Italian pro-style ranges provide high-style to any kitchen. But, in a jam-packed, crowded marketplace filled with manufactures across the globe claiming the best in Italian craftsmanship, understanding the difference between a brands fit, finish and performance, is critical. Simply put, some brands merely look the part, but have little to no functionality under the cooktop.
Check out which features truly make for a superior Italian range.
Flexible, High Efficiency Burners
Whether simmering your grandmother’s famous marinara/gravy; searing your favorite cut of meat; or wok-ing out with a sizzling stir-fry, the average cook needs flexibility and powerful burners that accommodate diverse cooking. SUPERIORE by Tecnogas engineered its burners to expertly cook what your heart desires, thanks to two 18,000 BTU power burners (one with simmer), one 11,000 BTU large burner, two 6,500 BTU medium burners and one 3,600 BTU small burner. Whatever you can dream up, there’s a heating option for that!
Large Oven
Here, size really does matter. The need for a high capacity oven is crucial for today’s home chef. SUPERIORE’s 36” NEXT and DECO models boast a full 6.7 cu. ft. of oven space. Even its petite 24” NEXT range, suitably sized for urban dwellers, has an oven capacity that rivals 30” competitors. With additional features including four (4) convection fans, that guarantee even cooking with up to six (6) simultaneous levels that prevent flavor crossover, this oven defines performance.
Usability/Safety
Some Italian-style ranges claim soft close doors, cool-touch front or easy cleaning as amenities. SUPERIORE is the one range that sets all these features as the standard. The bar is set high; for example, its “Cool Flow System” generates a flow of cold air rendering the knobs, handle and exterior surfaces, cool to the touch. Add soft close doors that also protects little fingers, and you have a totally kid-proof unit.
Cleaning is also a snap; the internal surface is fully flush, without screws or gaps, for intuitive removal and easy cleaning of glass front.
Craftsmanship
SUPERIORE is the only Italian range hand-crafted in Italy that is designed and manufactured for the American consumer. With oven space engineered to cook an entire Thanksgiving dinner, SUPERIORE understands how Americans cook, consume and prefer versatility.
And we can’t forget about the iconic, decorative details. The colors, knobs and handles exude style and flair, creating a distinctive focal point in any kitchen. The NEXT series range embodies a modern style, with sleek lines and commercial-grade stainless steel, while the DECO series is heavily influenced by bold geometric forms and bright colors.
No matter how you cut it, SUPERIORE is the superior choice for high-end Italian ranges.
