Choosing a commercial gas range means balancing more than burner count. You have to think about floor space, fuel type, oven capacity, and how much you want to spend before the first service. The four ranges here show how wide that decision can be: one is a compact countertop cooking plate, one is a pre-owned 36-inch restaurant range, one is a 24-inch LP range with a space-saver oven, and one is a 60-inch liquid-propane unit with an extra griddle and twin ovens.
Quick take
If you only need a basic heat source, the countertop unit is the lowest-priced listing. If you need an oven but have limited floor space, the mid-priced range fits that middle ground. The pre-owned Imperial covers the traditional floor-range side of the set, while the liquid-propane range at the top of the price spread offers the most generous cooking package.

Decision matrix

- Need a lower-priced floor range and accept used equipment: the pre-owned Imperial range is the practical choice.
- Need a compact countertop cooker: the countertop gas range is designed for placement on existing counters.
- Need an oven in a smaller footprint: the range with the space-saver oven fills that spot in the lineup.
Product notes
60-inch Liquid Propane 6-Burner Range
The 60-inch liquid-propane range is the only listing here with a griddle/broiler and two standard ovens. Its open top burners are rated at 30,000 BTU each, and the stainless front and aluminum sides are built for commercial use. At the top of the listed price range, this is a serious financial commitment, and it requires a liquid propane connection. If your kitchen is set up for LP gas and you need high-volume stovetop cooking plus substantial oven space, this is the unit to evaluate against your floor plan.
Pre-Owned Imperial 36-inch Restaurant Range
For a startup kitchen or a secondary cooking line, the pre-owned Imperial 36-inch range offers open gas burners and a standard oven. It is a used unit with a stainless steel front and sides. The lower listed price makes it an interesting choice if you are comfortable with pre-owned equipment and want more capacity than a countertop cooker can provide. Keep in mind that this is a 36-inch floor range, so it still needs dedicated floor space.
Countertop Propane Gas Range
The countertop gas range is designed for counter use and comes in at the bottom of this price spread. Depending on the model, it can be configured with 1, 2, 4, or 6 burners, and the stainless panel is scratch-resistant and easy to wipe down. The factory default is natural gas, with propane conversion accessories included. If you need a heat source that sits on a counter rather than occupying floor space, this listing keeps the upfront cost minimal.
24-inch LP Four-Burner Range
This 24-inch LP range pairs four burners with a space-saver oven, making it a practical middle-ground choice for a small kitchen. Cast iron top grates, a drip tray, and an oven temperature range are part of the package, and the title also lists casters. Its listed price sits between the bottom and top of this comparison. The title specifically identifies LP Gas, so this is a fuel-specific purchase for kitchens already set up for propane.
Final recommendation by use case
For a high-volume kitchen that needs a large cooking surface and considerable oven capacity, the liquid-propane range at the top of the price spread is the one to evaluate against your floor plan and fuel supply. For a startup that accepts used equipment, the pre-owned Imperial range is the practical pick at the lower end of the price range. For small prep areas, the countertop gas range is the simple, low-cost answer. For a compact floor range with an oven, the mid-priced LP range covers the middle ground.
