Probably too heavy in a home then you'll be happy with long term. We did our 
kitchen reno ten plus years ago and choose Dynasty for our natural gas 
stove/cooktop. We had converted to gas about ten years before that for the 
kitchen and deck barbeque and I would never go back to any other heat source 
for cooking (other then smoking). Instant heat and fast control with the 
cooktop and two large gas oven burners and convection as well for baking, 
roasting, etc in the oven.

 

I just replaced both oven burners and ignitors in the last six months and 
the great thing was being able to get parts overnight for an American made 
unit. Easy and quick DIY install wrt parts too.
