Mine is 15 years old and I bought it on EBay.  They damaged it in shipping
so it was basically free.  It doesn't use any more gas than the Viking
range I used before.  You learn to cook everything in the insulated ovens
instead of on top of the stove.  Mine stays on all year in South Carolina
so it's really not putting much heat out.  The four ovens stay at 450, 350,
250 and 150 degrees and are ready to cook any time.  Water boils on the hob
in less time than it takes in the microwave.
