When should I replace my stove?

• <div><p>Sometimes, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/repair-or-replace-cooktop.htm">replacing your stove</a> may be the best course of action. For example, your stove may be reaching the end of its life span. Other times, the repair may cost too much, or the stove may simply be too broken. If your stove has been having small issues frequently, it might also be a good idea to take the opportunity and upgrade it.</p><p>Ask a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/appliance-repair-companies/">professional appliance repair</a> pro to inspect your stove. They can tell you what went wrong and whether it makes more sense to replace it with a new one. We do not recommend installing a new stove yourself. A licensed and insured contractor will make sure the job is done right. They may also help you get a better deal on the new stove.</p></div>

Are there ways to reduce the cost of a new appliance?

• <div><p>One way to reduce the cost of a new appliance is to look for sales and buy on certain holidays, like Memorial Day weekend and Black Friday. If you don’t mind a blemish or two on the appliance, look for scratch-and-dent units, which are often available at a significant bargain. </p></div>

Do you need a range hood over an electric stove?

• <div><p>Yes, you should install a range hood over an electric stove, even if they’re generally better for air quality than their gas counterparts. It’s a common misconception that range hoods are only needed for gas stoves, but electric stoves still create smoke and other fumes, all of which you’ll want to vent out of your kitchen.</p></div>
