A Guide to 24 Inch Stoves

There are many factors to consider when choosing your stove and one of the most important things to think about is if you want an electric or a gas range. Cooking with gas can be risky but so can cooking with electricity and they both have their pluses and minuses. The next most important thing to consider is budget because it is essential picking right the first time otherwise you will end up spending a lot more money than you wanted to – so spend your money right. Here is what we believe is important and what we feel are the best 24-inch stoves this year to buy.

Important Things To Consider When Buying A Stove

As mentioned above it is important to pick a stove which is on the right fuel you need. You can get gas, electric and even dual fuel ranges which give you the best of both worlds. You may even be interested in the types of stoves that offer two ovens where you can bake two different meals at different temperatures but at the same time. Most gas ranges are made for precision because they produce more BTU’s and this type of range is mostly used by professional cooks. Electric ovens give you precision on the oven temp but can be annoying if you have problems with your electric and you get power-cuts often in your area.

Think about your needs. Do you cook a lot? Do you cook often and for large groups of people or do you only cook for yourself? You can really narrow down your choice wisely if you know exactly what you are looking for. Do you really need a stove with 6 burners? Do you want white or stainless steel?

Next, you need to consider your budget. Don’t go looking at ovens you can’t afford but keep in mind that many outlets have sales on during holidays so be sure to wait and shop around before purchasing something.

Standard Features of Stoves

Most new models have a range of standard features and unless you are buying a really old stove then they should have all of these following features built in them.

Multiple and adjustable racks. Most standard ovens, of whatever size, come with two or more racks which can be adjusted depending on what you are cooking. Ovens come with a standard door lock which can be used for example when the oven is in self-cleaning mode. When an oven is set to self-cleaning, the inside of the oven can increase rapidly and this is designed to prevent burn injuries. All of the more modern ovens have a broil feature which allows you to apply high heat very close to the food. This is also known as an upside-down grill! This is a quick cooking method and can be used to brown and crisp off foods as well. Plenty of designs have been made with windows on the oven door so you can check the progress of your food without having to open the door and affect the temperature inside the oven. A lot of people buy ovens without a window but we recommend you get one with. Every oven will also have a standard light which can also be turned on and off manually which helps you to see the food clearly without having to stick a torch in the oven! All these features have been designed to make cooking both simple and swift. Make sure your oven has all these things before purchasing.

Avanti DER24P3S 24-Inch Electric Range With 4 Elements

We really love Avanti because they make top quality products at an affordable price and their designs are seriously luxurious. This model comes in stainless steel with a warming drawer underneath and has a 2.3 Cu. Ft. oven capacity size. This newer model has a backsplash to help keep things clean when frying and boiling and the steel used is of high durability meaning it won’t scratch or bend easily. Customers have given this one a thumbs up and if you want to go for all-electric then this is the one to choose. They don’t do this model in white yet which is a pain if you are looking for white appliances but their stainless steel models are snazzy and reliable.
