Personally I think gas burners, six of them, and double ovens, with a really effective hood, is what to aim for. Electric cooktops are awful and the flat glass ones are a pain to clean because they show everything. A really high BTU burner for woking would be really nice. Consumer Reports has reliability data on ranges.
Do not put a commerical range in a home. It creates too much heat and you run the risk of burning the cabinets around the unit. How are you going to vent all that heat? Burn the house down.
