36' range plus wall oven vs. 48' range with dual ovens?
Comments (4)We had the 36 foot (HAH) AG Wolf in our last house. We loved the unit and space up top but did often run out of burner space. The 36 inch oven was nice and held a lot which was great as long as we were cooking things at the same temp which we rarely ever did. Next, that oven took forever to preheat... 40-45 minutes to 400. Lastly, we think b/c of its huge capacity, it cooked really hot. I think the burners had to run a lot to keep it at temp which over cooked bottoms of breads etc. Great for roasts and some other things but not for breads, cookies, pastries etc. In the end though, we were VERY pleased with the Wolf. We adapted to the hot temps by using additional pans for heat shields and adjusting the temps. In our current house, we went with a 60 inch AG Blue Star range. It has 2 30 inch ovens, 8 burners and a grill. We also put in a Wolf 30 inch wall oven. The preheat on all 3 ovens to 400 is about 15-20 minutes. The first cookies and corn bread we did in the gas ovens. They were better than in the 36" Wolf but still cooked pretty hard. Next time I did corn bread, I thought, Oh yeah, I've got the wall oven and used it... a world of difference. Since then we have done biscuits and other items and they come out perfectly. We still find the gas is great for roasts, casseroles, reheating etc. We may have a bit of over kill, but due to advice from this forum, we specifically diversified to both gas and electric and have been very pleased. So, my recommendation? The 48 inch AG range AND an electric wall oven. Oh yeah, the grill on the BS is killer. I got talked into it as a last minute decision and thought I would use it occasionally. We have used it a fair amount so fay and it does a killer job on veggies and chicken. We have elected to limit the grill to those items only. Beef and fish are too messy and when we grill those, its always outside (so far). I have found a griddle plate that fits nicely over the grill to convert it to a griddle when needed....See MoreOwners of NXR 48" ranges--please tell me about your ovens
Comments (0)I have a few questions: -Can you fit 9 x 13 pans in the smaller oven? 12 hole muffin tins? -If they do fit in the smaller oven, are you happy with the way they bake? I've read extensive reviews on here, and one person mentions having to shuffle their sheets of cookies and biscuits around in the larger oven in order to get them to brown evenly. Have you found this to be the case? -How long does it take each oven to get up to temperature? Thanks for any help you can offer! : )...See Moredouble oven versus two side by side ovens
Comments (6)Keep in mind that you may not be able to install them side-by-side. For the GE Profile 27" single convection oven, the "Quick Specs" says: Note: These ovens are not approved for stackable or side-by-side installations. These ovens can be installed side-by-side with no less than 30" distance between center-to-center of each oven. However, you'll only need 3" extra b/w them to make 30". If you install them in 30" cabinets or put a cabinet b/w them, then you'll be fine. One caution...if you or your spouse is tall and you're planning to install them below the counter, you should know that it will mean a lot of bending to get into the oven...more than in the oven of a range. Under counter ovens are usually lower than the ovens in a range. I suggest you visit an appliance store or home center that has them installed below the counter to see if they are too low for you.

Comments (4)I am putting the bottom of my oven at counter height. That seems to be what gets shown in the literature. I am keeping that height from a standing perspective and one of the reasons I went with this config is to not have anything that low to the floor because of the dogs. I am not sure what ADA would say on the best height - but I would think that trying to not have anything too low or too high is the max age in place flexibility. I worry that moving something too low kinda defeats the purpose of the side swing door....See Morecatinthehat
