Reviewed by:

Cooking foods at different temperatures in the same oven can be a challenge. This standard-width gas range has a double oven (one large, one small) that solves the problem. The extra space is achieved by eliminating the broil/utility drawer at the stove's bottom.

The upper oven is 1.2 cubic feet and the lower oven is a spacious 4 cubic feet. The two ovens have individual controls and can warm, broil, bake and self-clean. The cooktop has a 16,000 BTU burner, two 9,200 BTU burners and a 5,000 BTU simmer burner. The cast-iron burner grates and caps are easily removed and are dishwasher safe. Price as shown (stainless steel) is $1,859 (November 2004).
