Comments (28)I'm just a basic cook, certainly not of the caliber of other GWers here. I envy their talent. I used to love to cook and to experiment with recipes. And then I had kids and well, things changed. :) DH wants to take cooking lessons with me so hopefully I'll get to be more adventurous and skilled again. Buying a pan from different lines to try it out is my plan, alex9179. I read good reviews on Farberware's Millenium line and it's reasonably priced so I'll start there. And I plan to ask Santa for a Le Crueset Dutch oven, maybe a red one to go with my scarlet Fiestware dishes. :) And I will definitely check out cookware at the link you included, thanks! Thanks to you, too, sjhockeyfan, for the cookware suggestions. sjhockeyfan and westsider, thanks for the tips about using the touch pad. I've been known to press the keys on my keyboard harder than necessary as if it were an old-fashioned typewriter like the ones I learned to type on. Oops. Interesting, westsider, about the amp requirements. We wouldn't have had an issue since we added an extra panel over a year ago to handle the big power tools my hubby inherited from my dad (both hobby woodworkers). We haven't filled up the new circuit breaker so we have power to spare. Not a bad situation to be in. I compared the kW of the 8666 to the discontinued 5665. They are nearly identical; the only difference I could see was for the middle burner. The 8666 has a higher kW. And yet the overall electrical connection requirement is less. Curious. Well, as long as I can use all 5 burners (not all on boost, I know that much) on the rare occasions when I need to, I'll be happy. Thanks, again, everyone, you've been immensely helpful (even if I did get a little confused there for a bit). sjhockeyfan, I gotta ask. Are you in the Bay area? My DS1 moved there in March and couldn't wait to go to a hockey game. Doesn't care for other sports that much but he loves hockey. I think he likes it mostly for the fights. Like the old joke: I went to a fight and a hockey game broke out. :)...See MoreNew Bertazzoni Induction Range?
Comments (55)I would urge anyone interested in Bertazzoni to exercise CAUTION. I own their beautiful professional range, 90cm oven with induction top. When we first plugged it the fan oven is was so noisy it was virtually unusable, especially in an open kitchen. We got it "repaired" but it didn't change anything and the repairman gave up, saying there was nothing he could do with this machine. Two and a half years after getting it (and using exclusively the traditional oven) the induction packed up! But worst of all is the total lack of response and support from the company. Their distributor in my country seems to have changed or disappeared and Bertazzoni is totally ignoring my calls for help and information as to what to do. I'm left to call independent repairmen and nobody wants to come near it. I now have a 5K door-stopper. My Bertazzoni range is my worst purchase EVER, on EVERY level - build quality, customer service, you name it. That'll teach me buying something because it looks good. Go online (actually, just read this particular thread!), you'll find many, many people complaining how poor quality this brand is, which won't stop Bertazzoni from charging you big bucks and presenting themselves as a luxury brand. They've got a nice little system going, thinking there will always be suckers who will throw caution to the wind because their stuff looks really nice. And there are - I was one of them! I honestly feel I've been scammed. I live in Europe, an hour away from Italy, so I can only imagine that it's even worse if one lives overseas....See MoreBosch 36 inch industrial gas range vs. Thermador or GE Cafe
Comments (2)What did you decide as I am currently having same dilemma? Any input would be super helpful! Thermador clearly has poor customer service, Cafe reviews seem great but am reading about their grates cracking now but Bosch professional range seems so new I can’t find much about it....See MoreBertazzoni Professional vs Fulgor Milano Sofia vs Cafe CommericalStyle
Comments (11)Hi, I have been looking extensively at Bertazzoni Master Series and Fulgor Pro Series. I LOVE the temp dial on the Bert, however we have decided to go with Fulgor. The soft close door is dreamy, I believe that Fulgor uses a lower gauge steel in the oven cavity (meaning thicker steel, more durable IMHO) it was quite noticeable. Additionally, the cooktop/rangetop uses a black porcelain/enamel surface vs stainless steel and I think that will be easier to clean. We have friends with a Bert range and they love it, they bake a lot and theirs is dual-fuel, which I understand that electric has better heat consistency in the oven. And the kitchen suite we have configured is lower cost than Bert when rebates are used. My $.02 .I did speak to the perso at Bert Service who schedules service calls and she was quite confident that the calls they get are typical components that can fail, not major issues, I felt very comfortable after that call. In the end, I just felt Fulgor was higher quality. Italian design is awesome, you'll love either....See MorePriya Kesavan
