Ranges for Sale in Madison and Janesville, Wisconsin

A range pairs a cooktop and an oven in a single unit, making it the central workhorse of most kitchen appliances. The category spans gas, electric, and dual fuel models in widths from compact 20 and 24-inch units up to 36-inch and larger professional ranges, with freestanding, slide-in, and drop-in configurations to suit different cabinet layouts. Fuel type, oven capacity, burner power, and built-in features all shape how a range performs day to day.

Brothers Main carries ranges from the brands Wisconsin cooks rely on at our showrooms in Madison and Janesville. Browse the full cooking collection to compare wall ovens, cooktops, and ventilation that pair with your new range.

Shop Ranges by Type

Range type comes down to how the unit installs and how it fuels the cooktop. Here is how the main configurations differ.

Freestanding Ranges

Built with finished side panels and a rear backguard that houses the controls, these ranges can sit anywhere in a kitchen, including at the end of a cabinet run. A freestanding gas range brings open-flame burners and continuous grates, while freestanding electric ranges cover both coil and smoothtop surfaces, including the easy-to-clean freestanding smoothtop electric range. Offered in 20, 24, 30, and 36 inch widths, this is the most widely available and budget-friendly configuration, a practical fit for everything from apartments to large family kitchens.

Slide-In Ranges

Designed to nest between cabinets with the countertop overlapping the edges, these ranges create a seamless, custom-installed look. Controls sit on the front face rather than a rear backguard, which keeps the wall behind open for a backsplash. Whether you choose a slide-in gas range for open-flame cooking or a slide-in electric range with a smooth, easy-to-wipe top, this style is a popular upgrade for remodels where a built-in appearance matters.

Dual Fuel Ranges

Dual fuel ranges combine a gas cooktop with an electric convection oven, giving you the responsive open-flame control cooks prefer on top and the steady, even heat electric bakers want below. This pairing is favored by people who do a lot of baking and roasting but do not want to give up gas burners. Expect these to sit in the step-up and professional tiers of the lineup.

Professional Gas Ranges

Built for serious home cooking, professional style ranges pair sealed gas burners with heavy continuous grates and large-capacity ovens, often in wider 36 inch and larger sizes. Many add features like griddle plates, dual ovens, and commercial-grade construction. They anchor a kitchen both visually and functionally for households that cook often and at volume.

Drop-In and Specialty Ranges

Drop-in range models rest on a custom cabinet base instead of including a storage drawer, blending into surrounding cabinetry for a tailored look. Specialty gas and electric ranges cover the configurations outside the standard lineup, along with range accessories such as griddles, grates, and trim kits. These options help match a range to an unusual layout or a specific cooking habit.

Range Features Worth Comparing

Once you have narrowed down fuel and configuration, features separate one model from the next. These are the ones that change how a range cooks and how easy it is to live with.
Convection Oven: A rear fan circulates hot air for faster, more even baking and better multi-rack results.

• Induction: An electric cooktop technology that heats magnetic cookware directly for fast, precise, energy-efficient cooking on a cool-to-the-touch surface.
• Continuous Grate: Edge-to-edge cast iron grates let you slide heavy pots across burners without lifting them.
• Down Draft: A retractable vent built into the cooktop pulls smoke and steam down and out, useful where an overhead hood is not practical.
• Self Clean: A high-heat or steam cycle loosens baked-on residue so the oven interior wipes clean with minimal scrubbing.
• Warming Drawers: A dedicated low-heat drawer keeps finished dishes at the right serving temperature, so everything stays warm while the rest of the meal comes together.
• WiFi Connectivity: A smart range with WiFi connectivity lets you preheat the oven, adjust settings, and monitor cooking right from your phone.

Shop Ranges by Brand

Each range brand earns its following for different reasons, from value and reliability to design and professional performance. These are among the names Wisconsin shoppers ask for the most.

• KitchenAid: Known for strong baking performance and even convection, KitchenAid ranges suit home cooks who spend real time in the oven and want refined finishes to match the rest of the kitchen.
• Café: Built for kitchens where appliances are part of the design, Café ranges offer customizable hardware, bold finishes, and high-output burners for cooks who want performance and personality together.
• Samsung: A technology-forward choice with flexible cooktop layouts, smart connectivity, and standout finishes, well-suited to buyers cross-shopping on features and look.
