So so pretty! I’ll post as soon as it’s installed. Due date is March so fingers crossed there aren’t any delays.

Lucky, that’s wonderful!

Thank you Bjorn!!. edited:...I should have said thank you Bjorn and Teresa...Bjorn asked me for a pic a few months ago on another Hallman thread, but my backsplash wasn't installed....

Okay random question but about to order. My house does not have gas, it's all electric. Even my current range is hard wired into the wall (from the 80's) and I heard that's how Hallman is too which is to my benefit. However, with only having electric, the Dual Fuel range says it's gas burners and electric oven. Is there any way to have the burners on electric heat as well?

Their website is up today...it's been difficult to find it up and working...but the "refine your results" just keeps spinning... The power option lists 2 under "electric", but I can't make it actually pull it up. I would call them in TX.

I just ordered a 30 inch Ilve Nostalgie duel fuel. Can anyone tell me whey they chose Hallman over Ilve or vice versa? I chose Ilve because I have had good luck getting ahold of people in their corporate office, so was hoping if I have issues, this will make it easier. I am still not sure I picked the right one, or if it matters. I ordered it from Wayfair and it is supposedly coming end of Feb/March. It also has a 240 plug or can be hardwired (not sure if the Hallman does or not)., We will see!

Does anyone know what kind of range this is and how I can get that flat cooktop on it?

Looks like an Ilve with a French top https://www.executiveappliance.com/Ilve-48-DualFuel-Range-French-Top-p/um120sdmpby.htm

I've been looking at the Hallman stove for several months now, and now I'm afraid to buy it! After reading the complaints, it's hard to to commit to purchasing it. This stove is exactly what I'm looking for. The LaCanche is about twice the price- anyone have a LaCanche?

I have been using my Hallman for 8 months without any issues. It’s a dual fuel - converted to propane. 🤷‍♀️

HU-402381536, the only issue I have had was the long delivery time. My Hallman has worked great, it looks amazing, and we use it every day.
The LaCanche is more than twice as expensive, and the lead time is eight months. Go with the Hallman.

Zero problems with mine, short delivery time (once scheduled) because they had 10 of my ranges at their warehouse at the time... Hallman was actually kind enough to hold mine for 7 months because I wasn't ready for it. Could not be happier! I cook every day, I used to make custom cakes...this range delivers.

Hello Ilve owners and aspiring Ilve owners! We purchased our 30" dual-fuel Majestic oven just over one year ago. It is British racing green with brass trim, and it looks custom made for our design scheme, which is wonderful. Our major issue with the oven is that its internal fan which cools the electronics as necessary is very noisy. In the beginning, it didn't go on unless we were using the oven at a relatively high temperature, but now it goes on every time we use the oven. The fan stays on as the oven cools down as well, and recently, it cycles on and off multiple times for quite awhile during the cooling off period. Has anyone else experienced this?

@jennifernelson24 Hi Jennifer. I ordered the Hallman. They're made in the same factory and I believe them to be the same thing, just different names really. The Hallman is a US company and so far they've been very quick with responding to emails with questions and even pictures of ones in their warehouse when I wanted to see the actual colors. Mine is supposed to arrive around March 10th, which is perfect since my house is supposed to be done at the end of February. Yes, the Hallman also requires the electrical hookup like the one you ordered. Good luck with yours. I'm very excited to receive mine.

If they are the same range than the Better Business Bureau complaints would be the same. They are not. There are many more complaints about Hallman than Ilve. I wish I would have checked the Better Business Bureau before purchasing.

Hi Jeanne. What are the issues that you're having with your Hallman? Has the company been receptive to helping you?

@413realty I think that is a Lacanche range, based upon the bar/handle shape. It's my dream range just not my dream price...sigh.

Jxamis: It's not a Lacanche. They don't have windows on their ranges. I used to have one and lost it in the divorce. Now, I'm looking for something with a window. It was an amazing range but it does not help, not being able to peek at your souffle when their rising... The link was correct, it is an Ilve

I have a white and with stainless and brass handles Hallman - I LOVE it! They told me 16 weeks for shipping - I received in 15 weeks! They delivered on time and totally worth the wait! All of instruction booklets and paper work read “live” the stainless spatula they sent is also stamped “live”
Would like to know what the difference may be! I have had for 18 months and absolutely Love everything about it!

I am looking at the Hallman and Ilve 40 inch ranges - does anyone have a 40 inch and if so, how do the 17 and 14 inch ovens work for you. We are in the process of finalizing our plans and do not want to make a decision I will regret. We can only do a 36 or 40 inch and I was hoping to forego a cooktop and wall oven to save on counter space and this seems like a good option.

@nawlins, as long as you buy knowing that you are not getting a regular size oven, I would do it! The range itself is wonderful! I feed a large family...those ovens would not have enough space for me. The company has been very good about answering any questions and replying quickly. My Hallman range is an absolute JOY!

Answering Inna question, The photo you show is from Go Go Gourmet, she said that the cast iron griddle you see is called a Coup de Feu and she said she loves using it. Hope that helps

Nawlins, just got my 40 “ iLVE. Like you, I had the same problem. I was looking to replace my Kenmore 40 “ duel fuel for years, but in late October the glass top shattered and expidited the process. Ordered my majestic duel fuel from a place In Sacramento near where my son lives. Saved at least 1000 dollars from Wayfair. I considered a Hallman, but from all the research I did, they are not the same as an iLVE. If something is half the price, there’s usually a reason. Had to buy new cookie sheets because of the oven size. Had 3 beautiful baking pans that wont fit, but I knew that going in.

.

