I visited this summer with a homeowner on the upcoming AIA Homes By Architects Tour who loved to cook. Wolf Range makes the go-to cook’s range, but she hated the way it looked.

She loved the look of the GE Cafe dual fuel range, which also happens to be quite a bit more affordable, at $2799. It’s worth taking a look at, due to its professional styling and features:

• Dual fuel means  combines the precise temperature control of gas on the stove top and even heating of electric in the oven
• Convection system promises even air and heat circulation, plus it converts temperatures for you automatically.
• Super big (5 cubic foot) oven cavity with meat probe, ideal for large roasts and — since it has convection — multiple racks of dishes
• PowerBoil 18,000 BTU gas burner means water boils really quick, plus high heat for more professional-style cooking
