This was a huge upgrade from the previous professional range that I've had for years, but which just stopped working. The mechanics are solid and sturdy and the oven pre-heats remarkably quickly. The look is fantastic, it is easy to clean and the minimal controls are perfect - easy to use and not excessive. The power of the burners is great and the variety of BTU's is perfect. Really happy with this range and I'm someone who cooks for a living.
