I did have to notch the top drawer to clear the new fitting location, because the Dickinson LP inlet is on the bottom. Just used some MDF, a few Brads and some glue. The drawer is still full depth on...

Well, we've now cooked on the Dickinson Marine cook top several times. All I can say is wow. The BTU output difference is pretty dramatic. Wife pan seared some steaks last night (too windy and nasty...

I didn't measure it when I removed the old cook top and installed the Dickinson, but it looks like 1/2 inch.

These things are a matter of taste of course, but if you're thinking of spending $500...

Hadn't seen that one, but it looks similar to a SMEV cooktop. I note that the BTU output is lower than the Springfield, and it has 3 burners instead of two. We don't need the 3 burners. But, there is...

That's precisely the point. Oliver installs a camera they provide as a factory option -- it's not custom. Therefore, Oliver is on the hook for installing it a certain way.

Me too. I think the biggest benefit is the useable counterspace. We often cook outside, or the meal doesn't involve cooking, so the counterspace is gonna be quite handy.

They're pricey. I'd seen it in Chris R's custom 5.0TA photos and just thought it was the nicest looking one out there.
