<h2><a id="common"></a>Common Cooktop Issues</h2>
<p>The first step in any repair or replacement project is to diagnose the issue. Here are a few common problems you may experience as your cooktop ages.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>You have an unstable electrical connection. </strong>This can prevent your electric or induction stovetops from turning on and heating reliably.</li>
<li><strong>Your cookware is incompatible. </strong>This is a common issue with homeowners <a href="https://www.mrappliance.com/blog/induction-cooktop-problems/" target="_blank">using induction for the first time</a>.</li>
<li><strong>The heating elements are cracked or damaged. </strong>If you handle your cookware violently, you could damage the heating surface.&nbsp;</li>
<li><strong>The ignition doesn&rsquo;t work. </strong>This can make <a href="https://simcogroup.com.au/blog/post/common-gas-cooktop-issues-and-how-to-solve-them/" target="_blank">turning on a gas cooktop</a> frustrating or impossible.</li>
<li><strong>The burners weaken or turn off unexpectedly. </strong>This can occur with any type of stove and is caused by a variety of issues. There could be electrical damage or fuel source problems for gas stoves.</li>
<li><strong>The cooktop is slow. </strong>As stoves age, they may take longer to heat up because they are wearing out.</li>
<li><strong>Your stovetop makes new and unfamiliar noises. </strong>Something could fall out of place, causing an unwanted tapping, clicking, or humming. Your stove might also get louder suddenly.</li>
</ul>
<p>Keep in mind that there may be more than one issue preventing your cooktop from working. Just because you fix one problem doesn&rsquo;t mean another needs to be addressed.</p>
<h2><a id="cost"></a>What is the Average Cost of Cooktop Repair?</h2>
<p>The next step after diagnosing the issue is to estimate what it could cost to fix it. As of 2024, the average <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-do-kitchen-appliance-repairs-cost.htm" target="_blank">cost of cooktop repair is $178</a>. On the low end, you could pay between $50 to $100 to get your cooktop working again. On the high end, you could pay nearly $400 to address the issue.</p>
<p>Several factors contribute to appliance service costs. The first is the issue itself. Minor problems that are easy to address will be cheaper to fix than major issues. The next factor is the brand and model of the appliance. Higher-end brands typically come with larger repair bills. Additionally, the cost of gas cooktop repair and electric cooktop repair may differ depending on who is working on your appliance.</p>
<p>The final factor is your geographic region. Cooktop repair is more expensive in some parts of the country because of the higher cost of living. This means you will pay more for hourly repair rates.</p>
<p>Get an estimate for what your cooktop repair bill will be so you can decide whether fixing the stove or replacing it is the better option.</p>
<h2><a id="repairreplace"></a>Should You Repair or Replace a Broken Cooktop</h2>
<p>The final step is to decide whether you should invest in cooktop repair or if <a href="https://www.tonysappliance.com/catalog/cooktops" target="_blank">replacing your stove</a> is the better financial decision. Evaluate your repair estimate against the cost of replacing your stove. For example, if a repair technician says it will cost $200 to fix your cooktop and you expect to spend $1,000 to replace it, you could put that $200 into a new model instead.</p>
<p>Replacing your cooktop could also be a better option if you have an aging appliance. It could break again in the future, leaving you with another repair bill. You don&rsquo;t want to keep putting money into repairing an aging appliance that will just need more work.</p>
<p>Another factor to consider is the value of your current cooktop. If you paid $1,000 for your cooktop five years ago, it will have depreciated significantly. It also could be at the halfway point in its lifespan. You don&rsquo;t want to put a lot of money into cooktop parts and repair services to maintain a stove that has lost a lot of its value.</p>
<p>When deciding <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/repair-or-replace-cooktop.htm" target="_blank">whether repair or replacement is better</a>, consider the value and lifespan of your current appliance. You may decide that starting fresh with a new model is a better investment than paying to keep an aging appliance alive.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<h2><a id="top"></a>4 Top Cooktops To Replace Your Broken Appliance</h2>
<p>If you decide that replacing your cooktop is the right decision, invest in a quality appliance that will last for several years. Here are a few tried-and-tested cooktops that will keep up with your cooking needs.</p>
<h3>GE&reg; 30" Stainless Steel Built-In Gas Cooktop</h3>
<p><img alt="GE 30in Built In Gas Cooktop" src="https://d6y5eqdcxq8w3.cloudfront.net/assets/blog/blog_appliances/ge-30in-stainless-steel-built-in-gas-cooktop.webp?w=400" title="GE Gas Cooktop" /></p>

