Product Description
The Buffalo six-burner gas oven range is a freestanding cooking suite designed for continuous, high-volume service in professional kitchens. It runs on natural gas as standard and can be converted to propane by a qualified engineer using the included conversion kit. The hob carries six independent burners across a robust cast iron support structure, and the oven beneath accepts gastronorm cookware up to five 2/1 GN double positions — practical for batch cooking, braising, and oven work running simultaneously.
In a busy kitchen environment, the ability to run multiple hob stations without losing heat output matters. The cast iron pan supports handle the weight and size of full commercial stockpots and pans without flexing, and the oven burner delivers consistent temperatures across the cavity rather than uneven heat that forces operators to rotate trays mid-service. Recovery after loading the oven is reasonably prompt, which matters during extended services where the oven is opened repeatedly. The lockable castors allow the unit to be repositioned for cleaning or minor layout changes without disconnecting services, though any repositioning that involves the gas connection must be handled by a competent person.
From an operational standpoint, this range offers several practical advantages:
- Push-button piezo ignition on the hob — no separate igniter or taper needed
- Removable pan supports simplify cleaning and reduce grease build-up around burner heads
- Stainless steel construction throughout stands up to daily cleaning and the humidity of a working kitchen
- Lockable castors allow controlled repositioning without a full installation intervention
- GN-compatible oven cavity integrates with standard gastronorm trays already in use
Installation must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer — this is a legal requirement and not optional. The unit is not suitable for use in mobile catering vehicles, trailers, or food trucks; it is designed for fixed installation in permanent kitchen structures with appropriate gas supply and ventilation. At 107kg, two people and suitable handling equipment are required for positioning. Allow adequate clearance to the rear and sides in line with the manufacturer's installation guidance and any applicable building regulations. Installation is not included as standard, but the team can advise on options if required.
This range is well suited to mid-sized operations — pub kitchens, independent restaurants, hotel food and beverage operations, and contract catering sites with consistent demand across a full service. It sits in a practical middle ground: more capable than a light-duty four-burner unit, but not a replacement for a heavy-duty French top or a range designed for the highest-throughput brigade kitchens. For sites running continuous double services or very high covers, a heavier-duty alternative may be worth considering.
If you are weighing this against other options for your kitchen, or want to talk through installation requirements and gas supply suitability, the team is happy to help you work through it before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes — installation and commissioning by a Gas Safe registered engineer is a legal requirement, not a recommendation. This applies whether the unit is being connected to natural gas or converted to propane. If you need help arranging installation, the team can advise on what is available.
- No. This unit is designed for fixed installation in a permanent kitchen with a mains gas supply and appropriate ventilation. It is not approved for use in mobile catering vehicles, trailers, or any mobile structure, and should not be installed in those environments regardless of gas supply availability.
- The six-burner hob and separate oven burner operate independently, so hob and oven demand do not compete with each other during peak periods. The oven cavity is sized for batch cooking with standard gastronorm trays, and the cast iron supports cope well with the weight and scale of commercial cookware used across a full service. For very high-volume sites running continuous covers across two sittings, it is worth discussing whether a higher-capacity model would be a better fit.
