Don't know about the 48", but we recently installed the 36" dual fuel range (6 burner top) and are very happy with it's performance. The user interface for the oven is very straight forward, and the gas burners work great -

Thanks, beers. Love your "name"!

Forget this post. We decided to go with the Wolf. Thanks.

I am thinking about the 48" Kitchenaid, some of the prices are really attractive. Does anyone else have any exprience with it.

Thanks!

My local appliance place brought the KA 48" in when I was considering it due to the cheaper price than others. (I don't live in a big city and I had never seen a 48" range IRL.)

I was very disappointed with it and decided that if I designed my new kitchen around a 48" range, id have to fork up some extra $ for something better. The knobs had a LOT of play, seemed cheap, and felt sloppy. Up close the range as a whole looked cheaper than I had expected. Plus, the smaller oven wasn't as big as some I'd read about. That was very important to me.

If I was still planning the 48", I'd try to cut corners somewhere else to pay more for a better range. HTH.
