I read and read reviews on 36" ranges and just couldn't justify spending 2x times the cost of this affordable but sleek option. I knew I needed stainless steel top and a lot don't over that, this does and its easy to clean.  Slightly more modern in appearance then Viking or Wolf and with not nearly the weight (its a little light on its legs) the performance cant be beat.  No bells or whistles but are the things that break anyway.
