Are you talking about this unit?

That's not induction, it's radiant cooktop.

Yep, that’s why I asked. I don’t see another summit on build.com.

Nor on any other North American vendor.

Look what I found! https://www.worldwidevoltage.com/ae-electrolux-eki6751aox-stove-with-an-oven-and-hob-220-240-volt--50-hz.html?utm_source=googleshopping&utm_medium=cse

Hate to rain on the parade but the ad says the unit is designed to run on 50 Hz circuits, which is Europe and much of the other side of the world from us. The North American spec is 60 Hz. Further down that page, the fine print specifically says: "This appliance is not designed for use in America." :-((

Pity. There's also this Aga, but I want more than a single burner if I'm paying those prices: https://www.designerappliances.com/aga-ahcincrm.html

Here's a Bertazzoni PRO604IMFESXT, 60cm induction range that operates on either 50hz or 60hz, according to the specs on this webpage:

https://universal.bertazzoni.com/products/professional-series/cookers/60-cm-induction-top-electric-oven-8

220/240 V - 50/60 Hz - 43 A

Have you found a North American dealer for it?

Oh here's a Siemens 60cm induction range operating at either 50hz or 60hz:

Hmmm. Looks like Amazon.de is all sold out of all 60cm induktion ranges right now, even the 50hz only models:

@kitchencuttingboard thank you so much for researching for us. i <3 bertazzoni and just learned that all electrical cooking appliances that list 220v/240v actually means 50Hz/60Hz, respectively. :shaking raised fist:

now i can buy an orange range!

Anyone have luck buying/installing the Bertazzoni 220/240 V - 50/60 Hz - 43 A induction range in the US?

Maybe the time has finally arrived? :https://www.wayfair.com/appliances/pdp/zline-kitchen-and-bath-zline-24-28-cu-ft-freestanding-induction-range-zlkn4231.html

Today must be 24” induction day! Great find, HU!!

I wonder if we'll see more as folks can get energy credits for them soon! I have convinced my parents to buy induction when the rebates are available, to replace a gas stove and they would love one at their ski condo, but are limited to 24" Honestly, I could manage at my home with a 24", easily.

Chiming in to say I also found the Zline 24-inch option:

https://zlinekitchen.com/range/24-inch-3-burner-stainless-steel-professional-induction-freestanding-range-raind-24

If anyone buys this can they please report back?

Would love to hear any opinions i am about to buy a Zline and some of the reviews i read are not great tho i expect this may be a more realistic venue

fingers crossed

HU, I would love to hear how your experiences with that are in the future. Do let us know, please.

I love love love my 30" ge induction range in my main kitchen, and can't imagine not having induction in my downstairs granny flat / accessory dwelling unit which only has room for a 24" unit. Yeah, I mean 60cm.

Owner reviews of Zline RAIND-24 24" Induction Range

• Home Depot (but read carefully. some reviews are of other sizes or even other products!)
• Amazon

Blomberg just released one (summer 2023)!!! the wait is over!

BIRC24102SS

hallelujah!

Would love to hear reviews if anyone has bought one. The reviews online are usually for a different model (which is useless).

The Blomberg BIRC24102SS and BIRU24102SS appear to be identical.

The only difference I see is that the BIRC model seems to comply with Canadian requirement? of an included 4-prong NEMA power supply cord. If that's a requirement. I only know that here in the US our ranges are sold without the pigtail and you have to buy the 4 prong pigtail for the proper amperage / wire gage. Oddly, they sell both 3 prong and also 4 prong pigtails in the stores here and 3 wire cords for 220 volt appliances have never been code compliant while I've been alive. And I'm old.

So, I think the BIRU is for the US and BIRC model is for Canada. Oh wait, I see what they did there.

Oh, and I think the I in BIRC or BIRU stands for Induction / Induktion (sp?). and the E in BERU stands for Electric / Elektrisch. (That must makes it way easier to special order the correct model.)

I should just mention quickly, um, when you pickup or take delivery on Beko / Bloomberg appliances you should absolutely open the box and inspect how much appliance damage is present before signing / accepting. They ask for signature first, but don't fall for it. Tell them you will sign when you confirm the appliances are not damaged. My boxes were mint / no damage at all, but the appliances inside were totally and obviously destroyed. I don't know what that was about, or why I felt I needed to do things that way, but I avoided major drama. Like 3 or 4 times. Same thing each time except the last time of course.

@kitchencuttingboard: "I only know that here in the US our ranges are sold without the pigtail and you have to buy the 4 prong pigtail for the proper amperage / wire gage. Oddly, they sell both 3 prong and also 4 prong pigtails in the stores here..."

Most US ranges can be fitted with a 3-prong cable. I couldn't find a user manual for the Blomberg BIRU24102SS induction range but the similar BERU24202SS electric range can be fitted with a 3-prong cable as shown in its user manual.

"and 3 wire cords for 220 volt appliances have never been code compliant while I've been alive. And I'm old."

The code change was made in 1996. I've never considered 27 to be old.

Oh that makes sense. I'm probably misremembering.

The Bloomberg model looks to finally be available https://www.ajmadison.com/cgi-bin/ajmadison/BIRU24102SS.html

The Bloomberg model looks to finally be available https://www.ajmadison.com/cgi-bin/ajmadison/BIRU24102SS.html Anyone have advice on how to get a better price on one of these?

