The thing that bugs me about her stove (Dacor or Thermador, I'm not sure which) is the lack of a really really low burner that works like I want it to. The "simmer" burner goes off and on, which means annoying clicks as it relights itself. Even then my ginormous pot of chili scorched on the bottom. We ended up buying one of those flame tamer thingies, but when I buy my own dream stove I want a simmer burner that gives constant, low heat.

The Viking is very good on this -- each of the two that I've had came with a very small burner (or two on the 6-burner range..... sniff) that gave good, constant, low heat. For a big heavy pot (your chili, my Mama Fincholi's meat sauce), the big burner is actually very good, because you can set the heat very low and the big burner surface spreads it out nicely.
