Bertazzoni Rangetops

Bertazzoni Rangetops at Plesser's Appliances

Bertazzoni rangetops, available at Plesser's Appliances, are the professional cooking surface of a Bertazzoni range without the oven beneath it. Built in Emilia-Romagna since 1882, a rangetop delivers the deepest surface configuration options in the lineup, installed above a cabinet run with the oven placed elsewhere in the kitchen.

Rangetop vs. Cooktop
A cooktop drops into a countertop cutout and sits shallow, preserving drawer space below. A rangetop is deeper and taller, with a raised surface, full professional control depth, and typically higher output — installed above a cabinet rather than into a countertop. This determines the cabinetry design, so settle it before millwork.

Sealed Brass Burners at Full Output
Rangetops carry sealed brass burners including dual-ring power burners at the top of Bertazzoni's residential output range. That low-end control matters more here than anywhere, since it keeps a high-output surface usable for delicate work rather than only for high heat. Confirm burner count and output for your width.

Griddle and Surface Configuration
Rangetops offer the widest surface configuration choice, including cast iron griddle options in combination with burners, with available layouts varying by width. Because configuration is fixed at the factory, this is an order-time decision rather than something changed later. Confirm which combinations exist in your chosen width.

Professional Appearance and Controls
The raised surface, heavy grates, and full-depth control panel give a rangetop the look of commercial equipment, with Bertazzoni's series-matched knob and handle treatments. In an open kitchen this is a deliberate design statement rather than a concealed appliance.

Ventilation, Clearance, and Installation Planning
Rangetops produce high output and require ventilation sized to that output, adequate clearance to combustibles and any wall behind, and a cabinet run built to the unit's specific dimensions. Talk to the team at Plesser's Appliances about width, surface configuration, gas supply, and hood capacity together — the rangetop and hood should be specified as one decision.
