The stove is the heart of every kitchen, where meals are cooked, dinners are made and flavors are created. Pretty much every home chef dreams of a high-performing range which provides superior performance in its cooktop and oven. FORNO has developed a reputation for high-end appliances and offers stand-out kitchen ranges, which level up food prep and give any kitchen that professional look.
Choose the Line of Ranges That’s Right for You
FORNO actually offers two lines to choose from - the Galiano, their affordable line, and the Capriasca, a premium line. Both lines come in various sizes, including 36", 48", and 60", and are available in dual fuel (gas cooktop with an electric oven) or all gas (gas cooktop with a gas oven) options to suit your cooking needs. Additionally, FORNO offers a special line called Lazio, an affordable 30" all-gas range with unique features.
If you’re in the market for a new, more dependable and high-quality kitchen stove, it’s helpful to understand the differences between the FORNO Galiano and Capriasca lines. One of the key distinctions is the BTU rating. The Capriasca boasts a much higher BTU rating than the Galiano. For example, the 48" Capriasca has a powerful 120,000 BTU cooktop, while the Galiano has 107,000 BTU. This higher BTU rating on the Capriasca allows for faster and more precise cooking, making it a great option for serious home cooks or professional chefs who require high heat for searing, boiling, and frying.
Compare the Galiano and Capriasca Range Designs
Another notable difference between the two lines are their oven features. The Capriasca has six telescopic stainless-steel oven racks, providing more versatility for different cooking needs than the four traditional Galiano racks. Additionally, the Capriasca has red LED lights on each knob which illuminate each burner that is in use. In contrast, the Galiano has only one light for all the knobs. The Capriasca also features a blue enamel oven interior, which adds a touch of luxury and makes it easier to clean, compared to the black enamel interior of the Galiano.
When it comes to aesthetics, the Capriasca offers higher-end finishes, such as square feet, giving it a sleek and sophisticated look that can elevate the overall appearance of your kitchen. On the other hand, the Galiano is designed to be more budget-friendly while offering reliable performance and functionality.
The Lazio Line Provides Custom Features
If you're looking for something different, FORNO offers the Lazio series which features an affordable 30" all-gas range. The Lazio range has several custom options, including an air fryer mode (which uses the included air fryer tray accessory) , a built-in temperature gauge showing the oven temperature, and a cast iron skillet and wok ring for versatile cooking options.
If you're interested in purchasing a FORNO range, you can find many models at Home Outlet Direct, including the FORNO 48" Galiano gas range with eight burners, a griddle, and a double oven (model number FFSGS6244-48), the FORNO 48" Capriasca gas range with eight burners, a griddle, and a powerful 160,000 BTUs (model number FFSGS6260-48), as well as the FORNO 30" Lazio all gas range with five sealed burners, an air fryer, and a grill (model number FFSGS6276-30).
