The drawer on my gas stove is a storage drawer. On my mother's
stove it was the broiler.

The drawer on my two year old stove is a bit smaller than the
drawer that was on my glass cooktop stove. But that's because
the oven itself is larger and I installed a pot rack over
the kitchen window to make up for that lost storage space.
That has worked out quite well.
