-try Gardenweb for reviews and google or bing "American Range reviews". I found several places with reviews for AR and NXR, most for both were positive with the AR a bit better than the NXR which is compiled in China with parts from elsewhere, German valves I believe. NXR is $2000 for a 36" stainless pro look range. Could not find either to look at near me, but the regional managers from AR were very nice, friendly and answered my emails promptly. Bought Wolf, but likely would have gone with AR if I could have touched one first. They run around $3000 for a 36".

I bought an American Range and it has never worked correctly, essentially a lemon. Customer service ignored the fact that the igniters blew out 3 times during a 2 year warranty period. Post warranty service was terrible. I would not ever buy one of their poor quality products again or recommend them.
