New Cooktop Prototypes
DeLonghi showed off 30" and 36" gas cooktop prototypes which were
sharp redirection to American styling and away from the Euro-styles already
available. Slick Sabaf sealed burners with electronic ignition and
reignition, full surface grates, deep-draw main
top. Mostly lovely except for the ergonomic difficulty in identifying
which control goes to which burner. No price or date of availability
provided.

The Unmet Niche
DeLonghi launched the retro size of 24" wide and 40" high double
gas wall ovens to feed the replacement market. Millions of homes with
24" ovens someday needing replacement, but the major manufacturers have
left the segment for larger
ovens. Hence the opportunity. Features gas oven and a 110V second
oven.

Shallow Pro-style-style Ranges
A family of 24" deep stainless steel pro-look ranges to fit any kitchen and
any budget. These little units were designed with ducking and weaving in
mind, as the big brands have gone ever larger and more expensive, these units
feature the performance needed by the folks the big brands left behind.

Assorted Cooktops and Ovens
Though the oven looks fine, these cooktops look fairly European in their sizing.
