Bosch’s HGS8057UC is an 800 Series 30 inch gas range with five burners at 76,500 BTU and a 3.6 cubic foot oven. A freestanding range is one of the few appliances in a kitchen that is not fixed to anything, which is why every one of them comes with an anti-tip bracket. A range that rocks when the oven door is open with a turkey on it is a serious hazard, and checking that bracket is the first thing worth doing on any range that has been moved for cleaning.
