Generally speaking, people are particular about the fuel or power source they choose for cooking in their homes. And if you’ve always used a gas range, you’re unlikely to want to give it up. While there’s no denying the benefits of induction cooking—superior heat, temperature control, efficiency, cleaner air—cooking with gas has a certain old-school appeal that’s hard to resist.
Gas stoves offer a more visceral cooking experience, and if gas is your fuel of choice, we’ve got you covered with some of the best gas ranges on the market today, some of which appear on our list of best overall ranges. Although larger options are available, 30 inches is the standard width for ranges. The ubiquity of 30-inch ranges means that anyone in the market to upgrade their cooking experience will have ample choice.
That’s where we come in: We’ll help guide you to the best gas range for your cooking needs. If you’re in the market for a new 30-inch gas range, our current favorite is the LG LRGL5825F
(available at Lowe's for $1,699.00)
. And we’ve checked out other top picks at every price point.

We were pleasantly surprised with the LRGL5825F’s competent air fryer mode.
Best Gas Range
LG LRGL5825F
The LG LRGL5825F is an ideal choice for any home-baking enthusiast in the market for an affordable, freestanding gas range. We were impressed with the oven's baking evenness and air fryer mode.
Like many products from LG, the range can be controlled and monitored remotely using your smartphone. In addition, the LRGL5825F features InstaView, which lets owners activate the interior light by knocking on the oven door. It’s a little gimmicky, to be honest, but its presence doesn’t detract from the range.
While the smart features are welcome, the real star of the show is the range's cooking performance. The capable, true-convection oven manages to bake and roast food evenly; plus, it features an unusually effective air fryer mode.
There’s a lot to like about the LRGL5825F, though it does falter in some areas. The preheat is interminably slow, and, for whatever reason, owners are required to purchase the air-fryer basket separately.
The Bertazzoni MAS305GASXV gas range offers power, convenience, and Italian-made aesthetics.
Best Upgrade Gas Range
Bertazzoni MAS305GASXV 30-Inch Freestanding Gas Range
The Bertazzoni MAS305GASXV is a freestanding, counter‑depth range with five sealed burners, which includes a dual‑ring power burner with a whopping range from 750 to 19,000 BTU—perfect for both delicate simmering and intense searing.
The oven boasts a roomy 4.7 cubic feet of space, equipped with European convection for even cooking across multiple rack positions. It supports multiple cooking modes—including bake, convection bake, and broil—with an extra‑powerful broiler ideal for grilling. A built‑in temperature gauge provides real‑time feedback during both preheating and baking, although there’s no digital readout on this model.
Safety and ease-of-use add value to this range. The MAS305GASXV incorporates thermocouple gas safety, ensuring that gas flow is cut off if the flame extinguishes unexpectedly. The soft‑motion door, complete with edge‑to‑edge tempered glass, offers an easy one‑hand opening.
Continuous cast‑iron grates ensure smooth movement of cookware, and the range comes in stainless steel, Bianco White, or Nero Black for elevated kitchen aesthetics.
These solid build details, paired with its Italian engineering and design make this range both a high‑performance and visually striking centerpiece for a modern kitchen.
This 36-inch gas range will make you feel like a pro.
Best 36-inch Gas Range
Bertazzoni PRO366BCFEPXT 36-Inch Dual-Fuel Range
This best-in-class Italian range is a favorite of ours. It’s got six high-efficiency burners with four different output levels, a 5.7-cubic-foot self-cleaning convection oven, and a single-piece aluminum cooktop for easy cleanup. It also features a dedicated mesh steel basket—for use with its air-frying mode—and smooth-glide features on the door and internal oven racks.
Though the Bertazzoni lacks modern smart features or a built-in timer, its incredible performance and precision are well worth the tradeoff. It comes with a two-year parts-and-labor warranty, should it need any repairs. And, if you like, you can modify it to run on LP gas (instead of natural gas) with an optional conversion kit.
This Haier QGSS740RNSS gas range excelled in every test we threw at it, from boiling water to baking cookies. It’s a good choice for serious home cooks, star bakers, and tech nerds looking to add to their smart appliance repertoire. We love its quick preheat, short boil times, and elevated stainless steel look, plus the cast-iron grates on the cooktop that promote even heat distribution.
This Haier range has all the bells and whistles: Steam Self-Clean, No-Preheat Air Fry, Scan-to-Cook, Frozen Pizza, Frozen Snacks, Simmer Burner. That said, many of its features are only accessible via the SmartHQ smartphone app, meaning you’ll need to have your device handy to use them.
The only other minor drawback we experienced with this range was the exposed rubber bumpers on the cooktop. They’re small, but a bit unsightly and could collect dirt and grime. Overall, we think this range would make a great addition to any kitchen.