<p>Upgrade to a modern gas cooktop that has more features and cooking space than ever. This model is only 30 inches wide but has five burners to work off of. The largest burner fires up to 15,000 BTU for rapid boiling or searing meat. The knobs on this <a href="https://www.tonysappliance.com/blog/ge-gas-range-five-top-models-reviewed" target="_blank">gas cooktop</a> are strategically placed at the front so you don&rsquo;t have to reach over a hot surface to adjust your power levels.</p>

<p>Consider this appliance if you want a little extra cooking space in your kitchen. At 36 inches wide, you have ample room for your pots and pans. The knobs have LED backlighting so you can easily see which burners are on. Caf&eacute; allows you to customize your hardware, so you can choose from six different finishes that perfectly complement your kitchen.&nbsp;</p>
<p>We thought this review was helpful, &ldquo;Caf&eacute; has always been reliable. The burners work great, the different size burners are convenient, for a cooktop it is heavy duty, and the gas lock button is a great safety feature.&rdquo;</p>

<p>This is a leading electric cooktop that changes how you think about cooking. The control knobs are built along the right-hand side, tapping into the natural ergonomics of the body. There are four total heating elements, including two that reach 2,500 watts for rapid boiling. The hot surface indicator light on this <a href="https://www.tonysappliance.com/blog/six-best-electric-stoves-of-the-year" target="_blank">electric stove</a> is a valuable safety feature that can prevent you from burning your hands or your food.</p>

<h2><a id="faq"></a>FAQ</h2>
<h3>What is the life expectancy of a cooktop?</h3>
<p>The average cooktop is designed to last between 10 to 15 years. However, this lifespan depends on the brand, maintenance, and usage of the appliance. If you buy a cooktop from a trusted brand and it is well-cared for, it could last up to 20 years.</p>
<h3>When should I replace my cooktop?</h3>
<p>Kitchen appliances depreciate over time, which means there is less value in repairing old cooktops. Consider replacing your cooktop if it is more than five years old or the cost or repairing it exceeds its value. You don&rsquo;t want to keep putting money into a cooktop that isn&rsquo;t worth much.</p>

<h2><a id="sizes"></a>Understanding Standard Dishwasher Sizes</h2>
<p><img alt="Placing Dishes in Dishwasher" height="333" src="https://d6y5eqdcxq8w3.cloudfront.net/assets/blog/blog_appliances/Dishwasher-tips-header.jpg?w=500" title="Filling a Dishwasher with Dirty Dishes" width="500" /></p>
<p>Shopping for a new dishwasher? One of the first steps is knowing what size will actually fit your space&mdash;and your lifestyle. Whether you&rsquo;re upgrading your kitchen or replacing an older model, getting familiar with standard dishwasher dimensions is key to a smooth installation.</p>
<h3>Full-Size, Compact, and Custom Panel-Ready Options</h3>
<p>Most dishwashers fall into one of three main size categories. A full-size dishwasher typically measures around 24 inches wide, 24 inches deep, and 35 inches high, making it ideal for families or anyone who runs frequent loads. Compact dishwashers are usually about 18 inches wide and work well in smaller kitchens, apartments, or as a secondary unit in a wet bar or guest area. If you&rsquo;re aiming for a sleek, built-in look, custom panel-ready dishwashers allow you to match the appliance with your cabinetry&mdash;though these often require more careful measurements and design coordination.</p>
<h3>Measuring Your Kitchen Space</h3>
<p>Before making any decisions, grab a tape measure and check the height, width, and depth of your current dishwasher opening. Don&rsquo;t forget to measure the space from the floor to the underside of your countertop, especially if you&rsquo;ve updated flooring since your last installation. Accurate dishwasher measurements will help you avoid the <a href="https://www.thespruce.com/dishwasher-buying-tips-1907656" target="_blank">frustration of buying</a> something that&rsquo;s just a hair too big&mdash;or too small.</p>
<h3>Depth and Clearance Considerations</h3>
<p>Even if the appliance itself fits, remember to allow for door clearance and space to load and unload comfortably. Some dishwashers have deeper interiors, so understanding dishwasher dimensions can help ensure you won&rsquo;t bump into cabinets or walls every time you open the door.</p>
<p>Getting the right fit isn&rsquo;t just about convenience&mdash;it can also save you from unnecessary installation headaches. So before you fall in love with a sleek stainless steel model or a top-of-the-line panel-ready design, double-check your kitchen layout and measurements to make sure it&rsquo;s a match.</p>

