TLDR: In UK trying to pick a new 6 ring gas cooktop/burner/ hob/rangetop but can't because they're not available in the UK or they're from shit brands.
I've been looking at gas cooktops now for a week, and every time I find one that looks good and go to find out the experience people have had with the brands they're all constantly complaining.
-
Wolf hobs are terrible to clean hard to repair and have a terrible mid range precision
-
Viking and BlueStar aren't available in the UK
-
Smeg products are made to look good but don't work well and their 6 hob burner seems completely underpowered
-
Neff, Bosch, Siemens, Miele don't sell 6 rings in the UK
So then what the fuck do I buy, do I go down the custom built route? All I want is a high powered 6 ring burner, I didn't realise the market was so completely oversaturated with shit options and the high end was all completely overpriced garbage designed to be sold to milionaires who don't cook for themselves anyway.
Any advice or contradictory information would be appreciated.

custom built instead of just having it shipped overseas? It's not ideal but I'm assuming you can have these products shipped to you regardless of where they are from.
