Understanding the Wolf Brand and Product Lineup

Custom Wolf Cooktop

Wolf has built its reputation on delivering professional-grade cooking appliances to home kitchens. With decades of innovation and a focus on precision, durability, and design, Wolf appliances are trusted by serious home cooks and culinary pros alike.

When comparing Wolf products, it's helpful to understand the difference between their ranges and cooktops:

  • Wolf ranges are full-size appliances that combine a cooktop and an oven in one integrated unit. They’re ideal if you're looking to upgrade both cooking surfaces and baking capacity in one step.
  • Wolf cooktops, on the other hand, are designed to be built into countertops. These give you flexibility in kitchen layout and allow you to pair them with a wall oven or other built-in units.

Wolf offers a variety of fuel options, each with its own benefits:

  • Gas: Loved for its quick heat response and flame control.
  • Dual-fuel: Combines a gas cooktop with an electric oven for the best of both worlds.
  • Induction: Offers modern efficiency with fast, precise cooking and easy cleanup.

Whether you're looking to buy a Wolf range for its all-in-one convenience or install a sleek cooktop setup with wall ovens, Wolf ovens and ranges are known for lasting quality, thoughtful design, and culinary performance that stands out.

Selecting the right cooking setup comes down to how you use your kitchen, how much space you have, and your personal preferences. Both Wolf ranges and cooktops bring top-tier performance, but each has unique advantages depending on your needs.

Pros of a Wolf Range:

  • Combines cooktop and oven in a single unit
  • Ideal for traditional kitchen designs or smaller spaces
  • Available in a variety of styles, including the Wolf electric range and Wolf dual fuel range
  • Great for avid home cooks who want everything in one place

Pros of a Wolf Cooktop:

  • Lets you place the cooktop where it works best for your workflow
  • Options like the Wolf induction cooktop offer sleek looks and fast, precise heat

Things to Consider:

  • A Wolf range top may be best if you’re remodeling or designing a space from scratch
  • Cooktops are great if you want wall ovens at a convenient height or plan to mix and match features

Why Trust Bekins Appliances and Electronics?

Bekins is a local, family-owned, internationally acclaimed appliance and electronics company in West Michigan. It started as a service company in 1975 when Harvey and Barbara Bekins started their own appliance repair business out of their home in Grand Haven. We still view ourselves as a service company today, but now we also sell, install, and service both appliances and electronics across West Michigan.

Scott started in the business as an 8-year-old holding the flashlight for his father. Scott rolled in the first appliances when Harvey and Barb opened our Grand Haven showroom in 1982. After Scott bought the company from his parents, Bekins started offering custom electronic services and then expanded with another state-of-the-art, interactive showroom in Grand Rapids.

In all, Bekins has earned more than 21 national and international honors. That does not include their Better Business Bureau Torch Award for Ethics or their Grand Haven Tribune People’s Choice Award for Best Appliances (17 years and counting!).
