If you’re of a mind that large, established companies never have nothing new under the sun, Whirlpool might make you reassess that opinion. In fact, the company’s Gold Freestanding Double Oven is not only new, it’s exceptionally green, as its diminutive upper half uses 50% less energy than other ovens while preheating in half the time.

Whirlpool’s Double Oven Increases Options in the Kitchen

Like previous Whirlpool products we’ve covered on 3rings (see the Induction Cooktop and Eco-System Kitchen), the Freestanding Double Oven evinces the expanding industry-wide conviction that going green is not only ethically and morally sound, it also makes good business sense.

the key, perhaps, to negotiating the sometimes treacherous line between sustainability and profitability is creating green products that enhance functionality and look good doing it too. In this regard, the Freestanding Double Oven hits all the right notes: the oven boasts a slick contemporary look with finish options in white, stainless steel, and black.

The look of Whirlpool’s Gold Freestanding Double Oven is sure to enhance its appeal, as it conforms easily to existing decor, yet the multiple functional features are the appliance’s ultimate selling points. This list is long, but highlights include its easy cleanability (dishwasher safe grates and Whirlpool’s patented Intuitive Precise Clean System); precision preparation with the AccuBake system and 6th Sense technology; and a cooking capacity that rivals commercial set-ups: “6.0 cu. ft. combined capacity gives this range the largest capacity available in the industry. The fifth burner’s oval shape easily accommodates oblong cookware.”
