Based on watching many of your videos, we chose Wolf for our new kitchen remodel. A Professional 48'" dual fuel range, matching 30" wall oven, and the microwave. Your expertise helped us tremendously.
I'll always pick Wolf cooktops and Meile ovens, I've used a few different brands but those are the ones my food comes out best with. Blue Star is really good too. My aunt just got a Wolf convection range, doesn't use the Wi-Fi features, it mildly infuriates me. It doesn't seem that long ago my granny Brienza bought her very first gas oven in the early 1980s, it was a Bertazzoni, her previous oven was also a Bertazzoni, a 50s woodburner they got as a wedding gift, she had that one shipped from Enna, Italy to Vancouver, BC when they immigrated to Canada, lasted her near 30 years. She loved her Bertazzonis, had 3 over time, taught me many authentic Italian recipes with them.
My aunt Jan, 70 years old, doesn't use a cell phone either, still uses a flip phone with no internet and only because a landline won't cut it in today's world. She doesn't use most of the buttons on her tv remote because she doesn't know what they do, I'm like "Push them and find out", she's all "Nah, I don't care what they do." She's a throwback to the old ways of things.
@yale since Colorado utilities are usually propane gas and soso electrical what are good ranges to buy also could a miele steam oven function there if I opted for countertop due to life in mountain living
It is a shame that Bluestar's reliability is so poor. I think if a company produced a simple no frills pro-style range with high quality burners and stellar reliability would print money. Bluestar is nearly there. American made, awesome powerful open burners that serious cooks love, simple convection oven with no fancy electronics to fail, great professional looks. What kills them is their poor reliability due to use of cheap components when it comes to things like oven igniters, thermostats etc. It's even more shameful given the basic design of the RCS and RNB lines is literally decades old. You'd have think they'd have those things dialed into perfection by now. Not to mention they don't have any more legacy development costs. How hard is it to make a simple bullet-proof gas range with great burners?
You guys really are the only reviewers to emphasize the need for adequate ventilation when it comes to pro ranges. Bravo guys.

Do you recommend using the self clean on pro ranges? My repair guy said the self clean cycle fries the wiring.
It doesnt fry the wiring....stresses the oven, but not if you use it sparingly.
Viking only on color options? Wow...
Yeah.....different than years ago
Steve, drippings are not "evaporated". Drippings include solids, which can't be "evaporated".
Sorry...How about...Its easier to clean.
