    Hi Mary a free standing range is a lot more typical to what you would usually see in just about anyone's kitchen. Yes it can definitely go between two cabinets. A slide in range varies but basically as a rule it has to go between cabinets.

    As long as you have the right width between the cupboards you could do either.

    Yes. The difference is that the slide in range is usually attached to the wall or cupboards.
