“We wanted to offer a professional range that embodies radical Italian design and industry innovation, and this impressive range is a sexy cooking machine that changes the game for ultra-premium cooking appliances,” said Marco Guerzoni, Forza Director of Marketing and Product Development.
“Family and culture are very important to us, and so we recognized the need for a range that could support large, multicultural cuisines.”
Designed with Studio Carlesi and manufactured by Forza, the new Forza 48-inch Professional Gas Range is the world’s first 48-inch single cavity oven—a sexy beast wide enough to fit two turkeys during the holidays, or multiple commercial-sized trays for baking several dozen cookies at once.
The boldly sculpted range has been recently awarded a 2021 Good Design Award from The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.
Forza products are radically designed with profound tradition and modern sophistication. They’re committed to combining the best of design, aesthetics and styling to bring exquisitely manufactured cooking appliances to the world’s kitchens.
The firm’s products are dedicated to the proposition that dramatically sculpted lines, inspired colors, superb technology, and engineering enhance every culinary experience.
Spanning 40-inches wide, the range is radically designed with 8 high-powered burners including four dual-flame burners that range from 685 BTU to 20,000 BTU and four from 2,200 to 12,000 BTU burners.
Equipped with Forza’s proprietary MassimoBlu™ Hyper Double Broiler, MaxRotisserie accessory and the Infinito™ Grate System, this range is a dynamic force for any kitchen and elevates the cooking experience.
Featuring an impressive 7.8 cubic feet, the range cavity has over 40-inches of clearance. The oven goes 0 to 400°F in 8 mins and tops out at 536°F in 20 minutes with a 19,000 BTU bake burner.
The range features Forza’s proprietary MassimoBlu™ Hyper Double Broiler—the industry’s only blue-flame double broiler. With 18,000 BTU, it heats the oven cavity evenly from edge to edge, eliminating cold spots and maximizing the heating area.
An additional ultra-premium function is the exclusive Infinito™ Grate System—the industry’s only continuous grate system with an integrated bullnose, utilizing edge-to-edge cast iron grates.
With four 12,000 BTU full brass burners in the back and four 20,000 BTU dual-flame full brass burners in the front, it has 128,000 BTU of total cooktop power.
Finally, its bold form and style embody the soul of radical Italian design with the heart of an American muscle car, featuring unique angular racecar-inspired lines, offered in seven vivid color options.
