Kitchen Aid range - what's the difference between these two models?

11 years ago

I am shopping for a range, KitchenAid specifically. But, I'm confused about the differences between these two models. Both are dual fuel. One is the "commercial" range, the other - just a standard dual fuel. The differences I can immediately see:

Commercial style range: KDRS407VSS: 4 burners, one is 20k to 5k. 4.1 cu ft. capacity. Retail $4600

"Other" range: KSDB900ESS: 5 burners, one is 19k to 5k. 7.1 cu ft capacity. Has a "baking drawer" Retail $2900


I realize retail prices are always discounted, this is just for comparison. I don't "get" what I'm paying for if I purchase commercial. It's $1700 more, yet has 4 vs. 5 burners and is 3 cu. ft. smaller capacity. Is the quality that much better than the "other" range?
