Top Features of KitchenAid Ranges
KitchenAid might be famous for its countertop appliances like stand mixers and blenders, but the company also makes home kitchen appliances. In fact, KitchenAid has carried a full range of kitchen appliances since the company was bought by Whirlpool in 1986. Prior to that, KitchenAid focused on stand mixers and dishwashers.
KitchenAid originally offered built-in stovetops and ovens, but they now offer a large selection of full ranges, cooktops, range tops, and ovens. KitchenAid appliances are high-quality, durable products for chefs and bakers of all levels. If you want to extend KitchenAid beyond your countertop, consider these KitchenAid ranges.

KitchenAid RangesTop Features of KitchenAid Ranges
KitchenAid has always had a reputation for convenience and ease of use. However, their home appliances have been underrated by many homeowners and kitchen remodelers. Even though KitchenAid appliances aren’t the most expensive, they are still high-end appliances with the same great features you would expect from KitchenAid.
KitchenAid ranges come in electric, gas, and dual fuel models, with all ovens using advanced convection technology. All KitchenAid ranges have some or all of these features:
- Easy Convect Conversion System: A convection oven automatically converts and adjusts settings for use with conventional oven recipes and cooking times.
- Even Heat True Convection: Sensitive baked goods always turn out better when an oven is accurately, consistently, and evenly heated.
- Satin glide racks: All models use patented satin glide racks. Max Racks hold large and heavy dishes, while roll-out extension racks help you with basting or other tasks while cooking.
- Multiple rack positions: There are up to 7 rack positions depending on the model to accommodate any sized pan or baked goods.
The price of a KitchenAid range is between $1,600 and $12,500. With similar high-end appliances averaging between $3000 and $7000 depending on brand and features, KitchenAid ranges are definitely worth the price tag.
Types of KitchenAid Ranges
There are several things to consider when you are shopping for a new range for your kitchen. Getting the right size and type of range is important for the functionality of your kitchen. Get the right stove to match your gas, electrical, and ventilation access. Some KitchenAid Downdraft ranges don’t require external ventilation.
Getting the right size is of the most importance. Measure the cutout in the counter where the range is to be installed. KitchenAid ranges are freestanding, so you can also place them elsewhere in the kitchen. A 30” range is best for a small or apartment kitchen, while a 48” commercial style range is the ultimate cooking appliance.
Here are features, benefits, and pros and cons of KitchenAid ranges by type to keep in mind while shopping for your next stove.
KitchenAid Gas Ranges
Gas ranges generally come in three sizes: 30”, 36”, and 48” Stoves. There are several different configurations to choose from, with models having five or more burners and a continuous grate for use with a griddle or large pan. Average KitchenAid gas ranges cost between $1099 and $2249, but they do offer more expensive commercial-grade gas ranges.
Best KitchenAid Gas Range: KitchenAid® 36" Free Standing Gas Range
This commercial-grade KitchenAid 36” gas range has six dual flame burners and three continuous grates for flexibility when cooking. This range is best for people who cook large meals at home, whether daily or on occasion.
KitchenAid ranges might not be big on technical features, but the power they put behind your cooking and baking efforts cannot be denied. This gas range is on the high-end of KitchenAid appliances. Reviewers rave about the powerful cooking and baking capabilities better than average at a reasonable price.

KitchenAid Electric Ranges
KitchenAid has been manufacturing ovens and stovetops since 1986, but the first induction cooktop wasn’t released from the brand until 2008. Since that time, they have been working to improve their electric range options.
KitchenAid electric ranges are gaining in popularity as individuals and communities try to move away from gas appliances. Electric ranges are also cheaper to run than gas ranges.
KitchenAid electric ranges are only available in the standard 30” range size. These ranges are designed with the avid baker in mind. Reviews swear by their electric ovens, double ovens, and baking drawers.
Best KitchenAid Induction Range: KitchenAid® 30" Stainless Steel Slide In Electric Induction Range
This standard KitchenAid induction range has the same convection features as other KitchenAid ranges.
The electric ranges from KitchenAid range in price from $1099 to $3239, depending on features. The high-end KitchenAid electric range models feature baking drawers, double ovens, or Downdraft ventilation technology. Electric ranges are best for the casual every-day cook.

These ranges are ideal for the all-around chef. They give you the temperature and flame control needed for cooking and the even convection heating needed for flawless baked goods.
KitchenAid dual fuel ranges come in 30”, 36”, and 48” models. These models are an easy way to up your appliance game without a huge investment.
