In case anybody cares or would benefit from my experience... wound up getting the Blue Star 6-burner from Costco, a Bosch dishwasher, a Ventahood hood and a Viking fridge (this kind of by accident - were looking at Miele at Trail and noticed a marked down Viking - somebody returned it because the door opened to the right, instead of left; saved $3k). Really happy with everything so far. The gas oven takes some getting used to, but cooks so much more evenly than electric convection. The dishwasher is fantastically quiet (and good). Really happy with everything. In particular, want to thank Ducay for putting me on to Blue Star.