This GE Profile freestanding gas range comes with a host of nice features and conveniences. If you’re looking for a stove with smart features, it comes with built-in Wi-Fi and SmartHQ app integration.
It’s got five burners, each with its own unique output, a simple No Preheat air-frying mode, and plenty of useful settings like timers, auto self-cleaning, delayed cooking, automatic shutoff, and more. It includes a reversible grill and griddle, dishwasher-safe removable knobs, and an impressive 5.6-cubic-foot oven capacity.
This Frigidaire Gallery Series gas range has a lot to offer: five burners, a built-in griddle, an easy-to-use steam-clean mode. It’s also got a dedicated air-fry setting and nice conveniences like a timer and delayed-bake setting.
According to Frigidaire, you don’t have to worry about preheating; just set your temperature and cook time and get ready for a hot, delicious meal. It’s available in black stainless steel or classic silver and comes with a one-year warranty.
This popular Whirlpool gas range is loaded with bells and whistles, from the two SpeedHeat Burners and set-and-forget Sabbath mode to its built-in broiler drawer and frozen-bake technology.
Its cast-iron grates span the full area of the cooktop, so it’s easy to keep all your favorite pots and pans right where you need them. It’s got a porcelain enamel surface and a smooth oven floor for quick, easy cleaning, and you can set it for things like a delayed start or lock the controls while your food’s cooking.
• Gas: Natural-gas ranges offer faster boiling times than traditional electric burners, and more manageable cooktop temperatures. But there’s a chance of uneven cooking due to the nature of a flame element.
• Electric: Traditional electric rangers boil water more slowly and have higher temperatures overall, which can potentially damage cookware, but they tend to cook things more evenly as well.
• Dual-fuel: Dual-fuel ranges are a hybrid option, combining a gas cooktop with an electric oven. This offers the convenience of instantaneous gas cooking on the stovetop as well as nice, even baking thanks to the electric oven.
• Induction:Induction ranges, a newer style of electric stovetop that uses electromagnetism instead of heated coils, boast super quick boiling times, along with easily controlled low and high heat. The potential downsides are pretty minor: They require induction-compatible cookware, you might have to adjust recipes, and they currently tend to be more expensive than their gas and electric counterparts.
Are Gas Cooktops Better Than Electric Ranges?
Both gas and electric ranges have pros and cons that may make them more or less suited to your needs.
Gas stoves may be slightly more expensive than their electric counterparts, depending on what features are involved. Keep in mind that this initial expense will be offset by a decrease in your electric bill—gas is much cheaper than electricity.
If you need to install gas hookups to make the switch, however, the utility bill savings might not entirely cover the cost. Depending on your home’s design and location, installing a gas hookup can range from expensive to impossible. We recommend getting a quote before committing to a gas cooktop.
How Do You Clean a Gas Cooktop?
While induction ranges get all the accolades for being easy to clean, that doesn’t mean gas cooktops are particularly difficult to clean. All of the grates are removable to be washed individually.
If you have any burned-on stains, you can scrub them down with a wire brush and a water-baking soda paste. While that's more labor intensive than a quick wipe-down, it's no more difficult than cleaning a traditional electric range with coiled heating elements.
Do You Need a Slide-In or Freestanding Range, and What’s the Difference?
Slide-in gas ranges sit flush with your countertops for a seamless, built-in look. Freestanding ranges can sit wherever you have power and sufficient space. While this might seem like an arbitrary distinction, the real difference is that freestanding ranges are finished to look great from any angle. Slide-in ranges are assumed to have their sides covered by cabinetry.
You’ll typically find the control panel on the front of a slide-in range. Meanwhile, freestanding ranges tend to have back-mounted controls. And, oftentimes, the burner controls are found on that same panel.
If your current kitchen setup has the stove within a countertop cutout or between cabinets, you could consider replacing it with either a slide-in or freestanding range, depending on what works with your dimensions. But if your range sits all by itself in the kitchen, or one of the sides is exposed, we’d recommend another freestanding model.
How We Evaluate Gas Ranges
We evaluate the best ranges a couple different ways. When possible, we perform repeatable, scientific tests here in our Cambridge lab—followed by a series of real-world cooking scenarios. We measure the maximum and minimum temperature of each burner, test the cooking and baking capabilities of the appliance’s various modes, and evaluate how evenly each oven bakes a sheet of cookies.
In order to keep our guides up-to-date with all the best gas ranges on the market, we also make a few additional recommendations based on other factors. We perform extensive research, look at user reviews, and examine product specifications and price points to find the best appliances to suit every budget.
