What you should know before purchasing a new oven
Posted On: November 16, 2021

If you are looking to replace your old oven with a brand new one, it's always a good idea to shop around and do some research before making a large purchase, especially since ovens have changed over the years and are now equipped with many different settings.


So, what should you look for in your new oven? 


  1. Style: Style is an essential factor when choosing your next oven. By this, we mean whether you want the stovetop separate from the oven. You can choose from a countertop cooktop and an in-wall oven.
  2. Type: Ovens can come in gas, electric, induction, and dual ranges. All of which have their benefits. Choosing the right one depends on your cooking style. Gas ranges offer even heat distribution, but some people are wary of an open flame. However, they do come in handy if the power goes out. Electric is the most common type of oven and can come with coil or ceramic ranges. They are also easier to clean. Induction ranges have advanced technology that makes heating your food much faster. Dual ovens use a mixture of gas and electricity, which can evenly bake food.
  3. Cooktop features: New ovens and cooktops come with various features such as open or closed burners (available on gas ranges), power or simmer burners, and dual elements that make them adaptable to different sizes, hot surface indicators, downfall exhausts, and induction range. 
  4. Oven features: Like stovetops, ovens can come with different features such as dehydration, steam cook, convection, self-clean, steam-clean, and auto-off. There is also an option to add a warming drawer to keep food warm while others are cooking. Some even come with a Sabbath setting that allows Jewish faith users to use the oven during the holidays. 
  5. Popular range types: There are three popular ranges: Freestanding, slide-in, and drop-in, and they are available in gas, electric, and induction ranges. 

With all these features, it can be hard to choose the right oven for your family. And if you're choosing to switch from an electric to a gas range, it's essential to know it will require the installation of a gas line, which could cost you more money.
