You\u2019ll often hear chefs and avid cooks rave about the benefits of gas stoves over electric models. And it\u2019s true that gas stoves offer more precise temperature control. However, there are pros and cons to both types, and the decision really comes down to personal preference. <\/p>\n
Gas stoves are powered with natural gas or, less frequently, liquid propane. Older models relied on a continuous pilot light as an ignition source, but newer models often have energy-saving electric or spark ignitions. <\/p>\n
Freestanding gas ranges, which include both a cooktop and an oven, cost anywhere from about $400 for a basic model to several thousand dollars for a top-of-the-line commercial model. Basic black or white ranges usually cost $500 to $800, while stainless steel models with advanced features such as a self-cleaning option often cost $800 to $1,200. <\/p>\n
Gas cooktops range in price from about $300 to $900, depending on features, quality and the brand name. <\/p>\n

Electric stoves are actually more common than gas stoves in American households. Nearly 60 percent of Americans homes have an electric stove, according to the Consumer Energy Center. <\/p>\n
Electric stoves are less expensive upfront than gas stoves, but they tend to heat unevenly. However, electric stoves are available in a wider range of products and prices. There are two basic types: smooth top stoves with a built-in heating element and coil top models with an exposed, coil-shaped heating element. <\/p>\n
Freestanding electric ranges cost anywhere from less than $300 for a basic model to several thousand dollars for top-of-the-line models. Basic black or white models sell for about $300 to $600, while stainless steel models with advanced features tend to cost $600 to $1,000 or more. <\/p>\n
Electric cooktops are priced from about $200 to $800. <\/p>\n
