I appreciate the caution, Dr. Teeth. Using a product in an unapproved manner is a sure ticket to finding one's insurance coverage voided. It does seem that the RCS is otherwise identical to the RNB, so it's not inherently unsafe. But yeah, CentralMA should weigh the merits of $800 saved now vs. a claim inspector discovering the range wasn't to manufacturer's spec. 

 

SLB, from sifting through many reviews and forum posts, I gather that there've been several iterations of the oven door design in the last decade: different hinges, a bigger window, and insulation (or something) to keep the surface much cooler. And recently they've disabled the convection fan until the oven is at temp. Seems that broiler pans are only for RNB and Platinum units.

 

Those of you with a too-high BlueStar simmer, did you adjust the flame height and find that it just couldn't go low enough?

Adjusting helps. I just redid it and it's much better. The original adjustment was done with a dodgy regulator on the propane tank...kept going out on low. Didnt think to redo it with the new regulator. Thanks for the thought!
