Today’s homeowners want top-of-the-line options when it comes to their appliances. They want to juggle multiple dishes at once while feeling confident that everything will be ready on time. They want fresh cookies baking in the oven while the roast reaches a perfect temperature — and they refuse to skimp on sides.

Discover the Benefits of a Double Oven Gas Range

Find out why a double oven gas range is a perfect option for your home today!

Modern appliance companies are responding to calls from customers. They have developed free-standing double ovens that are built below gas ranges. Now you can have the benefits of a double oven without losing precious cabinet space. You can also enjoy some of the most advanced burner designs on the market. 

If you want to update your kitchen, consider a double oven gas range. Here are five benefits of this appliance and a few top options to consider for your home. 

1. Cook Dishes at Different Temperatures

One of the main benefits of having a double oven is the flexibility that comes with your temperature control. It’s impossible to cook two dishes at different temperatures in the same oven. If you only have one oven, you risk creating undercooked or overdone food.

With a double oven, you can set temperatures to drastically different levels without affecting the quality of the food. You can keep bread rolls warm in the upper oven while you broil the main course in the lower one. You can bake cookies while you prepare meat. This flexibility makes cooking faster and less stressful.

2. Don’t Sacrifice Wall Space for a Double Oven

A double oven gas range offers all of the perks of a standard double oven without taking away wall space. Even if you have a spacious kitchen, you don’t want to give up part of a wall (and likely multiple cabinets) to accommodate double ovens. Instead, you can find a gas range with double ovens built-in. This provides the flexibility of two oven cooking while only taking up the space of a single appliance.  

3. Conserve Energy on Small Meals

You don’t have to have a big family or a penchant for throwing parties in order to benefit from a gas range with a double oven. The top oven is smaller than the lower option, which means it is ideal for cooking small meals without having to heat up the entire appliance. You can quickly reheat pizza or prepare dinner in a more energy-efficient manner.

The oven will heat faster because there is less space to fill, and it can also cook quickly when you turn it off. 

4. Enjoy the Flexibility of Five Burners

A larger oven also means you have additional resources on your stovetop. Most modern double ovens that are built into gas ranges have at least five burners — each one providing a different cooking size and power to customers. You can cook a delicate sauce on a small burner on low or quickly boil pasta on the largest burner available. With five burners and two ovens, you could have seven different dishes cooking at once.

5. Easily Control Stove Temperatures With Gas

Home cooks often debate the merits of using electric heat versus gas. Gas is often preferred because it offers more control to users. You can determine how high you want the flames to be and how close they are to the pot. Additionally, gas gets hot immediately. You don’t have to wait for an electric burner to get warm.

If you are interested in a double oven gas range, explore some of the top models on the market to find the right one for you.
