I'm trying to replace my electric Jennair with gas. I would like to keep the price of the cooktop under $1600 or so.. We have a gas line in the house and that aspect is not complicated but I want to switch the duct work so that I can have a range hood (not a downdraft) so the installation expenses will be significant. I'm really getting a headache finding the right cooktop. I love the Caldera but I think the 5 burners are going to be too crowded. I need something that is good for wok cooking. Good simmer control is also important. I saw a 30" 4 burner Wolf that looked good but the highest BTU was 15,000. I think a little higher would be better (like the 18,000 Caldera). I'm not sure I need 22,000 like the Blue Star level. Any suggestions?? Many thanks for your help!
