2011 DCS 36' gas range - time sensitive question
Comments (0)Hi there - A couple of months ago I had decided on the DCS 36" gas range for our kitchen remodel but just found out that the model I looked at is no longer available. Unfortunately, the store in my area that carries DCS doesn't yet have the new 2011 DCS 36" gas range on its floor and I am unable to see it. My contractor needs my appliance specs within the next couple of days and I was hoping for some feedback from those who have seen both the older and newer models to compare the two for me and from those of you who have purchased the 2011 model to let me know what you think. Thanks!!...See MoreNew 48 inch range - DCS vs. American Range vs. Five Star
Comments (3)In general: I have had open and closed burner gas tops and closed are 100% easier to clean, I would never never get open unless I had daily cleaning help. The BTU rating on the highest burner is important, as well as a very small BTU simmer burner. I also need continuous grate to slide a pot over, and prefer mechanical knobs to electronic keypads. There are some cooktops where the grates are too high off the burners and there are complaints of a feeling of under-powered burners despite the BTU rating. I think this whole open burner for the home thing is nothing short of ridiculous, it is more of a high volume restaurant issue, but his is gardenweb... I do not like the performance of gas ovens. I like electric and I love the functionality of convection. I would never buy an oven without convection. So I would vote for closed burner gas cooking and electric ovens....See MoreHELP PLEASE New Dacor range to replace old DCS (Fisher Paykel) range?
Comments (1)Gosh that's really up to you. A sane person could come out either way there. However, if you think you might want to try something new, like induction for example, it would be a good opportunity....See MoreCooling Fan Noise in DCS Range
Comments (1)Hi. Have you got some experience with your new range ? I had a Thermador 48” and it is definitely not getting along with my migraine :)...See Moresudaki
