I am gutting an old townhouse and creating a new kitchen. The kitchen is modest size 16 feet wide by 9 feet deep. I will probably put lazy susan corner cabinets which require 3 feet on each side. The center would then allow for a 36" cooktop with a potential 30 inch oven under neath (or storage). I will install a range hood for grilling, and I'm curious whether anyone has experience with comparing a 6-burner with a 4-burner with a grill. I think that it might be difficult to (a) clean the grill portion, and (b) to get could heat disbursement over the grates. Would it be better to get a grill that spans two burners and then clean it separately in the sink?
Also, I'm wonder whether a 5-burner setup would be better with the large wok-syle burner in the center (for also boiling pasta water). I'm thinking that a small induction unit would be great for sauces, and then the 5 burners would be perfect.

Are you installing two lazysuzans "stacked" (one under the the kitchen counter and one above the kitchen counterspace to the ceiling?
I have this design. The bottom two levels hold my portable electric kitchen appliances and the paper towel stand. The top three tier is all spices and recipe box holder, etc.

That's not exactly true. Maybe the entire lazy suzan cabinet is 36 inches across - corner to corner, but it's a CORNER cabinet not a regular cabinet. Consider the "pie cut" style It looks like a regular corner when closed, but the lazy suzan table pops out for easy access when rotated. --

Any thoughts on this?
I have the 5 burner version of the Jenn-Aire cook top and the only drawback I ran into is that I cannot span two burners effectively with a grill or griddle.
That being said, I love the cook top! It has the large 15,000 btu burner in the center and it works really well. If you have very large pots or pans, you need to plan your cooking as they will bump into each other's space if using too many large pans.