Jbarr85, Ilve Majestic is NOT the same as Hallman, but Ilve Nostalgie is.

Ok. I knew you could get Hallmans thru Home Depot, but not much else

@Jacqueline Allard What color are your cabinets? it looks great with the white stove

Adrienne m the color is decorators white by Benjamin Moore

Hi all,

I was reading that it is impossible to simmer on a Hallman range, as the burners are too hot, and that the metal knobs heat up and can burn you after you've been baking for 10 minutes. These are my two biggest concerns. Have any Hallman owners experienced these issues?

Samantha, neither thing has been true in my case, and we have had the 48” range for more than a year and a half. Even on the powerful pot-boiling burner, you can turn it down to simmer.

My only complaint about that one is it takes 15-20 seconds to start it. All the others jump right on.

I hope that helps.

@samanthafw314 I have been using my 48" Hallman every single day for 15ish months now. I've never had a knob get even warm... and I bake pizzas at 500F (on a stone) sometimes. The simmer burner is amazing! There is only 1 option for a very low simmer, it's the inner ring of the power (double ring) burner. I use it for rice all the time. There is also another double ring burner but it cannot be turned down to just the inner ring....it works great as a wok burner. I absolutely LOVE my range.

@lucky998877 @Bjorn Bennett Thank you both so much for the insights! Feeling much more confident in this purchase now!

@lucky998877@Bjorn Bennett Hi there, if you all have 36 in Hallman stoves, may I ask what range hoods or inserts you are using?

We both have a 48". My hood is a 48" 1200 cfm Zephyr stainless chimney...I love it!

i thought the 48 would be huge but it’s not - i have Best hood insert with custom wood hood over it for a 36”- It really is the ”best” - no smells in my house from cooking!

Hello! something strange haooened to me and i wanted to see if anyone had insight. I had worked with an Ilve consultant (out of New Jersey) at the begininng of the year to quote out an Ilve Nostalgie 48inch range. I chose Ilve over Hallman mostly because I had heard bad things about Hallman’s customer service. Well personal stuff came up and we had to post-pone our kitchen renovation to 2022, when i went to contact the Ilve rep to finally complete my order I received an OOO/maternity leave email bounce back. Not a big deal (congrats to her!) but the sales phone number her OOO email provided was answered by someone who answered as ”Hallman.” Are they now the same company? Also the price went up $2,000 from January.. crazy!

Can you guys share what settings you use to cook meals! im having a hard time foguring it out,🤣🤣

@Sophie Cole, I have had the BEST customer service from Hallman! I originally bought straight through them, but wasn't ready for the range. They held it in their warehouse for 6 months! Delivery was right on time. I needed the range calibrated, and they provided a tech via phone to walk the repair guy through the needed steps of manual calibration. I ordered an extra small oven rack, that was shipped right away. Karin used to be my contact a while back, now it's Bailee. Both were not only great at addressing my concerns, but also such nice people!

@413realty, there is a Hallman/Ilve group in facebook that has lots of info regarding how to use these ovens.

@jbarr85 where did you buy your range in Sacramento? i want to order one!

Capitol Wholesale. My son lives in that area and happened to stumble upon them by accident. He was amazed when he went in there. I did everything with them by phone or email ( I live in Upper Michigan) and they were very helpful and professional. They ordered it , received it, and shipped it, and all went off without a hitch. It literally traveled halfway around the world and arrived in perfect condition.Feel free to ask any other questions. Best of luck

@lucky998877 I have a Hallman 48 inch on hold. I cannot vent out of my house. I have to have a ventless, recirculating hood. Do you know anyone that has a 48 inch dual fuel with a ventless hood? I am looking at a Zephyr AK9546AS. Thanks for any help/advice you can give. I only have 72 hours to make my decision.

@Kenzie Cheek sorry, I don't about the ventless hoods...and I would probably not do a 48" range unless I was able to do a really good vent. Is there really no way?

@Kenzie Cheek

Don't recall seeing much of anything about the ventless Zephyr but, if you haven't already done so, you might check out the Vent-a-Hood ARS system which has a 48-inch model. Those are expensive but there has been a long running and mostly favorable thread here on ARS hoods which, if you haven't already found it, can be found here: https://www.houzz.com/discussions/2347276/vent-a-hood-ductless-ars-range-hood-update 

Considering the Hallman 36"range and can't decide between a gas or electric oven? Has anyone done a custom color? ILVE does it for an additional $500, and not sure what the Hallman cost.

For those interested in a French Cooktop ILVE Range. The French top is not a griddle explained here.

For those with Hallman is it easy to see the temp on the knobs? i know ilve has darker font and you can easily ser it on yhr gold knobs but the hallman doesnt look lile you can. my MIL just got a very expensive Zline and can not see the temps and makes it hard ti cook i have crappy eyes so dont want to have thr same issue… photo below from hallmans site looks hard ti navigate … anyone with isight please let me know.… 🫶🏻

Just ordered a black 36” Hallman with brass knobs on 3/16/24, but not delivered as yet. Was going to order Ilve, but they only have dual fuel and I wanted natural gas. On sale at $2500 with no tax.

I have 40 inch Nostalgic ILVE dual fuel that I love. I received it about 7 months ago. I see that Hallman Classico has the same brass oven handrails as the ILVE. I wanted to purchase one to use as a dish towel bar under my sink. Now I know where I can purchase one from Hallman. I also wanted a matching dishwasher . Hallman will work for that , also.

I’m considering ordering a Hallman 48” dual fuel. Is the grey blue the same color as Ilve grey blue? I need to coordinate paint color for cabinets.

Or does an knknow the Sherwin Williams number for that color? im considering navy blue cabinets.
