heats up faster than my mother-in laws wolf range and thats only the beginning. the speed burner is great for boiling water super fast, i only maybe wish the middle flame ring had it's own dial on the speed burner. the long burner in the middle has also been fun for small pancakes and bacon on those weekends. we are glad that we spent a little more to get those two upgraded burners. in a few words, it looks great and works great. we love it! it is perfect for us with lots of oven space. only thing we don't like is the sound of the timer, but that doesn't change how we feel about the range. cant wait to try all of the cook settings. to quote the kids, this range is "lit!" 

i received compensation for this review but the review is my own.
