As with most things you get what you pay for. Viking and Wolf are top notch but you pay for it.

If your budget is in that range (no pun intended) consider Bluestar. My sister has one and she says it's on par with Wolf and Viking but priced much better because it doesn't carry the big name.
I don't think Blue star has sealed burners

I don't know a thing about stoves, but Ray's comment, above, maybe
the best description of CR I've ever read!

I don't think CR is the end all or be all, however you would think they would be able to tell if a gas burner lights easy or not.

No, they don't. That's not necessarily a bad thing depending on who you ask. Sealed burners can have a cold spot in the middle and you can't disassemble them to clean.

Open burners have better performance and are easier to dissasemble and maintain. You will never find a sealed burner range in a professional kitchen. Sealed burners were developed for the home to make it easier to wipe up spills.
