    Bosch by a mile. Very reliable. Great features. Good service.

    Do they have comparable features.

    I just got an induction cooktop and important to me were "zones" as I liked that Bosch had flex zone so I could use cookware that wasn't round. Also I liked how the heat was controlled as I didn't have to click through varying levels - Bosch also had a high number of levels although I'm not sure that is critical.

    When I was researching stoves (before I decided to go with a separate wall oven and cooktop, I was interested in these

    True convection

    Sealed heating elements

    Self cleaning

    If size of cavity is important then what is capacity of oven - I don't do anything huge like a turkey, so size wasn't as much of an issue but might be a factor for you.

    Then feed the exact model of each stove into google and add +review and see what turns up although I generally discount online reviews that aren't by an organization testing large quantities or surveying lots of people because unhappy people post more than satisfied ones. However, the reviews are helpful if they discuss specific drawbacks - in terms of my vent (for example), I eliminated vent hoods that were difficult to clean because I couldn't see myself scampering around with a screwdriver to remove the filter and so realized I wanted a hood vent that was easy to remove without tools.

    Bosch is generally a reliable brand - I'm going with Bosch dishwasher, Bosch induction cooktop (Benchmark) and Bosch side opening oven. I had considered a Jennair refrigerator but went with KA which is Jennair's sister because it was literally the same refrigerator for a few hundred dollars less and even the appliance sales person couldn't point out any difference.

    Its just that the controls on on the side and have to bend down to read them. the jenn-air is on top.

    I was between the Bosch and the Samsung chefs collection flex. In the end I decided on the Samsung, as they were rated the same, almost the same price, and the Samsung offered more functionality. I’ve had mine for about a year now and am very happy.

    Between those two, I'd recommend the Bosch. I went with LG because I wanted knobs, but if you don't want knobs, the Bosch is the way to go.

    I would seriously consider both the Frigidaire and Sears Kenmore by Frigidaire both for the lower price points and greater number of burner heat settings as well as very effective self cleaning ovens. Jennair steam clean is not effective at all. Electrolux offers even more features and these all have top controls on the slide in models.
