Sometimes better cookware or, more correctly, cookware that is
intended for the task at hand, will provide better performance. I
might explore this option first, prior to making a commitment to
swapping out your current range. Good luck!


Don't cook much do you? There are times when nothing beats more power.


I have a Heartland Legacy range and the heat output on any of the six
burners can be varied from 450 BTUs (0.13 kW) to 15,500 BTUs (4.54
kW). I've never once found it to be underpowered.

There are millions of electric ranges with burners not even half as
powerful and yet, somehow, life as we know goes on. But, hey, if
someone wants a Garland range and a 2,000 CFM exhaust hood in their
kitchen well, by all means, knock yourself out.

Cheers,
Paul
