Does anyone have a Wolf induction cooktop or decide against one ?
Comments (28)It's not too loud most of the time, but is noticeable when the room is otherwise quiet. I am staring to get used to the sounds made by the cooktop. They are louder when the pan is cold or empty, and the sizzling or bubbling does effectively cover up the tick-buzz rhythm. It also varies depending on what utensil is being, used with cast iron being the quietest. My Calphalon Contemporary Stainless 10" skillet is the noisiest , but a similarly sized Scanpan non-stick makes only moderate noise as does the 3 qt. Calphalon saute' pan. I guess it has to do with resonant frequencies and the physics of the situation. Since I really like the cooking performance, layout, efficiency and easy cleaning of the stove I will learn to live with the sounds it generates. My only other complaint with the unit is the childproof lock. I have no need for a nanny looking over my shoulder making sure I don't do anything dangerous. The unit doesn't even turn on unless there's a appropriately sized magnetic object on top and shuts off if it gets too hot. There are no locks on other types of cooktops. It is annoying to have to wait for the controls to unlock, but I have found that if I put a wet sponge on the "key", it will enable the controls while I do other things. Is there a way to permanently disable the lock feature for us grown-ups?...See MoreWolf or Thermador 36” professional range?
Comments (4)In my opinion the primary difference between Wolf and Thermador is the under-hood capture area. Wolf has a deep, sufficient space to capture bursts of effluent that may outpace your blower, thus rendering the hood more effective. Thermador has varying angles to the under-hood baffles, so it depends on which model you get, but as a general rule, the Thermador under-hood capture area is not as deep as that of Wolf. I purchased a used floor model of a Wolf hood and got a nice discount. All Wolf distributors should be giving you a discount off list price, so just ask. . . . Just realized you are asking about ranges, not hoods. The same pricing discount system would be in effect for Wolf ranges. You may learn more about that here: [How Wolf Pricing Works[(https://www.houzz.com/discussions/wolf-vent-hood-pricing-dsvw-vd~5585453?n=15)....See More30 in induction range: Wolf, Bertazzoni, f&p, or cafe
Comments (11)Hi Evan, I just went for the 30” F&P pro (RGV3305N). My wife and I were on the fence between induction and gas and decided to live with the devil we know. We already have the F&P flex door fridge, and were planning on the dishdrawer regardless, so it definitely factored into the decision. Other contenders were KitchenAid and the platinum glass Cafe line, but availability remains terrible. Cafe also lacks a counter depth flex door option (yet) which killed my interest. The range and DW will be installed next Wednesday and I can give you more info if interested....See MoreAGA 36" Professional Induction Range vs 48" Mercury
