Range Shopping Basics – Gas or Electric?

The first decision when range shopping is whether you want a gas range or electric range. Unless you are completely renovating your kitchen, you will want to match the type of your new range to your existing kitchen design. After this decision has been made, you can begin to focus on the models you can realistically consider.

Set Your Budget

Knowing your budget should be the next step in range shopping. Certain features and finishes will affect the price. With a set budget in mind you can begin looking at features and conveniences.

Features You Can’t Live Withoutrange shopping

Consider your cooking habits, cookware, and personal preferences to determine which options will be most useful or important to you. How many burners do you need? How much time do you want to spend cleaning your appliance? Answering these questions will be helpful to your range shopping process.

Measure carefully if you are going to use your existing kitchen cabinets. Ranges come in a variety of sizes and styles. If your new range does not fit the existing gap between your cabinets or the new cooktop and wall oven require a different size cut-out in your counter top or wall, you will increase both the cost and aggravation of replacement.

If you have any questions or need help with your range shopping, call one of our appliance specialists. Home-Tech is happy to assist you. You can also stop in our Member Appliance Center or shop online at our convenient Appliance Store.

Employee Ownership

“The key difference is quite simple. Employees own the business,” says the CEO, Steve Marino. “I think it’s the perfect model for a service business in Southwest Florida. What we offer employees is a piece of their business. When someone is vested, when they own a stake in something, they are more likely to stay. What does this mean to our customers? Our employees really care that every experience you have, every service that is done is TOP NOTCH.”
