I can't speak to the high end stoves, but I've had off and on trouble with my GE stoves, so I would never buy GE again.

For what it is worth, I don't ever want to cook on anything other than gas. Gas with cast iron or carbon steel pans is the best. It heats fast, adjusts fast, and cooks when there is no electricity. If you get to pick what you want, I'd definitely go gas.
