Would cooking 2 dishes at 2 different temps at the SAME time cut #holidayprep time? These @BestBuy Stoves can help!

As I don't own a house or a fireplace for that matter, I won't be roasting any chestnuts on an open fire this holiday season. However, as an apartment dweller in the North East United States, I can be pretty much assured that Jack Frost will be nipping at my nose!

I don't have a ton of time during the week so anything that cuts down the time I spend in the kitchen is pretty much a life saver for me. I've got my eye on some Kitchen Appliances from Best Buy that offer the latest technology and innovations to help me cut down the prep time.

Because I am a renter I'm forced to stay with Gas, but wanted to present you with more than just one option.

Frigidaire - Gallery 30" Self-Cleaning Freestanding Electric Convection Induction Range - Model: FGIF3061NF:

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Induction Cooking

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Boil water in UNDER two minutes! (I love to cook Italian and Pasta dishes, this would save me so much time!)

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Smudge Proof Stainless Steel

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Easy to wipe cooktop that does not scorch food

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - One of the racks automatically pulls out when you open the oven door (no more 'oven steam facials')

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ -  5 cooktop elements - between 100W and 3800W of power

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Keep-warm element

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Simmer element

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - True Convection Technology

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Storage Drawer

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Self-cleaning oven

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Sabbath Mode

Notable: So far this appliance has all five star ratings from consumers on Best Buy's Website! (For those of you skeptical about blog reviews, these reviews are from consumers. I personally read reviews across a variety of sites before I purchase anything, especially anything tech or appliance so I'm sure you do too!) a 3-or-4-prong power cord is required and does not come with the unit but can be purchased from Best Buy and the installers are also required to install an anti-tip bracket (they will do so at no additional charge) but if you refuse the installation of the anti-tip bracket it will result in a drop off only delivery only and no connections will be completed.

Whirlpool - 30" Self-Cleaning Freestanding Double Oven Gas Range - Stainless Steel - Model: WGG555S0BS:

Press on the image above to purchase this Whirlpool Self-Cleaning Double Oven Gas Range directly at Best Buy!
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - 6.0 cu. ft total oven capacity (2.1 cu. ft upper and 3.9 cu. ft. lower oven capacity)

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Electronic Clock and Timer

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Full-width cast-iron gates - since they cover the entire cooking surface, you can place pots and pans anywhere on the cooktop

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - 4 Burners - Power Burner for Quick Boiling, Searing or Frying (15,000 BTUs), two 9,200 BTU burners and a 5,000 BTU AccuSimmer burner that gives a more gentle heat for melting chocolate or simmering sauces.

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - AccuBake System - Built in sensor monitors oven temperatures and controls the cooking elements for consistent results

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Keep-warm setting uses low heat to keep food from getting cold.

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - For my Jewish Friends - Sabbath Mode to comply with kosher cooking practices

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - PreciseClean self-cleaning technology - cleans only as long as it needs to to save energy

Notable: Gas Connector is sold separately for this model and is NOT included.

My Take:

Since our rental unit is not wired for an electric stove, I am totally leaning toward the Whirlpool model as I'm restricted to sticking with a Gas model for now. But I love just how feature rich the Gas model is so I won't feel like I am sacrificing or giving up features I would like just because I am currently restricted to Gas.

Which of the two would you select for your kitchen butterflies, and tell us why?

  2. Yes!!! In fact... I have one, electric though, and I love it! I wish I had gas, it is the only thing I don't love about my new kitchen, but unfortunately, the entire neighborhood lacks gas lines. I'd recommend it for anyone- even doing everyday dinner is so much simpler.

  10. I'd have pies in the one oven while the other made dinner (I'm thinking of Thanksgiving). That's some really great features for a stove, but it's that double oven that sells me.