<p>Once you&rsquo;ve picked out the perfect dishwasher, the next step is making sure your kitchen is ready for it. Installing a dishwasher isn&rsquo;t just about sliding it into place&mdash;there are a few key requirements you&rsquo;ll want to keep in mind to avoid hiccups.</p>
<h3>1: Electrical, Plumbing, and Drainage Needs</h3>
<p>All dishwashers&mdash;whether it's a built in dishwasher or a panel ready dishwasher&mdash;require access to electricity, a water supply, and a proper drainage connection. Typically, you&rsquo;ll need a 120-volt outlet and a dedicated circuit. Most dishwashers also hook into your kitchen's hot water line and connect to the drain under your sink. If you're not sure what&rsquo;s behind your cabinets, it's a good idea to have a professional take a look before installation.</p>
<h3>2: Clearance for Doors and Loading</h3>
<p>Dishwashers may look compact, but you&rsquo;ll need to ensure there&rsquo;s enough space in front of the unit to fully open the door and load dishes comfortably. Plan for at least 27&ndash;30 inches of clearance in front of the appliance. Also, be mindful of adjacent cabinets or drawers that might block access when everything is open.</p>
<h3>3: Built-In vs. Portable Dishwashers</h3>
<p>Built in dishwashers are the most common and offer a sleek, integrated look. They&rsquo;re ideal for kitchens where space is already set aside beneath the countertop. A <a href="https://www.tonysappliance.com/catalog/dishwashers?custom_panel_ready=Yes" target="_blank">panel ready dishwasher</a> takes this a step further by blending into your cabinetry with a custom front panel. <a href="https://www.tonysappliance.com/catalog/portable-dishwasher" target="_blank">Portable dishwashers</a>, on the other hand, are great for smaller kitchens or rentals&mdash;they don&rsquo;t require permanent installation and can be rolled away when not in use. The trade-off? They typically offer less capacity and might take up floor space.</p>
<p>No matter which type you choose, ensuring your kitchen meets the basic installation requirements will make the setup process faster, easier, and stress-free.</p>

