At the end of the month, I will celebrate 10 years with my wonderful dual-fuel JennAir range. I LOVE having gas burners and an electric oven. The one feature I have under-used is the grill insert for one half of my cooktop. I would just go with the burners, except that because of the gril feature, those two burners go up to a much higher BTU - kind of like a wok burner.
I bought a double oven last year before Thanksgiving and I LOVE it. LG:

I made sure the larger (lower) oven could hold a 24 lb turkey (it can, when you remove one of the racks) and that the upper oven has a good broiler (it does) the cooktop is all one area so easy to clean, and the racks are not ridged so you can easily slide a pan from one burner to the other (there are 5)
Also, it's blue inside and it sings a little song when the oven is hot or the timer goes off, and that makes me happy
Hmm... It's difficult to offer feedback as there are so many questions to ask. The most important, though, is what do you do in the kitchen on a regular basis and for how many people do you do it? Some others: Do you have an outdoor grill, and do you/are you able to use it year round? Are there budgetary restrictions you're working within? Do you know anyone local who has recently gotten a new range so you could see it in its "natural environment," instead of just in the store? Good luck with your search!
