Why do you want a 48" range?

Don't forget the 54" hood/ventilation which will add even more cost.

Have you considered a 36" range + extra wall oven OR 36" cooktop + 2 wall ovens?

I had a 48" Wolf Dual Fuel range in my previous house. I found the small oven to be too small and never used it. We also never used the Griddle.

For the new house I went with a 36" Wolf Induction range plus a Miele CSO XXL. Mostly use the Miele CSO, which heats up really quickly. Use the big Wolf oven only for holidays/parties. Really like Induction. I find I have more control and it is much easier to clean and keep clean.

Your range and frig oversize choices with the same wording are likely not based on logic. A 30 or 36" Bosch industrial style induction range will be affordable and functional. Link.

@dan1888 and @chispa I sometimes want to cook more than 1 thing, so i would love the option of the double ovens, and 6 burners, however would not mind the double wall oven vs the small side oven. What brands do you recommend for that? Definitely don't need a griddle as I have one. And the fridge I just am tired of things forgotten in the back. My fridge inside is 26cuft and another similar size in our garage and both get packed. Was hoping to eliminate one in our remodel but open to suggestions.

We have a 48 inch Blue Star. We use the smaller oven a lot. It is not too small. It fits a regular size sheet pan. We never feel the need for 2 wall ovens and we cook a lot.

Plus the makeup air system for a 48" range adds a couple thou. With an induction range and for extra oven somewhere you can choose an XXL Miele CombiSteamOven(CSO)

A 36” cooktop will have 5-6 burners. The only reason i see for 48” is if you use the griddle a lot. my 36” miele induction cooktop has 5 hobs and i’ve only wanted the 6th a couple of times in 6 years… i do use 4-5 somewhat regularly. lots of great 36” options and good wall oven options.

Go check out images of Julia Child's kitchen online. You can do everything you want to do on an inexpensive, non fancy 30 inch range. Having an amazing guitar will not help you be Jeff Beck. But a ton of not very skilled players get sold on paying a ton for instrument quality level that will not help their playing at all. it's the same thing with kitchen equipmenht.

Take a look at the GE Twin Flex oven. You could get that and a 36 inch cooktop and have plenty of cooking flexibility/capacity for less than the cost of a 48 inch range. Won't eat into your cabinet space either. I've had a Twin Flex for two years now and am surprised by how useful and versatile it is. I've yet to run into capacity issues, though I often cook for 10 to 12 people. I'm especially pleased with the Air Fry feature. It works really well for fish or pork tenderloin -- the exterior gets nicely browned but the interior remains tender and juicy. I know you didn't want a GE, but this is a nice oven. (I had space for a built-in microwave above mine, though just opted for a cubby to put in a plug-in countertop mw. Glad to get my counter space back.)

Were going with capital brand. my old house we had an american range. i see a lot of comments on 36" ranges. i think thats a mistake. 36" ovens are huge and if you want to bake something thats not a 30lb turkey, its a waste of gas and time to heat up. i prefer a small oven and a regular size oven and 48" ranges offer that.

unless you go with a 36" rangetop and two double wall ovens but again they usuay are standard size not small for small dishes.

anyhoo, american range was great. no issues. going with capital this time as i want open burners with each individual grates.

@lharpie how do you like your Melie?

I won't really have the space for a wall oven and want 6 burners for sure. I would definitely use a griddle grill option as I already use my griddle pan and grill pan often.

Just a though for future buyers,, when hurricane sandy hit us in NJ and everyone was out of power for weeks we were still able to cook using a gas range- just light a match and you're good to go- not so much with electric cooktops. food for thought.

@cathie2029, same situation for us on Long Island. Thanks to our gas range, during Sandy, we cooked a hot breakfast every morning for 30 neighbors…all of whom had electric ranges. Which is why, when we moved some years later, induction was a big no for us.

Good old American ingenuity. A Coleman camp stove is fine for breakfast, etc. Refrigeration is more of a challenge.

In a hurricane prone area, underground 500 gallon propane tank will run the generator that will run the induction stove and refrigerator.

Used to live in an earthquake prone zone and there is a high risk of damage to natural gas lines and fires starting due to gas leaks. An acquaintance who lived through the Kobe earthquake said that most of the damage was from ruptured gas lines that caused fires.

No one power source is perfect!

My coleman stove hooked up to a propane tank is pretty perfect for either gas or electric issue… i’m not deciding what i cook on every day based on fear of being without electricity for a few days of my life that’s for sure… i’m much more worried about my house collapsing in an earthquake!

My Miele induction cooktop is fabulous! i wouldn’t trade it for anything. but doesn’t sound like what you are looking for…
