Wolf is just a waste of money – you’re paying for the red knobs.  We considered induction, but opted for the BlueStar instead, because the open burner is perfect for wok cooking and it’s incredibly powerful.  It also has an oversize oven.  But it’s a real pain to clean, even more so than a closed burner like the Wolf, so may nor be worth it.  We may do induction if we had to do it over.

Agree with all drawers.  We have about 50/50, and I wish there were more drawers.

We have a prep sink on the edge of the island, and it’s great – doesn’t break up the flow at all.    Remember to put a sprayer in it – it’s a pain to clean otherwise.

If you really cook, you definitely need a range good for searing, etc.

Agree about stainless sink.  If you really have limited space, consider one of the stainless workstations by Kraus and others.

Agree on the fridge/freezer, but only if you have a separate freezer/fridge in the basement or garage.

We put an appliance garage in the corner, to make use of the wasted space.  It’s great, but makes the room feel a little smaller.  It houses the vitamix, food processor, and some other small appliances.  I probably should curate it.

Absolutely love the built in, pull out knife block and utensil bins, which we have next to the range.  WE have a knife block and 4 bins.