<h2><a id="choosing"></a>Choosing the Right Dishwasher for Your Kitchen</h2>
<p><img alt="Child Helping Empty Dishwasher" height="334" src="https://d6y5eqdcxq8w3.cloudfront.net/assets/blog/blog_appliances/dishwasher-not-cleaning-well_clean-dishes.jpg?w=500" title="Helping Empty a Dishwasher" width="500" /></p>
<p><a href="https://www.popularmechanics.com/home/g35900013/best-dishwashers/" target="_blank">Picking the right dishwasher</a> isn&rsquo;t just about features&mdash;it&rsquo;s also about finding one that fits seamlessly into your kitchen&rsquo;s style and setup. With so many options available, it&rsquo;s worth taking a little time to think about how your new dishwasher will look and function in your space.</p>
<h3>Match Your Style with Your Layout</h3>
<p>Start by thinking about your kitchen&rsquo;s layout. Do you have a traditional setup with defined cabinet spaces, or an open-concept design where aesthetics are front and center? If you&rsquo;re remodeling or upgrading, look for models that match your cabinetry and flow naturally with your kitchen&rsquo;s traffic patterns. Compact or slim dishwashers are great for smaller kitchens, while full-size models suit households that run frequent loads.</p>
<h3>Design Tips for a Seamless Look</h3>
<p>When it <a href="https://www.thespruce.com/dishwasher-buying-tips-1907656" target="_blank">comes to style</a>, dishwashers have come a long way. Stainless steel finishes are still a fan favorite for a clean, modern look, but if you want something that blends in more, consider a panel-ready dishwasher that matches your cabinetry. It gives your kitchen a custom, built-in feel without compromising performance. For an appliance that looks as good as it works, visit a local dishwasher store like <a href="https://www.tonysappliance.com/contacts" target="_blank">Tony&rsquo;s Appliance</a>, where you can see different models in person.</p>
<h3>Know When to Bring in the Pros</h3>
<p>While it might be tempting to DIY the installation, dishwashers involve plumbing, electrical, and precision fitting. If you&rsquo;re not 100% confident, it&rsquo;s best to consult a professional. Not only will this ensure everything works correctly, but it&rsquo;ll also protect your kitchen from potential leaks or electrical issues down the line.</p>

<h2><a id="faq"></a>FAQ: The Complete Guide to Dishwasher Size and Installation Requirements</h2>
<p><img alt="Frequently Asked Questions" src="https://d6y5eqdcxq8w3.cloudfront.net/assets/blog/prosource_member_blogs/Frequently-Asked-Questions-Woman.jpg?w=500" title="FAQ Section" /></p>
<h4>What are the standard dishwasher dimensions?</h4>
<p>Most standard built-in dishwashers measure approximately 24 inches wide, 24 inches deep, and 34 to 35 inches high. Compact models are usually around 18 inches wide. Always check the specific measurements before purchasing to ensure a proper fit.</p>
<h4>How do I measure my kitchen space for a dishwasher?</h4>
<p>Use a tape measure to get the height, width, and depth of the cabinet opening where your dishwasher will go. Don&rsquo;t forget to account for door clearance and any plumbing or electrical hookups behind the unit. It's also helpful to leave a little extra space for ventilation.</p>
<h4>What&rsquo;s the difference between a built-in and a portable dishwasher?</h4>
<p>A built-in dishwasher is permanently installed under your countertop and connects directly to your home&rsquo;s plumbing. A portable dishwasher, on the other hand, can be moved and typically connects to your kitchen faucet. Built-ins offer a seamless look, while portables are ideal for small kitchens or renters.</p>
<h4>Are panel-ready dishwashers worth it?</h4>
<p>If you're aiming for a custom kitchen look, panel-ready dishwashers are a great option. They&rsquo;re designed to be fitted with a cabinet front that matches the rest of your kitchen, blending in with your cabinetry for a sleek, integrated appearance.</p>
<h4>Do I need a professional to install my dishwasher?</h4>
<p>While some handy homeowners may tackle installation themselves, it&rsquo;s usually best to hire a professional. Installing a dishwasher involves plumbing, electrical, and leveling requirements. A pro can ensure it&rsquo;s done safely and correctly, avoiding leaks or long-term issues.</p>

<h2><a id="understanding"></a>Understanding the Basics of Water Heater Replacement</h2>
<p><img alt="Water Heater Connected Throughout Home" height="521" src="https://d6y5eqdcxq8w3.cloudfront.net/assets/blog/blog_appliances/ge-50-gallon-gray-electric-water-heater.webp?w=500" title="Water Heater Connections" width="500" /></p>
<p>If your hot showers are getting shorter or your utility room floor has suspicious puddles, it might be time to think about replacing a water heater. Most traditional units last around 8&ndash;12 years, and if yours is reaching that age&mdash;or showing signs like leaks, strange noises, or inconsistent hot water&mdash;it could be on its way out. Being proactive can save you from emergency repairs and unexpected cold water wake-up calls.</p>
<p>There are two main types of water heaters to consider: tank and tankless. Tank water heaters store a set amount of hot water and are great for larger households with high water use. On the other hand, tankless models heat water on demand and are known for their energy efficiency and space-saving design. The best option depends on your home&rsquo;s water needs and your long-term goals.</p>
<p>Don&rsquo;t forget that water heater size matters, too. A unit that&rsquo;s too small won&rsquo;t keep up, while an oversized one can waste energy. If you&rsquo;re not sure what fits your home best, a professional can help you choose the right model and capacity.</p>

