove, giving you the best of both worlds – uniform cooking in the oven and precise control of the stove.

Other considerations for cooking ranges

• Installation: If you’re opting for gas, consider the need for a gas supply in your house.
• Cleaning: An oven with catalytic, pyrolytic, or steam cleaning features will save you lots of time cleaning.
• Safety: With modern safety features like Electrolux’s flame failure devices, gas cookers are just as safe to use as electric ones.
