COSMO F965 36 in Dual Fuel Range with Convection Oven - Family Ready

Our review of the COSMO F965 dual fuel range finds it best suited for families or home cooks who want gas precision on the cooktop and consistent electric convection baking in one freestanding unit. The single biggest reason to buy is the combination of a five-burner sealed gas cooktop, including a highoutput 18,400 BTU burner, and a true European convection oven that cooks more evenly than a standard oven, making weeknight meals and weekend roasts simpler to manage. Installation requires a 220/240V supply, but once in place the range balances power and versatility without unnecessary complexity.

Key Features

• 5 sealed burners: A mix of burner outputs, from a precise 5,000 BTU simmer to an 18,400 BTU triple ring, lets cooks move from slow sauces to rapid boiling with confidence.
• Turbo true European convection: Convection cooking circulates heat for more even results and shorter cook times compared with a conventional oven.
• 3.8 cu. ft. oven capacity: The single oven is roomy enough for family meals and fits larger dishes while using eight cooking functions including Pizza and Defrost.
• Heavy-duty construction: 430-grade stainless steel and cast iron grates retain heat and resist corrosion for a durable everyday appliance.
• Smart safety touches: Overheating protection and a cool-to-touch oven door handle provide added peace of mind during busy cooking sessions.
• Modern European design: A stainless steel finish with smudge-resistant surface blends into contemporary kitchens and wipes clean easily.

Who It's For

The COSMO F965 is ideal for families and serious home cooks who want the responsiveness of a gas cooktop plus the even results of an electric convection oven, all in a 36 in freestanding range. It fits households that routinely prepare multiple dishes and value a range of burner sizes, from low simmering to searing heat.

It is not the best choice for homes without a 220/240V circuit or for those who need a double oven or larger commercial capacity; also buyers who require built-in cabinetry installation should consider ranges designed for built-in mounting instead.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• High-output 18,400 BTU burner and varied burner sizes offer real cooktop flexibility for searing and delicate simmering.
• True European convection delivers more even baking and can reduce cook times compared with conventional ovens.
• Durable 430-grade stainless steel and cast iron grates make for long-term reliability and easier cleaning.

Cons

• Requires a 220/240V electrical connection, so installation may need an electrician for many homes.
• 3.8 cu. ft. oven is roomy for many dishes but smaller than some competing 36 in ranges with dual ovens or larger interiors.
