The Top 7 Gas Ranges And Stoves To Give Your Kitchen A Professional Upgrade

Whether you're a seasoned chef or just a culinary enthusiast, there are many reasons you should consider upgrading your kitchen with items like a professional gas range or stove. Inspired by high-end restaurant appliances, most professional-style gas ranges are made of durable and easy-to-clean stainless steel. They also feature precise temperature controls and more powerful burners than you'll find on a basic appliance. Bakers will enjoy larger ovens that can hold several cake pans or cookie trays at a time, while cooks appreciate having extra features like built-in griddles or grills. From versatile models featuring convection ovens and warming drawers to luxury options featuring Italian-made burners and polished accent knobs, we found seven gas ranges and stoves that will give your kitchen a professional upgrade.

You may have shied away from investing in a professional gas range from iconic brands like Viking because of the sky-high price tag. Luxury-brand models can cost over $35,000, which would pay for an awful lot of Michelin-starred meals. You can find commercial gas ranges for far less at restaurant supply stores, but these aren't recommended for residential use because of fire hazard risks that come with serious insurance implications.

Fortunately, there are affordable, commercial-style options out there from brands including Thor, KitchenAid, and ZLINE. We narrowed down our selections to gas ranges between $2,000 and $4,000, and each is rated 4 stars or higher. To focus on features that cater to a variety of cooking techniques, we only included professional gas ranges and stoves that are designed for serious home chefs.

Over 700 Home Depot reviewers have given the Cosmo 48 in. Haven Collection Double Oven Gas Range a 5-star review, praising its sleek, professional look along with its six powerful sealed gas burners. Available for $3,800 through Home Depot, this range comes with a griddle burner offering cooktop versatility, and it also features dual ovens with convection capabilities. Users say each oven holds heat like a champ, even if you're baking all day long. Thanks to a removable backsplash, the range can be freestanding or can slide in between your countertops.

High-powered burners? Check. Commercial convection fan? Check. Massive oven? Check. But it's the continuous cast iron grating that makes the Thor Kitchen 36 in. Freestanding Gas Range perfect if you're cooking for a crowd — it can accommodate even the largest stockpot out there. Buying this gas range from Walmart for $2,000 will save you hundreds of dollars over the prices at Home Depot and Lowe's. Reviewers from all three big-box stores give this range 5 stars thanks to its high-quality construction and outstanding performance for the price.

Do you want to try a unique kitchen color combination in 2025 without repainting your walls or refinishing your cabinets? If so, you should consider the Janska Professional 36 in. Gas Range. Available in a range of standard colors like stainless steel and black, it also comes in a lustrous, glossy blue that looks striking when paired with either the silver or gold hardware that come included. Reviewers say the convection oven and efficient burners make this range a standout. Find it regularly priced at Home Depot for $2,585.

The Mueller 48 in. Professional Freestanding Gas Range is a substantial kitchen appliance designed for a serious cook. Along with eight high-powered burners and dual ovens with stainless steel racks, reviewers rave about its beauty and quality construction. This $3,300 range comes with a removable and reversible griddle. The flat side is perfect for pancakes, while the ridged one can help you achieve perfect grill marks on seared foods. With an eye toward kitchen safety, this freestanding model also features tip-over brackets that help it stay securely in place.

If you've already put a double oven in your kitchen but want to give the space even more professional upgrades, you may be in the market for a gas cooktop. Reviewers say the ZLINE Autograph Edition 48 in. Legacy Gas Rangetop stands out, whether you choose a stainless steel or matte black finish. Offering many of the same features as other commercial-style ranges like a pre-seasoned cast iron griddle, it also has a hand-finished, solid porcelain cooktop that's easy to clean. This range comes with a limited lifetime warranty on its Italian-made burners.

If you want to upgrade your kitchen's look but space is limited, don't worry. Hundreds of reviewers highly recommend the Kucht Professional 30 in. Natural Gas Range, describing it as well-constructed, beautiful, and a game-changer in the cooking department. One of its standout features is a heavy-duty 21,000 BTU power burner capable of providing extremely high heat on demand. Users also love the telescoping stainless steel oven racks. It's another option that's more competitively priced from Walmart (where it's available for $2,300) than Lowe's or Home Depot.

The KitchenAid 30 in. Gas Convection Slide-In Range — another small, professional-style option — is available in gas, electric, and dual fuel models. Along with the spacious warming drawer, reviewers like that the oven features three racks capable of accommodating multiple dishes or trays at a time. It also includes a wireless probe for checking internal temperatures. A low-profile touchpad along the front of the cooktop allows you to control various temperature settings along with the oven's dough-proofing settings, self-cleaning feature, timer, and interior light.
