What you want is Bluestar with open burners.

If you don't like brass burners, you'll have to go with aluminum burners. Brass is pretty much better in every way except it will patina. Aluminum, when used a lot will warp eventually (although it will take a long time). There are brands where for this reason, provide black porcelain burner caps.

I think at this point you just need to fork out the money to have your cleaner polish your brass…

You’re crazy…brass is there for a reason and to withstand the heat

Hello !

Whirlpool - mid range Ge Profile - step up Bosch - step up

Those would my order of brands I’d pick if Whirlpool was in the mix.

They are both Whirpools. One just has more features.

Wow. $600 for a griddle attached to the right grate. Nice one, Whirlpool.

I sold appliances years ago and whirlpool makes a very good burner system,,, unless you go high-end like wolf or Viking, they’re all about the same,,, I’ll keep in mind if you live in California they will be banned in a few years, forcing everybody to get electric or induction,,, you should look into induction anyway they’re not cheap, but they use far less power than either gas or electric and cook in about a third of the time New York

Does it have to be gas? Induction is the way to go. Its safer, faster, and gives you far more control.

Im sorry that noone was able to help you out.

The most important when buying gasstoves, is to be sure to get at least one really powerful big burner for searing, especially important if you want to make wok cooking!

Maby the people over at r/appliances can help you out?

If you don't specify a budget somebody is inevitably going to suggest a model so eye-wateringly expensive you'll need to refinance your home to pay for it.

Unless you want to spend a lot more on something like a Wolf or Thermador you're probably going to continue to get lousy knobs. I've found you can often take the part number for your knob and get a set of identical knobs on Amazon for less than the price of one official OEM knob.

Wolf 36 inch induction.

What to look for, at least 15k BTU per burner.

Quality construction, service and support.
If it feels and looks cheap, pass.
You get what you pay for with appliance.

I noticed from your other posts that the concern is the heat provided for Indian cooking on Induction.

The temperature on a decent induction cooktops such as Bosch/Siemens can give you consistent temperature to the cookware up to 220°C and can be set to other lower settings using “PerfectFry” which is basically sensors under the glass reading the temperature of your cookware through the glass.

When comparing gas cooktops, the actual burners that give you the power/performance are commonly sourced by the major brands from the same gas burner / jet manufactures in Italy called DEFENDI or SABAF which you can see branded on the actual burners.

This is why most major brands will have a similar max output on the largest burner, which in the UK this is often advertised in KW and usually maxes out at around 4-5KW or 13-17,000BTU. https://imgur.com/a/gMip3Tn

Depending on the size of the cooktop and your budget, you can get into higher spec brands with higher out put if that is the goal.

The main concern I would have is that you might be trying to get really high “wok style” heat which can’t be achieved with normal indoor home appliances compared to commercial grade or outdoor options as there are regulations that limit how much output a gas cooktop provide in a residential home.

This is where it is best to have an area outdoor setup of an inexpensive wok burner that will give you intense heat and the performance that some people want to achieve, I have a friends that do heaps of asian style cooking and this is the only way to achieve the results. Example below of a 12KW or 40,000BTU burner.

We switched from a Miele induction top to a Blue Star gas range. Zero regrets. Just couldn't get used to the heat control on the Miele and the open burners and overall simplicity of the Blue Star is awesome.

There are very few residential grade gas ovens for sale. OP likely did not mean gas ovens, just gas cooktop.

I have a gas Bluestar and I love it. I got it because I was able to test one- my friends have one- and I loved how powerful the high burner is (it's the 30 inch with four burners, one is extra powerful so your 'quick boil', and one is a simmer/low setting one) and how well the oven heats- even and quick.

I very much prefer a gas cooktop, just not ovens.

Electric ovens are much better than gas. They cook far more evenly and heat up faster. What you want, most likely, is a dual fuel range. Gas cooktop, electric oven.

What's best depends on your budget and what size you're looking at. At the top end, Miele, Thermador and Bluestar are probably the top 3 (have heard not so good things about Wolf lately, but if you like them, throw that in).

What is required to switch from gas to induction and what brand induction did you go with?

Retired chef here. Bread and souffles were my *only* job for 10 years.

Quick-boil burner? You are describing a range, not an oven. I can afford any range on the market. I chose a 60" Thermador dual-fuel commercial depth range. Gas up top. Electric steam ovens. (Gas is NOT even and therefore not the best solution for baking.) It has two oven compartments -- one small, one large. So I can choose the size to the amount of baking I am doing. Usually the small one is sufficient.

There are very few parts to this range. And they're interchangeable with every Thermador range ever made. So repairs probably won't be necessary. And if they are, they can be done by the owner in a matter of minutes. (Assuming the owner can move the thing. Mine weighs 600 pounds.)

Don't you just need non aluminum pans? So cast iron and stainless steel work fine?

Have you needed to replace any parts on it? I've heard about people having issues with the oven thermostat, convection fan, and igniters.

Glad to hear. I've never researched an appliance or car more that a replacement gas range.  Lol!  Leaning to bluestar.  Thx! 

I got this cast iron one for two burners and I love it. Can also be used on a grill.

Lodge Pre-Seasoned Cast Iron Reversible Grill/Griddle With Handles, 20 Inch x 10.5 Inch - One tray https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00008GKDQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_QY5FTFHNHKE673EVT9C2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

a decent cast iron reversible griddle/grill will last a long, long time stick with lodge or some other well known brand wont regret it (two burner coverage gives a large cooking serfuce, if you want single burner your better off with a cast iron grill pan

Lodge. They have the best QC. Any employee can scrap any casting any time for any reason.

For years while I had a gas cooktop I used a Le Crueset double sided griddle. It was excellent.
