Looking at buying a 48" Range

[Andy M.]

Hi, lexie. Have you considered other brands?

Hi Andy M., Yes i have and I am driving myself crazy doing the research. I have always had Thermador pro cooktops in the past, however, we are moving to a new house and due to the Kitchen layout I am now considering a 48" Range. What are your thoughts? I have done extensive research on the thermador pro grand, the decor epicure and the wolf. I also looked at the dcs now made by Fisher paykel.

I don't have any first-hand knowledge. I know there have been a lot of complaints about Wolf products. I can;t say if the 48" was specifically mentioined. Older threads here might be helpful.

You'll still get star burners w/ the Pro series range. The good (esthetic) thing is they have brass bases, whereas the plain cooktop has aluminum. The aluminum bases on mine are working their way to looking like brass - .

I always liked Thermador, just not sold on these star burners.
