[quote=Anonymous]Because I moved around frequently for my job, I've cooked on quite a range of stoves from the very fancy, bells and whistles, to the mundane and even the cheapest possible stove you could get away with in an expensive rental (you'd be surprised). Did the expensive stoves make a difference in my cooking? Nope. Not at all. None whatsoever. If anything, the cheap and basic gas stove didn't break down on me while one of the luxury stoves did. At least I didn't have to pay to repair it. I also didn't like the fancy stoves because they're aggressively overengineered far beyond what you need for home cooking, even serious home cooking. I do understand the appeal of a nice looking stove and when I do a remodel, it will be a factor. But the stoves you get in the 2-4k category are going to be just as good as any Viking or La Cornue. The baseline Bosch is all you really need. More than that is design preference rather than any cooking advantages. [/quote]
