I can’t seem to find the original thread discussing this, so I am starting a new one.
So with all that said, I am looking at 36” wide induction ranges. I was considering Wolf, but not available until November, and I’m not willing to wait that long. Models that have a 4 to 6 week lead time are:
Fisher & Paykel RIV3-365
Bertazzoni MAST365INSXT
Bosch HIS8655SS
ILVE UMI09NS3SSC
Anyone have any experience with any of the above brands?
My cookware is all induction capable so no worries there.

A recent analysis of 27 studies on the effects of gas appliances on children concluded 12.7 per cent of current childhood asthma in the U.S. can be attributed to gas stove use — ranging from three per cent in Florida to 21.1 per cent in Illinois. (The percentage of homes with gas stoves is much higher in Illinois than in Florida.)
We're using our portable induction cooktop as much as possible instead of the gas top, too bad the oven is gas too. We may eventually switch back to full electric, buy new or resurrect our old electric glass top.

! can NEVER EVER have a gas stove here...SO I AM JEALOUS!!!...
And due to my age etc etc etc I will have to live here until I die and keep on cooking on my electric stove inside, but thankfully using lump charcoal cooking outside!
LONG LIVE outdoor grills!!!
Hot enough to WOK cook, nothing lost to gas.

I love my gas for it rapid response, ability to go very low or high, and quiet operation. I can use diffusion plates for even better low temp control.
It amazes me, how many people do not realize how the future works.
The legacy media and the Left attempted to brush off the initial gas stove controversy and outcry from the Right as nothing more than an unsubstantiated, irrational conspiracy theory. The White House even insisted that President Joe Biden does not support a ban on gas stoves after one of his federal consumer safety officials suggested that such a ban was on the table.
But, as we are seeing in so many other instances, Republicans were right all along. President Joe Biden’s Department of Energy is, in fact, pushing an extreme regulation that would effectively eliminate nearly all gas stoves.
The Department of Energy is conducting this gas stove grab through a rule that would impose extreme energy performance standards on residential cooktops. The department’s proposed rule sets requirements for gas cooktops at the maximum technologically feasible or "max-tech" level. Based on the Department of Energy's own analysis, gas cooktops at the max-tech level represent just 4% of current market share and exclude all conventional free-stand ranges.
Any rule that causes 96% of the products available today to be eliminated from the market is an extreme regulation. In fact, it is essentially an outright ban on gas stoves.
Here's a slightly more balanced piece on the topic:

Make of it what you will, but I think the outrage is more... well, hot air... than substance.

Coastal areas in California, good luck in getting a gas range now and or your Gas Fired Furnace replaced, moving forward, many areas new construction are all electric
I am old enough to remember the last time this was done,late 60's early 70s "Medallion Homes" were all electric and the latest and greatest , best for the environment , that craze lasted one build phase
