Ranges
When shopping for a range, you'll first need to decide between an electric, oil, gas, solid fuel, or dual-fuel range. If you're replacing an older range, then it's easiest to use the existing power supply, but if you are building or carrying out major rennovation work, you probably have a choice. Electric ranges are usually less expensive. Some budget electric ranges still offer coil elements, which are cheaper to repair but harder to clean. Experts also praise electric ovens for cooking more evenly than their gas counterparts.

Gas ranges, on the other hand, cost a bit less to operate, and many cooks find the cooktop temperature settings easier to control since you can see the flame. Dual-fuel ranges offer the best of both worlds, but they are much more expensive to buy and install.

Oil and solid fuel ranges are a great way to combine cooking with central heating for the home.
