So this happened a couple of days ago. I was told it was in stock in a local warehouse and 5 days away in early June. I picked it up Monday and installed it Tuesday.
Hands down the most delayed gratification item EVER, and likely my most indulgent purchase to date. I decided over 15 years ago I wanted a Bluestar, but I didn't want an upgrade worth half of the value of my home. Especially when it was a short term plan.
I didn't know of capital at the time and Bluestar has a heftier price tag unless you forego BTU. They play the game of higher BTU burners on the higher end models where Capital has 25K BTU burners all around, other than the simmer. The ease of cleaning was the real clincher. The hole thing pulls apart in seconds.
There is a learning curve for sure, though, but it's not what I expected. I was going to share it when I installed it and say I don't know what's for dinner, but I bet it will be burnt!
... My 2 hour install took 6 hours, and then I didn't burn a thing. The power is there, but it's controllable. Things cook in half the time.
I did smoke out the house with the wok last night, but that is because the hood fan doesn't extend over it. Might need a deeper one. The tribulations of buying in a pandemic. It was pretty well all that was available at the time.
Anyway! 15 years of wishing and I am one happy cook! A boil test was 25 minutes on the old range top and 9 minutes on this one. Giddy up!
