Stove Type 7: 2D Plan Top View

A cooking range often has a flat surface for the cooktop and a separate compartment for the oven. The cooktop can have various configurations of burners, such as four burners arranged in a rectangle or a combination of large and small burners to accommodate different types of cookware. The oven may have multiple shelves for cooking several dishes at once and light to allow you to check on your food without opening the door. Cooking ranges can be freestanding, meaning they are standalone appliances, or they can be built-in and integrated into cabinetry for a seamless look in the kitchen. Some models may include advanced features such as a self-cleaning function, convection cooking, and digital controls.
