Gabe (who currently now resides at the Rainbow Bridge and was my daughter's kitty who eventually was re-homed to another sasvermont) was a mitted Ragdoll and, although beautiful as he could be, he had some temperament flaws. I won't go into it all here but there are lots of Gabe posts, and if you would like you may make a search. Even though he was at times very "testy" I was always in awe of his gorgeous blue eyes and just all around handsomeness (is that a word?) I would encourage you to choose your kitten based on personality though.
