When it comes to giving your kitchen that super and powerful look that will make your friends green with envy, everyone knows that you can never go wrong with the Frigidaire brand. All its appliances are professional-grade which means that aside from the fact that they give super high performance, they also look absolutely great which gives your kitchen a totally spruced up look. Its customer care team is truly one to beat as this is one brand that believes in the supremacy of the customer. For about a century now, Frigidaire has remained in the business of keeping customers happy and it’s not about to back down anytime soon.
The Frigidaire 30-inch Slide-In Electric Range is a really expansive electric oven that caters to all your oven needs. Now you can do a lot at once! But there’s still much more to its offerings than space and we will proceed to give you a quick rundown:
First, it comes with extra-large elements and you know what that means—enough space to place your pots or pans of any size. So, you don’t have to get caged into using any particular pot or pan, or have to make different batches of food just cos the one pot which could have conveniently taken it all won’t fit into your oven. Those days are long gone.
The elements in this oven, apart from being extra large, are also expandable, so you can move them around to accommodate your pots of different heights. And then the oven racks come with handles, so when you’ve got to take something out of the stove, even while wearing an oven mitt, it’s no longer going to be a tug of war; you simply grab on, and pull out.
Do you hate cleaning? That’s okay cos this baby does not have a problem with caring for itself. It comes as a self-cleaning oven and even has the options of a quick clean, a power clean, or a delayed clean. Each of these options allows you to do a minor cleaning, a thorough one (with 25% more cleaning power than a quick clean), and a clean that’s timed according to your own schedule, respectively. Hurray!
And just so you never have to open the door just to check on your dishes, this oven comes with a large glass window, so you can conveniently check on your food with a peep—and not to mention a lot of convenience.
This oven also comes with various broil options, and is available in either black or white!
Why not get this oven now?! You know you want it!

It’s been over 65 years of inspiring customers, as well as competitor brands, for Danby. And just like you, it has learned to evolve with the times by constantly reinventing itself and its range of products to step up in features and functionality in order to meet your demands as you require them today.

If there’s one place to get the most versatile offerings at the most affordable prices, it’s definitely Danby.
Here’s our top pick if you’re absolutely pressed for cash and could care less if your oven can do somersaults or make a pizza all by itself: The Danby 20-inch Electric Range. It’s your basic electric range; no thrills, no frills. Although it might not come with all the extras like many other ovens, on the basic function for which it is made, this oven more than delivers.
It’s got a lift-up porcelain cooktop which comes with four burners. Already, by being a range, this guy saves you space since you have an oven and a range in one unit. Now, with four burners on your cooktop, a lot more cooking can be going on simultaneously and you can save yourself some time. Cooking can be stressful, but cooking in batches can be hellish. This range saves you that stress.
The safety knobs on this oven are quite friendly and easy to use. You can easily adjust the temperature of the oven to any degree you want with a simple twist of any of the knobs.

