Being confined to small cooking quarters doesn’t mean being limited to subpar appliances.
The Blue Star 24-Inch RNB Series Range is professional style downsized.
Reduced-Size Ranges
The Bertazzoni Professional Series 24-Inch Freestanding Gas Range (PROF244GASXE) has four sealed aluminum burners, a 2.4-cubic food convection oven, and a storage drawer; $2,599 at AJ Madison.
A tiny kitchen can house a taste of the British countryside (for a price). With four burners, two ovens, and cast iron construction, the range is available in 13 colors, starting at $12,959 at AJ Madison.
Super small but well detailed, the Summit Professional Series 20-Inch Slide-In Gas Range has four burners, a 2.5-foot capacity oven, and a broiler drawer; $1,020 from Build.
For many reasons, however, an electric range is a wiser choice than gas (as we detail in Remodeling 101: Farewell to the Gas Range), and Summit offers its electric professional-style ranges in 20-inch and 24-inch options.
Compact Cooktops
The Fagor Pro Portable Induction Cooktop offers energy-efficient, high-power cooking in a small package. The 12-by-14 inch induction burner packs 1,800 watts of power and seven power level settings, ranging from warm to boil.
The demure Miele Double CombiSet Gas Cooktop measures just 12 inches wide. Available for natural gas or liquid propane; $999 at AJ Madison.
A more affordable option is the Fagor Modular Gas Cooktop with 2 Sealed Burners, measuring 12 by 20 inches; $449 at Home Thangs.
No hard wiring required. The electric plug-in BroilKing Professional Double Cast Iron Space Saver Range is fully portable and features two cast-iron burners with a stainless steel body.
