My Grandmother’s oven, circa 1966. Many holiday meals were cooked with love here, right up until the day she passed. Aside from one shattered glass door that was replaced, everything still works!TheSessionMan t1_jdyrx26 wrote

Cause you essentially need to buy three things (two ovens and a range) instead of one, a range oven combo

But that was always the case?

Pretty much, yeah. You'll only really see the dual oven plus range in houses that belonged to more upper class folk. You still see them in rich people's modern houses today at a much higher frequency than in working class homes

Yes, my parents’ house has two ovens stacked vertically and recessed into the wall, and a separate range. It’s a larger mid-century house. There’s also a brick oven in the backyard. The previous owners were a Greek family that did a lot of cooking and would roast goats in the backyard.

Electrolux still sells a stove with two oven zones combo. The drawback is that you have two smaller oven zones instead of one large. I like it you can cook two different things at different temperatures.
