It does not upset me, its wasting everyone's time. Here are stove variables:

  1. Gas/Electric
  2. Single/Double oven
  3. Convection or no
  4. Width constraints
  5. Amount of burners
  6. Specialty burner factors like built in grills, ventilation, etc.
  7. Price
  8. Aesthetics

If you want real help online, you need to sort these all out and make a well formed question. And the above applies to almost anything. A question like "Stove, thanks" is as helpful as "Car, thanks"....take the time to form a great question to get a great answer, otherwise you are wasting you and the internet's time.

Somewhat preventative measures so it won’t be more costly down the road but A lot of things that added up: Repairing outdoor pergolas with wood rotting with fungus -$15K Replacing Backyard fence-$11K Repairing Pavers -$8K? Repairing Outdoor irrigation Replacing plants that irrigation killed Repairing Kitchen hood and vent Adding turf to replace some plants Our add in since we’re already doing above: Extending BBQ station Extending drink station

…. There’s more Im missing and of course labor costs.

I wanted to love hexclad, but the coating came off on one pan within 6 months. I had received it as a gift and they understandably needed a receipt but my mom (the gift giver) couldnt find it but had the charge on her card. They wouldn’t help me unfortunately, so I’m a little biased.

Hmmm. I was finding them online for 8-60k. It was very helpful though. I love the style and those cabinets!

I would be happy to give more detail. I figured perhaps in error that making 15 plus posts with massive detail in each would be spamming so I combined everything. So far I have gotten a good amount of suggestions and feedback for things that have been immensely helpful.

Would you like more detail of what I’m looking for in a stove/oven? I mention in the original post ( I think?) that I wanted a gas cabinet oven. I’m not sure how much more detail I could give.

I’m sorry my post has upset you.

I have a couple Made-in items, an 8x8 enamel and an 8" saute pan. Both were won at the Austin Food and Wine Festival, they're nice but at their price point I prefer AC, LC, and Lodge.

One thing I don't like is that I think they use their name to confuse customers in believing their line is "made in" the united states... But it's not.

You can't even buy a new oven door for this for $10,000. That's the point...when you post no details of wanting things, you aren't going to get proper help. That's a stove that costs more than your house likely.
