Two years ago when our gas range was getting senile, I started looking for replacement. Blue star was considered, but when the price went up to $2300 I did some hum and hah. I was also concerned with moving a 300 pound stove. Ended up buying a Samsung with sealed burners. Very happy with it so far and it cost about half of a Bluestar.
Not to knock a Bluestar but do we really need a commercial grade stove for home use?
I cook enough to appreciate a good stove but I rather spend my saving on a very nice camera. )

thanks for your input. how do you like the sealed burner? will it heat the pot evenly or like some review says, the edge of the pot will get very hot but middle of it not hot enough?
it said the open burner is better on evenly heat up the pot.

And it also depends on the material/size/shape of your pot/wok....

我用的open／sealed不是一样的BTU，所以不好说哪个一定好。只能说高BTU的我喜欢

在此提醒，电炉换高BTU气炉要考虑油烟机需要extra clearence，否则违背code，后果严重。

To a certain extent, yes but it is only noticeable when it is set on high when the flame spreads out more.
