4 Burner Gas Stove

A 4 burner gas stove is a popular choice for both households and professional kitchens, offering a balance of cooking space and versatility. Typical features include four separate burners—often with different heat outputs—allowing for simultaneous cooking of multiple dishes. Most 4 burner gas ranges are available as either freestanding or slide-in models, depending on your kitchen layout preference^[7].

Heat output on a 4 burner gas stove generally ranges from around 5,000 BTUs for simmer burners to as high as 21,000 or even 22,000 BTUs for high-heat tasks like boiling water or searing meats^[1][2]. Models like the GE Profile Smart Slide-In Gas Range, for example, offer this range of burner strengths and receive high marks for even heat distribution and rapid boiling capability^[1].

Cookware compatibility is a significant advantage with gas stoves. Stainless steel, carbon steel, and cast iron pieces are particularly well-suited to the open flame, while nonstick and ceramic cookware should be used at lower temperatures to avoid damage^[1].

Oven capacity varies by model. Most standard 4 burner gas stoves include an oven, typically ranging from 4.8 to over 5.6 cubic feet, which is sufficient for most baking, roasting, and broiling needs^[3][5]. Some models include convection ovens for more even baking and features like warming drawers for added convenience^[2].

Cleaning and maintenance are straightforward with regular upkeep. Experts recommend cleaning the cooktop after significant spills and using specialized cleaners to maintain both the burners and stainless steel components^[1].

Customer reviews frequently note the practicality of continuous grates, which make it easy to move pots around, and the reliability of ignition systems on newer models^[3]. When selecting a stove, also consider your preference for additional features, such as smart connectivity or double ovens, although many users prefer simpler, non-smart models for ease of use and reliability^[6].
