WOLF 36' Sealed Burner Rangetop- griddle or 6 burners?
Comments (1)Whoops--I think you want this on the Kitchen forum....See MoreWolf RT36 Griddle Plate?
Comments (16)@Payal I don’t think Treg is here but maybe this will help. I have add ins for the following reasons. It gives you flexibility with your burners. Not only can you use 6 burners when you need them but you can place the griddle anywhere on the burners. I have picked up the whole griddle and put it in the oven. You can have your choice of metals. I have these by Royal Industries. http://royalindustriesinc.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=4_22_48 They are heavy aluminum which conducts heat more quickly than steel. This makes it heat more evenly and they respond quickly when you turn them up or down. They make them in bare metal which will season eventually or nonstick. They are inexpensive so you can have both. Some people want steel and Chef King makes that. They are heavier to move. One characteristic of steel whether it is an add on or built in is that it has warmer and cooler areas. Some people like this for cooking and holding. https://www.dvorsons.com/ChefKing/Griddles.htm The 2 burner add on has much more cooking area. on my range it was about 50% more. I have the 15”x23”. The add on isn’t confined to the width of the burner grates. You have the potential for a lot more heat with an add on. The heat for built ins is around 15K BTUs over the two burners. Depending on the burners you have, 15K on each burner gives you 30K, something like BlueStar would be even more. You can adjust the heat for each end separately. You can pick up the griddle and wash it in the sink with an add on. If you need to replace, it is easy and inexpensive. For some built in griddles like the steel ones it isn’t likely that you would ever need to do that but it depends on the brand of range you buy and what the griddle is made of and what sort of finish it has. The advantages to built in- easily reproducible temperatures. You turn it to 350°F you get that same temperature. For the add on it is more like using a pan. You have to eyeball it. Some people might like the stability of the griddle being built in. Some people just want the look of the built in. You didn’t say what brand you were looking at but there might be some additional considerations depending on the brand....See MoreWolf 36" L series wall oven under a 36" induction cooktop?
Comments (0)Does anyone have this oven? It looks like it is 3 or 4 inches shorter in height than the 30" wall oven. Since I can't find a 36" induction range, I am considering putting a 36" induction cooktop and this 36" wide Wolf oven underneath it. Would that work? I read that it is not good ergonomically to do this because the oven will be very low, but if this Wolf oven is shorter in height would that help a bit? As in it could be installed a few inches higher off the floor than the 30" one? If I could get a 36" induction range I would not have to consider this alternative. I could do a 36" duel fuel range instead, but I wanted to change to induction over gas. Related to this question - are any companies making/going to make a 36" induction range? I really need the extra room on the cooktop part....See Morewhich vah for 36' wolf ag with griddle?
Comments (18)Instead of a new thread, I was wondering if anyone has any new opinions or pics. We are purchasing the Wolf 36" AG with griddle and have chosen the VAH wall mount style - EPH18-236, but are waffling on the 24" and 27" depth. I order this week and I haven't been able to find this combination of range and hood in pic or person. It looks like the 24" would work, since the front of the range is 24.5 ". My husband is 6' tall and I'm concerned about the 27" depth being inconvenient for him. Any help is apppreciated....See MoreNunyabiz1
