That is good looking! I can't imagine ever owning a kitchen big enough for a 48 inch range to make sense. But it does get you a lot of burners and two ovens.

Cool, thanks for sharing. I've never heard of this manufacturer before. Do you know what pricing is supposed to be like?

Haven't seen them. I expect they will be introduced to us at Arch Digest in march. When pricing gets announced I will try and let everyone know. They brought in some hardware samples (handles, knobs, end caps) and it looked to be well built. I am curious as to the reception on it, because it may influence our decision to carry or not!

It is a beautiful range! I like the combination of induction and gas burners on the range top. The panaromic glass oven door is also a nice feature! They have 30 inch and 36 inch ranges on their website as well.

The color version does look good! For those who may be interested in combining induction & gas, Lacanche will also soon offer this on our 44" units and larger.

Joe, I'll look forward to your impressions on the product!

Pretty range. On the riser, is that the oven heat venting forwards, right at you?

As someone who has induction and gas (cooktops, not range), I'm always interested in the combination. You need specs to impress on the induction, however. See selected specs below.

The induction has most of the usual features, and the power looks fine, but it doesn't have count down timers and only lists 9 power levels. Nine is fine if there are half stops, for the true number of power levels of 17. If there are really only 9, plus boost, simmer, etc., then it's pretty bad. That's not enough control, and the power one wants is generally in between, which means a lot of up one/down one throughout the cooking. I'd find that out before buying/carrying.

The gas power looks decent, but confusing, since the simmer is on the big burner. But there's also the induction, so it really doesn't matter unless there's a power outage.

The ovens are gas, I'm sure, because otherwise you'd have to have like 200 amps just for the range. There's only one glide rack, in the larger oven. There is convection, but not self clean (again, the power issue), and the interior is enamel (which is good--easier to clean than stainless). It only goes up to 500° F, so adequate, but not a pizza powerhouse. The griddle looks a little underwhelming, but probably another power compromise. Should be fine for pancakes.

Overall, it looks like a good range, and packs a lot into a compact space. I really want to know about the real number of power settings on the induction, however. Nine is just a no-go. Period. Ten years ago they were doing nine. It wasn't good. Most everybody is doing 17 now, and it's very good.
