[quote=Anonymous]I worked in a kitchen alongside some great chefs. Unless you're making really huge batches of soup every day, any range/cooktop of reasonable quality is just fine. This whole obsession with burner power and open vs closed is really just marketing BS for rich people who like to research things and buy gadgets. Having a hugely overpowered burner is fine, as long as it's well-ventilated, but also completely unnecessary. Oven quality/fuel varies much more and is maybe worth spending for depending on what you want to do with it. A burner is a burner. Pots and pans, liquid and stirring do a good job of distributing heat. So pick a well enough made burners, open or closed depending on your cleaning preferences. But only get something super intense if you will enjoy knowing how many BTUs it has and thinking about how much you paid for it, like a sports car or something. It won't make a difference to your cooking performance. [/quote]
