New Stove and Oven

i'd go induction over gas.... and it will save you the money and headache of installing the tank and running gas lines.

I don't think it'd be hard. The range and oven are being relocated from an island to an exterior wall.

So what are good lp range brands? The only LP ranges I've ever used were in 5th wheels.

My wife is looking at a Thor thing that is 36" and lp range with electric oven. Somewhere around $2500 or so. Is it worth a shite?

She wants the 48" but I said no, it's just two of us ffs.

I don't have any gas lines. Electric only as of this moment.

I t really doesn't matter on conveneniece or running lines at this point. They replaced all windows and siding and cut a hole in the kitchen wall to frame a new window in.

And they haven't even started inside yet. This is a mess. I can't believe I let my wife talk me into this.

Wish me luck trying to convince her to choose an induction.

JEN-AIR is running a special where you get $1,400 off 2 appliances right now.

their 36" gas range is around $6k and with the $1400 back you can use that for their top-of-the-line dishwasher so you're looking at maybe $6600 after taxes for a range & dishwasher if you go that route. they can be converted from NG to LP; I tihnk pretty much all high end stoves can.

you definitely want dual fuel; nobody wants a gas oven.

i had a hallman in the past and i wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy. also avoid the illve (sp?) which is a re-branded hallman. the low prices suck people in but they're problem-central.

zline is hit or miss. another lower-budget dual fuel gas range option and costco runs sales all the time with the various models so that is also an option.

we went induction after debating this topic forever. we have a 120g propane tank already but we would have needed to run a line, convert the stove, have the LP company come out and adjust the flow and in the end, the cost worked out about the same for the induction without worrying about gas.

plus we have a really nice outdoor gas grill station with multiple burners and a sear station on it so we have a gas option when we need it.

I convinced her on an induction and she informed the contractor that we were going to stay electric.

But overall, this has become a mess. Today she told me that I had to move my gun safes out of the house. I told her that's enough bullshite. They're big ones and dang near impossible to move even when empty.

Go shop at a LP vendor that sells stoves, ranges, gas fireplaces, propane tanks, refills tanks, etc. I went through one and bought a lp fireplace gas log set, and am renting their 500 gal tank. They installed the fireplace log set, above ground tank, and ran the gas line to it from the tank. Turn key job. These companies sell water heaters, ranges, etc.. Find one in your area and go visit them.

Well my wife went down to Dallas today to appliance shop. My wife came back talking about a 36" Wolf for $11,500. Does that even seem remotely correct?

And then some crap about Wolf having a sale if you buy 2 items, so now she wants a Wolf dishwasher.

I guess if that's what she wants, I'll probably do it but damn that's high.