<h2><a id="costs"></a>Breaking Down the Costs</h2>
<p><img alt="How Much Does it Cost" height="333" src="https://d6y5eqdcxq8w3.cloudfront.net/assets/blog/blog_appliances/How-Much-Does-it-Cost.jpg?w=500" title="Cost and How Much" width="500" /></p>
<p>When it comes to replacing a hot water heater, knowing what to expect financially can make the process much smoother. On average, the cost of a new unit and professional installation ranges anywhere from $800 to $3,500, depending on a few key factors. For example, a standard 30 gal water heater might be more budget-friendly, while a 50 gallon gas hot water heater or 40 gallon gas hot water heater can cost more due to their larger capacity and fuel type.</p>
<p>Several elements impact the overall price. Unit size plays a big role&mdash;larger households need larger tanks, which come with a higher price tag. Energy efficiency also matters; models with higher efficiency ratings often cost more upfront but save you money on utility bills over time. The fuel type (gas vs. electric) and labor costs for installation will vary depending on your location and the complexity of the job.</p>
<p>Don&rsquo;t forget to factor in additional costs. You may need to pay for permits, removal of the old unit, and upgrades to plumbing or electrical systems if your new <a href="https://www.nerdwallet.com/article/mortgages/water-heater-cost" target="_blank">water heater</a> has different requirements. These extras can add a few hundred dollars to the final bill&mdash;but they&rsquo;re crucial for a safe and code-compliant installation. By understanding these costs ahead of time, you&rsquo;ll be better prepared to choose the right water heater for your home and budget.</p>

<h2><a id="investment"></a>Making a Smart Investment</h2>
<p><img alt="Professional Hand Shake" height="375" src="https://d6y5eqdcxq8w3.cloudfront.net/assets/blog/prosource_member_blogs/Professional-Hand-Shake.jpg?w=500" title="Hand Shake" width="500" /></p>
<p>Choosing the right water heater isn&rsquo;t just about getting hot water back quickly&mdash;it&rsquo;s about making a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-water-heater-installation-cost.htm" target="_blank">smart, long-term investment</a> for your home. Start by thinking about your household&rsquo;s hot water usage. Do you have a busy family with multiple bathrooms, or are you in a smaller household with lighter needs? A gas water heater might be best for high-demand homes, while an electric water heater could suit smaller spaces or homes without natural gas access.</p>
<p>Energy efficiency is another big factor to consider. While energy-efficient models may cost more upfront, they can significantly lower your monthly utility bills over time. Wondering how much does a hot water heater cost? Prices vary, but comparing the long-term operating costs&mdash;not just the sticker price&mdash;can help you see where real savings add up.</p>
<p>When it comes to installation, don&rsquo;t be afraid to shop around. Look for licensed professionals like at Tony&rsquo;s Appliance with solid local reviews, and get multiple quotes so you can compare <a href="https://www.tonysappliance.com/services" target="_blank">pricing and services</a>. A trusted installer can walk you through the entire process, help ensure proper sizing, and even assist with permit requirements.</p>
<p>Finally, take time to review warranty options and schedule regular maintenance to extend your water heater&rsquo;s lifespan. Most units last 8&ndash;12 years, but with proper care&mdash;and a good warranty&mdash;you can protect your investment and enjoy reliable hot water for years to come.</p>

                  Electric water heaters generally cost less upfront and are easier to install.

