Looking for a new range or stove, but are uncertain where to begin? You may feel overwhelmed while buying a new range due to the wide variety of options available. From fuel type, oven capacity, and various widths, to finishes and special features, there can be many choices when it comes to selecting your new range. Understanding the differences between the various cooking options will give you more confidence when considering purchasing a range. Here are the differences:
- Cooktop: A flat surface built into a counter powered by gas, electricity, or induction to heat food.
- Oven: Installed into a wall cutout or near a cooktop used to bake, cook, and broil food.
- Range: A combined one-piece appliance featuring both a cooktop and an oven.
We at Bosch are here to help you navigate your shopping experience. We’ve prepared a list of questions you should consider as you prepare to find the right range/stove to fit your lifestyle and needs.
1. Fuel type - Gas, Induction, Dual-fuel or Electric?
2. Range Installation Sizing & Dimensions
Range sizes vary between freestanding and slide-in configurations. Our freestanding industrial style ranges are available in 30" and 36" width options to fit your kitchen sizing needs.

5. Color options: Stainless Steel or Black Stainless Steel
If you prefer a classic finish, stainless steel is the perfect match to any kitchen design and aesthetic.
Bosch black stainless steel is a bold yet timeless. It is made of a special material, not just a coating, so it helps guard against scratches and fingerprints to maintain its look.