Is AJ Madison a reliable vendor? Reviews don't look good.

Buying with a credit card will will protect you from most problems but read the return policy before buying. build.com also sells it (+$200 but it may price match) and you may be able to find a local dealer from the Blomberg website.

Not available in California :(

@lynette545: "Not available in California :("

Yeah, build.com says

"This Product Does Not Ship to California

"It is not approved by the California Energy Commission (CEC) for sale in California."

I'm kind of bewildered there's not more demand or buzz for a 24 inch induction range. How many people live in small-footprint apartments in cities? I have two rental units I'm trying to upgrade from gas and have been waiting for the past two years, really surprised there are not more offerings by now.

HU-802078485: "I'm kind of bewildered there's not more demand or buzz for a 24 inch induction range."

I'm not. They look cheesy and most US kitchens are large enough to accommodate a 30" range. The availability of 84* 21-24" electric cooktops indicates that people prefer a different solution: an electric cooktop in a cabinet with a separate oven.

Looks like a new model coming out soon:

https://www.smeg.com/us/products/SPR24UIMX

The Smeg Professional Series SPR24UIMX 24" Induction range is now in stock at AJ Madison for $3,499 plus $50 for a cord kit (unclear if you can use a generic cord -- always use 4 prong cords).

..

Of course you always have the option of getting a carpenter out and doing a 24" or 30" induction cooktop plus a 24" wall oven.

Hello spf100. I see you've bought this range and left a review on the AJ Maddison website. Sounds like you're not that impressed with the cooktop? Anything else you'd like to add? We're in a similar situation where we'd like to replace an aging 24" electric range but have no interest in extensive kitchen modifications.

For anyone still following this thread, there seems to another option, from Summit Appliance.

https://www.summitappliance.com/catalog/model/TEM665BW

I've only seen one review so far (3 stars) that talks about the cooktop not working, so not hugely encouraging.

Anyone hear anything on these (or search Ikea Orminge induction range 24):

https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/oerminge-range-with-induction-cooktop-stainless-steel-00591093/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=surfaces&utm_campaign=shopping_feed&utm_content=free_google_shopping_clicks_Home_Appliances&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=10678612310&gbraid=0AAAAAD27g7y9hMaCEbj4pcoBIn5JUA_l2&gclid=Cj0KCQjwxo_CBhDbARIsADWpDH7eAQV4syUVAsWIGHH3Uj0faohwZh4s1rMsceV4hswv8PG3iz8oKJkaAodGEALw_wcB

That IKEA Orminge is a bargain. It's the Blomberg BIRU24102SS at a substantially lower price.

(When copying an IKEA URL, just copy the text to the left of the "?").

The reviews aren't great though.

There's a review on reddit: https://old.reddit.com/r/Appliances/comments/1lpn04s/ikea_orminge_iinduction_review_24_3_burner/

We're picking one up on Saturday. The sensible price and Ikea's 5 year warranty pushed it over the line for us.

Hey Kimberly,

I’ve done some searching too, and it’s definitely a bit of a niche market when it comes to 24-inch induction ranges. From what I’ve found, manufacturers like Frigidaire and Summit do have compact induction cooktops, but for a full 24-inch slide-in range, options are quite limited. It seems like 30-inch models dominate the market in that range. You might have more luck looking at 24-inch cooktops and pairing them with a separate wall oven if you need the full range setup.

By the way, I came across an interesting comparison recently about speed benchmarks — I didn’t think it would relate, but it’s fun to see how things like how fast does the shinkasen go might parallel how quickly technology adapts to consumer needs, just like these smaller appliances.

Hope that gives you a bit of direction!

I'm wondering if Barry Y has any feedback on the Ikea Orminge. Also, anyone up to date on the tax rebates/credits and what program is still available and what program is ending? I checked at Rewiring America and home electrification sites, but they really have not updated anything since last year.

So we've had the Orminge for about a month, and it's fine! About what I would expect from a range at this price point. Some things to maybe bear in mind.

IKEA don't necessarily do the same home delivery/old appliance removal thing that regular appliance stores do, so figure out if you can handle that side of things yourself. We picked it up ourselves and put it in the back of our SUV, but it is very heavy! If I was to do it again, I would probably have paid the $39 for home delivery instead. You're *supposed* to keep it upright for transportation.

The manual appears to be a reformatted version of the Blomberg manual which is an atrocious translation from... I don't know what language. Far worse than I would expect from an automatic translation, so I'm guessing someone with poor English manually translated it. Still, you can pretty much figure out what's going on.

The cooktop works well; like most of these ranges it's controlled by touch-sensitive controls on the cooktop itself. So lots of fingerprints. We seem to get slightly better performance from stainless steel and cast iron pans; the induction-compatible aluminum pans we have seem to need a higher heat setting than I'd expect.

The oven is fine too. Although I think one of the stickers on the temperature control knob was placed a bit off, which given that it's an analog control, is a bit poor. Could probably get it replaced, but we'll probably just live with it.

So, it's nothing spectacular but finally something at a reasonable price! Certainly here in Canada it's the only option for anyone not wanting to pay a premium.