<h2><a id="basics"></a>Understanding the Basics: Cooktops vs. Ranges</h2>

<p>Before making your decision, it helps to understand what sets a cooktop apart from a range. Each has its own setup, design, and practical benefits depending on your kitchen layout and cooking needs.</p>
<h3>Cooktops</h3>
<p>A <a href="https://www.tonysappliance.com/catalog/cooktops" target="_blank">cooktop</a> is a flat cooking surface installed directly into your countertop. It operates independently from the oven, which can be installed separately at a more convenient height.</p>
<ul>
<li>Offers flexibility in kitchen layout and design</li>
<li>Available in gas, electric, and induction models</li>
<li>Often paired with a wall oven for customized setups</li>
</ul>
<h3>Ranges</h3>
<p>A <a href="https://www.tonysappliance.com/catalog/ranges" target="_blank">range</a> combines both a cooktop and an oven in one freestanding or slide-in appliance. It's a popular choice for those looking for a space-efficient and all-in-one cooking solution.</p>
<ul>
<li>Includes burners on top and an oven below</li>
<li>Easy to install in a single location</li>
<li>Common in many traditional and modern kitchens</li>
</ul>
<h3>Key Differences to Consider</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Design:</strong> Cooktops allow for more flexible kitchen designs; ranges are compact and self-contained</li>
<li><strong>Installation:</strong> Cooktops are built into the counter; ranges simply slide into place</li>
<li><strong>Functionality:</strong> Ranges offer a combined unit; cooktops require separate ovens</li>
</ul>
<p>If you're shopping in the Burnsville, MN area and want expert help comparing options, Tony&rsquo;s Appliance has a wide selection of high-performance cooktops and ranges, along with the guidance to help you choose the best fit for your kitchen.</p>

<p>Choosing between a cooktop and a range depends on how you use your kitchen, the space available, and your <a href="https://www.tonysappliance.com/catalog/cooking" target="_blank">personal cooking style</a>. Here&rsquo;s a breakdown of the benefits and things to think about before you decide:</p>
<h3>Advantages of Cooktops</h3>
<p>Cooktops offer a sleek, modern look and give you more freedom in how you design your kitchen.</p>
<ul>
<li>More flexibility with placement&mdash;install anywhere on the countertop</li>
<li>Pair with a wall oven to create a custom cooking station</li>
<li>Clean, streamlined design ideal for modern kitchens</li>
<li>Easier to access without bending over to use an oven</li>
</ul>
<h3>Advantages of Ranges</h3>
<p>Ranges combine a cooktop and oven into one appliance, making them a practical and efficient choice.</p>
<ul>
<li>All-in-one convenience&mdash;great for tight spaces</li>
<li>Typically easier and more cost-effective to install</li>
<li>Popular in traditional kitchen layouts</li>
<li>Wide variety of styles and sizes available</li>
</ul>
<h3>Things to Consider</h3>
<p>Before shopping at Tony&rsquo;s Appliance in Burnsville, MN, keep these factors in mind:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Budget:</strong> Ranges often cost less than buying a cooktop and wall oven separately</li>
<li><strong>Kitchen layout:</strong> Cooktops work best in open designs, ranges are ideal for compact kitchens</li>
<li><strong>Cooking habits:</strong> Serious bakers may prefer a separate wall oven, while everyday cooks might enjoy the simplicity of a range</li>
</ul>
<p>Both options offer great features, and Tony&rsquo;s Appliance can help you weigh the pros and cons based on your specific needs.</p>

Here&rsquo;s how to <a href="https://www.maytag.com/blog/kitchen/range-vs-cooktop.html" target="_blank">narrow down your choice</a>:</p>
<h3>Assess Your Cooking Style and Daily Needs</h3>
<p>Start by thinking about how you cook each day.</p>
<ul>
<li>Do you bake or roast often? A separate wall oven with a cooktop might suit you best.</li>
<li>Need simplicity for quick family meals? A range offers easy all-in-one use.</li>
<li>Cooking for a crowd? Look for features like multiple burners or a double oven setup.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Evaluate Your Kitchen Space and Workflow</h3>
<p>Layout plays a big role in your decision.</p>
<ul>
<li>A range fits well in smaller kitchens or traditional layouts</li>
<li>A cooktop with a wall oven offers more flexibility in larger or custom kitchens</li>
<li>Consider how you move between prep, cook, and clean zones for a smooth workflow</li>
</ul>

<p>Seeing appliances in person makes a big difference.</p>

                  A cooktop is a built-in appliance that sits on your countertop and requires a separate wall oven. A range combines both a cooktop and oven in one freestanding unit, making it a space-saving, all-in-one solution.

