My stove is about 76 cm wide, which is the most common size in the U.S. Two ovens side-by-side wouldn't be big enough to be useful. I've got sheet pans that are 30 x 43 cm. Two ovens over-and-under might work. I've seen some of those here, but the big oven is on the bottom, and I have my doubts about enjoying lifting a stuffed turkey from nearly floor level.

There are also 18" wide stoves with a rather small oven and two top burners, common in small apartmnets, also 24" wide stoves with four top burners but still a rather small oven. The most common stove width is 30", one large oven and four top burners Then there are 36" wide stoves with one over sized oven and six top burners. Next there are 48" wide stoves with one large oven and one small oven and six top burners. Lastly there are 60" stoves with two large ovens and six top burners. My first house came with a 48" stove with one large oven and one small oven but 4 top burners, one burner had a well that could be used as a stock pot or a deep fryer... I never used that feature. It also had a rotisserie in the large oven, never used that either. That stove was electric and I hated it. |

If I had one, I'd probably be cooking a lot of meals in the ovens. These days, I mostly cook stuff in a wok. I think it's odd that the big oven has the fan. It's usually small ovens that need forced circulation. |

I'm not sure why a gas oven would even need a fan. You'd have great circulation since the oven works like a chimney i.e., air flowing from the bottom to the top. I don't use the convection feature much. My daughter does though. If I make a Dutch baby, I can't use the fan - it just stunts the growth. A Dutch baby is a giant yorkie made with butter. https://www.amazon.com/photos/share/...xTFghEkAlGgb82 |

Popular here in the US is was is referred to as a "dual fuel range" that has gas hobs and an electric oven. This is an example of a range with double electric ovens (the larger is convection) and four gas hobs: http://tinyurl.com/yb5stg Wayne Boatwright == I have a gas hob and a double electric oven. The big oven has a fan but I can't turn it off. Yes, we have do gave the same ones as in that link but mine are separate. My ovens are in the wall. -- http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk |
