15 year old Viking stove has enough issues that it isn't worth repairing. Considering BlueStar, another Viking, maybe Wolf. Feels like everything has people complaining and raving about them online. Has to be LP and I don't want that "dual fuel" bullshit. All gas.
What say you, XO?

going through this rn. would have preferred getting an induction cooktop, but we don't have the 240 outlet and don't want to pay for it + all the drywall repair, etc.
the appliance repair dude said Wolf or Bluestar are noticeably higher quality than anything else. they use better parts down to screws and shit + he can source parts for ones regardless of how old.
our 20yr old Dacor has several burners that try to ignite constantly and can't get shit like a gasket to repair it.

I've used induction before and if I just had to use electric that's what I would get. However, I absolutely hate electric. Man cooked for most of human history on open fire. That's the way to do it. Grilled food and food on open flame tastes better. Yeah, electric might be more precise or whatever, but it loses that special something that open flame has.
Some of the sealed burner designs from those companies have high BTU burners. For example: https://www.bluestarcooking.com/cooking/ranges/30-sealed-burner-series/

Blue star/lacanache are the best. La Cornue is better made but seem to have more issues. They also have a model called the 180. It’s the official range of XO. It’s like $60k. I bought a used one for pennies on the dollar.
Or just fix what you have. The boards are easy to repair, igniters are consumables and cheap. That’s how I got mine. Cheap used because people are idiots who can’t fix anything.
Pre-1998 have the piezo oven ignitors which are better. The best is an electric oven and gas range top. My 5 star (so old it’s what blue star used to be called). I like the French burners because they are easier to clean and you can get a massive burner as an option.

dacor cooktop, hood, oven, microwave (wtf) and warmer were installed by prior owners of our home.
i personally would have bought none of it
- cooktop: per prior post, multiple igniters clicking when gas is cranked up. parts difficult to come by.
- oven: looks like it's never completely closed because thermal padding/gasket slightly deformed over time
- warmer: dries food, IMO. maybe i'm doing something wrong
- microwave: works like any other, but LOL @ the $800++ or so price for this thing.
- hood: ok i guess, nothing special, it's a hood. knobs for the fan and the light feel flimsy though

Get four induction burners and a single or double gas burner. Wolf makes a modular system that allows this
Separately, get double wall ovens

LOL, I was waiting for a coupon or sale or something. Now prices for everything went up today because inflation is fucking us all. BlueStar added $300-400/range.
Now considering this because it is still "only" $4k: https://www.americanrangehome.com/product/30-performer-range/
