both cooktops have powerful sealed double stacked burners the surface of the hestin is brushed steel
which looks great but may be more difficult to clean wolf has a ceramic enameled cooktop which
may not look as nice but is super easy to clean because it's completely non-porous
heston circuit flame power burner in the case of this 36 inch range is right in the middle
it's 30 000 btu making it one of the most powerful burners on the consumer market today this allows
you to boil quicker and sear easier the lowest burner goes all the way down to 500 btu that's
low enough to clarify butter and melt chocolate not just that but you can hold the dish easier
without scorching or burning wolf's double stacked power burner puts out up to 20 000 btus its lowest
output burner goes up to 9200 btu but it's still dual stacked allowing you to bring it quite low
with wolf you can add on an infrared grill or griddle even a french top with a 60 inch range
heston's convection system is unique it uses a fan
just like most brands but it also cycles through different heat sources throughout
the oven to produce a more even heat wolf's dual fuel ranges have vertacross two blowers
that circulate a vertical column of air for more even heat than a traditional fan system
the heston ranges have chunky brightly backlit control knobs that make it easy to tell which
burners are on there's also a small black and white touchscreen on the oven door handle
this display integrates well into the design and will keep from overheating like some displays on
the control panel itself wolf has the signature red knobs with the option of black and silver
as well they recently added a robust touch screen system with wolf gourmet guided cooking
the heston is available in 12 different colors
woolf comes in stainless only but you can get different colored control knobs
a heston range is great if you're looking for power cooking like searing or wok cooking you
get a great range of temperatures because of the surcu flame burner if you do a lot of
lower simmer cooking you have the lower btu burners there as well
if you need more burners you can get up to six on a 36 inch wolf verse 5 on the heston but you don't
get the extra large burner for pots that might not fit on traditional size burners the wolf dual
fuel gives you a built-in guided cooking system whereas the heston just has a small touch screen