              <div class="dsg-block-44__content-panel">
                <p class="dsg-block-44__text">
                  Yes, cooktops offer more design flexibility. Since they are installed independently of the oven, you can position them wherever it best suits your cooking workflow and aesthetic preferences.

                <p class="dsg-block-44__text">
                  Ranges tend to be more affordable because you’re buying one appliance instead of two. Cooktops and separate wall ovens often cost more due to installation and component pricing.

Should You Buy a Cooktop or Range? Complete Decision Guide

Find out which electric ranges we recommend for your kitchen. These appliances are available with a variety of features to choose from depending on your needs and budget.

<p>An electric range is a stove that uses electricity to cook food. They come in a variety of shapes and sizes, and some have features like warming drawers and convection cooking. Convection cooking means that the heat is circulated evenly throughout the oven, so your food cooks evenly. They offer a host of benefits that gas ranges simply can&rsquo;t match. Electric ranges heat up much faster than gas ranges, so you can start cooking sooner. Electric ranges produce less greenhouse gas emissions, and they don&rsquo;t release harmful pollutants into the air like some gas ranges do. They also come in a range of styles and finishes to match your kitchen and personal style. Our best electric ranges are designed to make your life a little bit easier. They&rsquo;re packed full of features that help you cook, warm up leftovers, and bake all your favorite dishes &ndash;without any stress or hassle.</p>

<h2><a id="howtochoose"></a>How to Choose an Electric Range</h2>
<p>When it comes time to buy a new electric range, it can be difficult to decide which one is right for you. There are so many different ranges out there with all sorts of features, so how do you know which one is best for your needs? Here are a few tips to help you choose the right electric range for your home:</p>
<p>-Consider the size of your kitchen. If you have a small kitchen, you don't want a huge electric range that will take up too much space. Choose a smaller electric range that will fit comfortably in your kitchen.</p>
<p>-Think about what you'll be using your electric range for. If you mainly just need it for basic cooking, a simpler electric range will do. But if you'll be using your electric range for more complex recipes, make sure to look for one with convection cooking and multiple burners.</p>
<p>-See what features are important to you. Maybe you don't care that much about looks but prefer a model with a warming drawer or built in microwave oven. Think about your needs before buying an electric range to ensure you get one that best fits your preferences.</p>
<h2><a id="faq"></a>Electric Range FAQ</h2>
<p><strong><em>Q: What are the different types of electric ranges?</em></strong></p>
<p>There are several different types of electric ranges. The most common type is the coil range, which has heating coils beneath the surface of the stovetop. These ranges are cheaper to purchase but they can be difficult to clean and they don't cook food as evenly as other types of ranges. Another type of electric range is the smooth top range. This range has a glass or ceramic top that is flat and easy to clean. The disadvantage of this type of range is that it can't be used with pots and pans that have a raised edge, such as <a target="_blank">cast iron skillets</a>. The third type of electric range is the double oven range. This range has two ovens - one on the top and one on the bottom. This type of range is best for those who like to cook large dishes or multiple dishes at once.</p>
<p><strong><em>Q: How much does an electric range cost?</em></strong><strong><em></em></strong></p>
<p>The best electric range should have features that will keep your dishes warm, cook food evenly and have lots of burners so you can cook more than one thing at a time.</p>
<p>With all these features available in one appliance, an electric range is the best addition for any kitchen. The best electric ranges cost between $700-2000 but are well worth it if you are looking for something long-lasting with many options!</p>
