I wanna do a minor kitchen remodel (mostly just shuffling appliances and cabinets) which seemed like a good opportunity to finally upgrade to induction.

Ideally I’m looking for a slide-in range, but I’m open to doing cooktop and oven separately given a reasonable way to make that fit in the footprint of a slide-in.

Obviously normal BIFL stuff. I don’t care about or want Smart Connectivity of any kind; knobs are great, the fewer touchpads the better, screens are off-putting; the fewer electronic components, the better; I don’t care about aesthetics at all, I like the simple, easy to clean commercial style.

Bridge elements would be nice, but not that important. Convection is preferred, a split oven would be nice, I don’t really need the storage drawer at the bottom.

Edit: I wound up going with this model from LG. Looked like the best option in my price range.

    I got one with the touchpads on the front of the unit. It’s as much fun as you can guess. Cant even adjust the burners when there is liquid on it (all the time when cooking). The smart features have never worked. I was hoping to be able to turn on preheat while in the living room but no go. It’s a $2500 GE model too. So I hope you can find one with knobs and works well in your price range. They really are worth it with the right pans, heats up much faster than gas.
