Professional style 36 inch gas range or Bosch appliances?

I'm in the middle of major kitchen remodel and trying to decide the best use of our budget in terms of appliances. I love the look of 36 inch professional style gas ranges, but can't afford one of the nicer ones (Wolf etc.) so I'm considering going with a lower end 36 inch Bertazzoni or Ancona range, which both have very mixed reviews. Along with that I'd try to find a built in fridge that was either a floor model or slightly used.

Alternatively, I'm considering a whole set of Bosch appliances, which consists of a 30 inch slide in gas range and a standard counter depth fridge. These appliances are all highly rated and the price is far more reasonable.

I'm really torn because I really love the look of professional style appliances and the kitchen is part of an open concept living area so aesthetics are particularly important. I also know I might be spending more for what might be a lower quality product. At the same time, I'm definitely thinking of resale and I imagine most buyers will be more impressed with the professional style appliances.

As you can see, I'm kind of stuck here and would any input.
