The Best 48-Inch Gas Range for Your Kitchen

A kitchen is a place when you can cook up some delicious – and nutritious – food for your family and friends. And it is also a place where the magic happens at family gatherings. But, have you ever found yourself in a predicament where you had to cook your food in shifts? You know, when there is not enough burners or space in the oven.  This is a common problem, and many home chefs find themselves having to work hard to re-heat or keep items warm while others cook – or serve a cold main dish with warm sides (or vice versa).  Did you know there is a solution to this dilemma? Yes, there sure is. It’s called a 48-inch gas range that offers you a large amount of cooking and baking space. So, ready to make your life a bit easier – and your entire meal a bit warmer (at the same time)? The following are four must-have ranges. You are sure to find the best 48-inch gas range for your kitchen. 

Why Gas?

If you have ever had any experience in a commercial kitchen – or the opportunity to speak to a professional chef – then you know that most of these stoves are fueled by gas. The reason being is that gas offers instant heat while it is on and no heat while it is off. The purpose of this? Precision.  If you turn on your burner, how long do you want to have to wait for that burner to heat up? You don’t right? Well, a gas burner provides heat instantly. The research will tell you that gas stoves can boil water faster than those powered by electricity. The best part is when you turn a gas burner off. Unlike their electric counterparts, gas stoves halt heat immediately, reducing the chance that you will overcook your food. What type of gas is best? Well, this is based on both personal preference and what is most efficiently available in your area. For this reason, Thor Kitchen offers a convenient conversion kit for their gas ranges that allow you to choose between both natural gas and propane.

Well, it means that no matter how much you use your gas range, it will always look s a beautiful as it did the day it was installed.
