You need to be a bit more specific than does not light. Does the ignitor spark? Does gas come out? Can you light it with a match? Does any part of it light? Do all the other ignitors spark? (As long as the burner caps are seated properly, orientation doesn't make a difference. My Wolf fully ignites no matter how I orient the outer cap: slit opposite the ignitor or 180 degrees away.) Most likely problem is a cracked or broken ignitor if the other ignitors spark, followed by a bad ignitor module if none of them spark (unless you have a 48" unit which has two modules, so burners might spark on one side and not the other.)

I have a Wolf AG range. I like the burners on the AG, and I like having the ability to remove the burner pans for cleaning if/when I want. For smaller cleaning, I'll spot clean using paper towel and Perfect Kitchen (blue bottle) from BB&B. It was recommended at the Wolf showroom in NJ. They don't seem to carry all the "Perfect" cleaning products in all the BB&B's (they make Perfect granite, Perfect Bathroom, etc.) so you might need to look for it. For a more thorough cleaning, I remove the grates and the burner pans and scrub them in the sink. I don't always clean the grates when I clean the pans as they don't always need cleaning. The pans I can clean pretty quickly using a blue scrub sponge, a small squirt of dish soap, and a sprinkle or more of BKF. If the pans are really grimy, or have caked/burnt on crud, I'll spray them with Dawn Power Dissolver and let them sit for awhile before scrubbing (don't let it drip on HW flooring though, it eats through the poly, as does Easy Off, I think). I like that I can scrub the burner pans in the sink and then rinse them off with the spray, rather than trying to rinse/clean off soap and cleansers when they are attached to the range. I dry the pans while they are still "hot" after rinsing using a dishtowel (FYI, I use Ritz Wonder Towels--they absorb a lot of water, continue to dry things even when very damp, and don't leave lint behind). If there are any smudges after you've replaced them on the range, you can buff/wipe them off with a dry microfiber, dishtowel or paper towel if they bug you. I promise you, it sounds more complicated and time-consuming than it really is. Yes, more time than cleaning the old white 4 burner rangetop we had before, but the trade-offs are still well worth it! Also, after you've done it a few times, you get youre "routine" down and it goes pretty quickly. For the record; I am far from "Sally clean" and I certainly don't clean my range every day (or even every week, though some weeks I should!). I'd go with the AG burners again in a heartbeat.

" Posted by deeageaux DCS is actually one of the better ones. Don't know if you have a lemon or an oven door that was assembled incorrectly. Bluestar will have one of the largest interiors but have the hottest or one of the hottest oven doors on the market. Wolf is near the top. From my experience and from what I a have read Capital has the coolest oven door, maybe there are others that match it or beat it but have not read so in credible source." What is your "credible source" for this ranking? Please post. "There used to be a dealer that did test and published data on this very subject but Bluestar used high powered lawyers to bully him into removing his data from his website." Do you have proof for this accusation? Trevor Lawson of Eurostoves has this on his website under "test data" comparing the CC and BS now but most thinking people would not consider "data" provided by a competitor to be unbiased especially if you have any knowledge about how scientific testing is done. This becomes more evident as you look at how the other "tests" are set up and presented. There have been complaints on this forum about the door being hot on the BS. There have been some things written saying that BS fixed the hot door but a poster here that had an older one and a new one thought the new one had a hotter door. BlueStar review On the Wolf, it may depend on if you are talking about the AG or the DF. I think there have been a couple of complaints about the AG, but others who had it seemed to think there was something wrong with it. Maybe an actual owner will comment about the AG. I have the Wolf DF and the doors and surrounds stay very cool. We have grandkids(toddlers) running around and while I believe in teaching them to stay away from "hot" and they are watched closely, it is wonderful to have the peace of mind that a cool door is one less hazard. Even after running a couple of hours the door is cool and the only part even warm at all is at the bottom. I couldn't find any place even hot, let alone uncomfortably hot.

I've had a Lacanche Sully for two years and love it. I have one gas oven and one electric. I use the gas oven almost every night; I brown meat on stovetop then transfer to oven. Works beautifully. I use the electric for baking (although i bake much less frequently). I do rotate my pans when baking cookies. Don't for cakes, though. Round pans must let more air circulate and bake more evenly. Maybe convection option is better for bakers. I wanted a gas oven for roasting, and also wanted an electric oven with broiler, so no room for convection. As for racks, it's true they definitely don't glide! But I find that as long as I don't push them too far back, they're pretty easy to pull and push. It doesn't bug me, although racks that really glide would be very nice. But I have heard that most oven racks tend to get gunked up and stop gliding over time. Don't know if this is true. I do like my french top very much, especially in the winter when I like to do lots of stews, braises, and use my tagine (my latest obsession). When I'm doing a big dinner it's nice to keep things warm on the corners, or toast nuts without worry (heat is much more forgiving). All in all, very very happy with my range. My dishwashers are another story!
