I'd be completely sold on SKS if they had more induction burners than gas on the cooktop - and I can do without the sous vide given there are a lot of options for that already (including similar results using a combi steam oven). Ideally, I'd want a gas wok burner and the rest induction; could be sold on a infrared grill though for air quality probably better to grill outside. Their 48" French door refrigerator is super nice - I love the attention to detail. Looking forward to seeing how their line up evolves.
Sub Z and Miele promote 20+ year longevity on their appliances. Fran recently commented that we should expect most appliances to break down within 7-10 years. Do you guys believe that brands like SKS and Thermador are closer to Sub Z and Miele in quality or closer to the 7-10 year lifespan? I know appliances are fickle but I’m asking big picture. Thanks!
I'm in the market for a 36" all gas range and I've narrowed down my choices to SKS, Thermador and Wolf. This video is very helpful but I still cannot decide! SKS has a better griddle and oven but Thermador seems like a safer choice from a service/reliability standpoint. Wolf BTU output isn't as strong and only has a single convection oven but the service is hard to beat. Help! I'm going crazy reading reviews trying to decide.
I love that SKS has the steam oven. I'm not interested in the sous vide. I'd like all induction or 4-6 induction 2 gas, etc. If they sold it with "modules," you could pick, it would be a winner. Sous Vide is a nice novelty thing to try, but I'd never pay for it in a range. Also, we want color choices, not just stainless. I did call SKS, and they acted like the Sous Vide was the most requested option out there. They are wrong.
