Whether you are considering upgrading your kitchen or a complete renovation, the purchase of a GE XL44 Gas Range is at the top of your considerations. But purchasing a new stove is not a simple matter. There are several choices to be made from the beginning. Making the wrong choice here will only cause you years of regret. Notwithstanding, making these errors is not inevitable.Here are the Top 5 Oven Purchasing Options; follow them and you won’t regret your purchase.

Slide-in, Drop-in, Wall or Free-Standing?

1. Fitting in seamless with the counters and cabinets are the drop-in and wall ovens, which also requires the assistance of someone who knows how to install them. A slide-in range is one in which there are little ‘wings’ on the top sides; these wings sit on top of the counter and also give the slide-in an integrated seamless appearance. The dashboard is in the front of all of these types of ranges. The free-standing models, such as this GE freestanding gas range,  do not overlap the counters, which can allow for food particles to fall down in between the range and cabinets, but they are cheap and you can install it yourself.

2. Oven Here, Cooktop There, or All-in-One Range and Cooktop?

A combination range that has the cooktop and the stove in one unit is the simplest way to go if you want inexpensive, or to do it yourself, or are short on space. Assuming you have enough space, a cooktop physically separated from the range is something to consider if you are in the midst of a renovation, as you already have someone who can install at your home.

3. Electric vs. Gas

For some of you this decision is made for you: If you don’t have gas, then, you can’t do anything other than electric; or, in case your home doesn’t have 220 volts, gas will have to be the option. Supposing you do have options here, which one do you choose?
