Commercial Cookware Catalogs

Q: I am a catalog junkie, especially motorcycle things and cookware. I would like to get some commercial cookware catalogs (I intend to place orders, in addition to just looking through them and drooling over the $2000 stoves). If you have any information re commercial cookware distributors, I would be grateful if you could take a sec and email me the phone number/address so I may obtain a catalog. If there is interest, I will summarize and post the results.

A: I just spent a few month looking for a stove. Commercial stoves for $2000 can not be installed in a home. Comparable proffessional stoves (commercial for home) cost well over that. Viking, Garland, Thermador, Dynasty, Wolf, 5-Star range in list price from about $4000 for 36 inch model to $10,000 for properly equipped 48 inch. If I would find one for 2000 I'd buy it on the spot! However, the spending does not end there - you need a $1500 hood and blower to use this type of stove, since each burner produces 15,000 btu vs 7,000 btu for a regular stove (and there are 8 burners). One of these days I will summarize and post my research on proffessional stoves - features, construction, ease of cleaning, options, etc.
