Picking the Right Gas Oven for You

Gas ovens inherently tend to have slightly less even heat distribution than their electric cousins. That makes choosing an oven with a high rating for cooking quality extremely important. Besides that, you should also account for size, reliability, features, and design elements when choosing the model for you.

For example, some gas ovens allow you to control them via a smartphone app. Others feature high-end knobs or powerful touch screens that react to the slighest touch. Design elements matter, too, like whether you decide to go for fingerprint-resistant stainless steel or a different finish to match your existing decor.

From cooking power and interior capacity to reliability ratings and customer satisfaction overall, choosing the perfect gas oven depends on a mix of factors that add up to either a quality appliance that will last for years to come or a total dud.

With that in mind, let's take a look at two of our favorite picks for gas ovens in 2019 and what makes them so special.

FAQs

What are the pros and cons of electric versus gas ovens?
Generally, electric ovens are able to distribute heat more evenly throughout the cooking space, though there are certainly exceptions. A high-end gas oven will heat more evenly than a low-end, budget electric oven any day of the week.

Electric ovens also tend to heat a bit more quickly than gas, which is interesting considering cooktops are the opposite.

Do I need a special hookup for a gas wall oven?
Yes, you'll either need an existing gas hookup in the space where your oven will go or the means to have one installed. It can be a bit more complicated than an electric oven, so keep that in mind when planning your kitchen renovation or new appliance set.
