A Taste Of Italy: Italian Range Cookers
Italian range cookers are built with passion by some of the top family run businesses, who have passed great knowledge and manufacturing through the generations. Their love for cooking is apparent in each of their products, with well-considered features running throughout the collections.
Here at Rangecookers we work with a number of Italian manufacturers, including Bertazzoni, ILVE, DeLonghi, Steel, Smeg and Fulgor Milano. Built in regions of Italy that are rich in both manufacturing and cooking pedigree, these passionately designed, high quality products combine functional ergonomic design with performance and style to create the range cookers we see today. Available in a range of colours and widths, there are plenty to choose from so here is a closer look at the Italian brands we have to offer...
ILVE have been a globally renowned cooker brand for over 60 years, with each of their range cookers being hand-built by an individual craftsman at their factory near Venice. From the triple-glazed doors and gentle hum of their ovens, you can see the integrity of each component within every range cooker they produce. Producing energy efficient and very good-looking cookers, ILVE have a well-deserved reputation for quality and refinement. They offer an extensive collection of both range cookers and built-in appliances, with high level of detail and functionality shining through both. Having one of the largest selections of range cookers on the market, they offer sizes from 60cm all the way up to 150cm. With a variety of both contemporary and traditional styles, there is an ILVE range cooker to suit every kitchen. The Roma and Milano models are full of character and feature-rich, with ILVE's E3 technology included to give accurate digital control and oven temperatures from 30 to 300°C. The affordable but luxurious Torino offers the best value package for your home, with uncompromising performance and the choice of a single or twin oven design. The ILVE Panoramagic is a refined package, giving precise digital temperature and stylish facia panel with red LED-backlit control knobs.
Bertazzoni are one of the oldest brands in Italy, having run for 130 years. Their range cookers are built through rich Italian heritage and manufacturing, situated in a region of Italy that is home to brands such as Ferrari and Lamborghini. Overseen by six generations of the Bertazzoni family, cooking has been at the forefront of all the high-quality design on each of their products. Functional ergonomic design makes these cookers a standout piece in many homes and precision engineering ensures your appliance functions perfectly, with added stylish design also giving you an elegant but powerful aesthetic. With range cookers available in sizes 60cm to 120cm widths, Bertazzoni's range offers a variety of sizes, colours and finishes to suit every need. The Professional series offers premium Italian quality in the form of solid, functional design and all the most popular Bertazzoni refinements. The Master series brings you all the usual authentic features of a Bertazzoni range cooker but with an affordable price point, with the characteristic temperature gauge and chunky controls making a well-executed machine. The Heritage series takes inspiration from their original wood burning stoves, with the newer models now featuring all the advanced technology and engineering you would see on a Professional model.
DeLonghi is a familiar brand often associated with coffee machines and smaller appliances, but this Italian manufacturer has a great reputation for range cookers. The collection we offer here at Rangecookers is full of character and well-made range cookers that are very appealing. The distinctive Italian styling and well-considered features for such a fair price make their cookers hard to resist. The DeLonghi Vintage collection combines sleek, stylish aesthetic with high build quality to create a reliable range cooker that is great value for money. The DeLonghi Professional series offers budget range cookers but does not compromise on the quality. You can spend a little bit more to give the flexibility of two ovens or an electric hob, but whichever design you choose you will be sure to have a reliable range cooker. Their flexible approach to design enables them to consider and respond to the surrounding market and ensures that their products are still eye-catching and appealing.
High-end, premium Italian design and manufacturing makes up the Fulgor Milano range. Design and power are principles that Fulgor Milano share in all their products, with cooking equipment that brings modern technology to your kitchen to enhance your cooking experience. In their factory near Venice, the Menenghetti family have been putting passion into their contemporary design for over 70 years, making Fulgor Milano a well-respected brand particularly in the USA. Bold and rigorous, these range cookers have all the style and performance you'd expect. The Sofia collection, named in honour of the Italian movie star, was launched in 2015 and we are proud to offer it here at Rangecookers. The design's aluminium facia, branding and touch control panel, along with the chunky controls and sturdy door handles make an impressive cooker.