The oven is one kitchen appliance that we definitely cannot overlook when counting central appliances in the kitchen. In fact, it is quite impossible to mention the cooktop without immediately mentioning the oven. They are like twins that shared the same womb.
Because of the vital roles ovens play in the kitchen, it becomes doubly important to ensure that your oven of choice is durable, high-performance, and agreeable with your pocket. Thankfully, there are many ovens
from top brands, like Verona, today and each comes with unique features and selling points.
But to choose the absolute best oven for you, there are several factors you will need to take into consideration. The chief of these factors would be your space. You’d have to work around your space so that the oven doesn’t end up looking like a misfit in your kitchen.
Okay, so let’s do a little exercise:
Close your eyes and picture your kitchen. Then place your oven just like you like it in the space of your choice. Have you done that? Now, move from your oven
to your stove. Alright, now move from your oven
to your dishwasher. Are you already losing balance in your head, trying to move from your oven to other appliances? Then that’s exactly where you do not want to place your oven.
Your oven must be within range of all the other vital appliances you’d normally rotate around while cooking, or else you could end up feeling overwhelmed while trying to fix even the most basic of meals.
Ovens are definitely a godsend and in truth, we have them to “blame” for most of the most delicious foods on the planet today (e.g. pizza). However, this story can quickly turn sour if painstaking measures are not employed to pick the best electric oven that there is, not only for the function, but for your needs and your space.
Our guide has lots of tips to help your decision for the best electric oven for you. So just sit back and relax; we’ve done all the work. Simply read through and be on your way to snagging the electric oven of your dreams.
Price
Typically, a good electric oven should start going for, at least, $500 and could extend to as high as $3,000 plus. It all depends on what you want. For instance, you should probably be able to guess that if you’re going for an oven that self-cleans and comes as a double oven or a wood oven, then you’d definitely not be spending the same amount as someone who would prefer a conventional, single, manual-cleaning oven.
Now, as for cheap electric ovens, they do exist, but if you consider how quickly they disintegrate then you’d steer clear of them. You wouldn’t want to put your money into something that will hardly last at least a reasonable length of time. Put out a little more in order to get an electric oven that’s really worth it.
Features
So before you pick an electric oven, here are a few factors you must consider:
- Size
- Type
- Single or double?
- Cleaning
- Wall oven or range?
- Location
Let’s get into the details already!
Construction and Design
The construction and design of your electric oven are vital in determining how it will serve you. To get a good idea of what to expect, we suggest you look at its size, whether it’s a wall oven or range, what type it is otherwise, and its finish—you do want a classy-looking kitchen, no? Let’s take a look at these in more detail.
Size
A typical oven falls within the range of 27 inches and 30 inches in width, and the size you go for should be determined by the space in your kitchen as common sense will demand. Aside from the space in your kitchen, you’ll also want to check out the size of the interior to be sure that it will comfortably take your many-sized pots and pans.
Wall Oven or Range?
Next, there are ovens that exist as just that: ovens. And there are some that come with a cooktop combined, which we refer to as ranges. Wall ovens demand less space when compared to ranges, but then, they are more convenient. You’ll hardly ever have to bend over so much to put food in or take it out of the oven. If you don’t have the space to house an oven and a cooktop separately, then your best bet might be to go for a range.
Type
Electric ovens come in different types, actually 6 to be precise, and these are useful for different cooking. We have the wood, the convection, the steam, the combination, the microwave, and the conventional ovens. The wood ovens, which are becoming increasingly popular, especially because they are mostly used to make pizzas, are about the most high-end type of oven you could possibly find.
Finish
Lastly, finish.
Electric ovens come in different colors for different-themed kitchens. You’ll find most in black, but you can also find many in white, ivory, or even metallic finishes. Whatever you choose though, try to ensure that your choice of finish matches the color of your countertop, floor, cabinets, and other essentials in the kitchen to give your kitchen a more attractive appearance.
Performance and Ease of Use
Look at whether your electric oven is a single or double, determine where you plan on putting it, and then check out what cleaning properties it has (does it self-clean?). These will help you determine how well the electric oven will really serve you. Below are more details on each topic.
Single or Double?
Thanks to technology, we now have the option of going for double ovens or single ones; it all depends on your cooking needs and, of course, the size of your pocket. What is a double oven? As the name implies, a double oven consists of two separate ovens operating with their individual heat controls. This way you can cook two different dishes at the same time, at different heat levels. Especially if you cook for a large number, this type of oven is an answer to prayer. However, the double oven option only exists for wall ovens, and not electric ranges.
Location
Now, we go to where to keep our oven…
Be practical when choosing a spot for your oven and don’t just think of aesthetics. Aesthetics are good, but if not tempered with a bit of good ol’ commonsense, you could run into a challenge. A good example would be to install an oven without thinking of a space where you will place hot food from the oven quickly, when you take it out.
Another thing to consider is how near the oven is to other appliances in the kitchen. This will keep you from having to travel from the oven to the next appliance just to get something really brief done. If you decide to go for a double oven, then consider placing them side-by-side instead of vertically. It saves space and it’s totally hot in kitchen designs right now.
Cleaning
We doubt that there’s anyone who’d say that his/her hobby is cleaning up or doing chores, so most opt for ovens that self-clean. It’s more expensive though, but at least it conserves energy more effectively, which later pays itself out by reducing the cost on the electricity bill.
