I have to write a short review to say how nice these Elba units are. I have the 2403 Duel Fuel model. Ignore the Avanti name, they are only the importers and I know their reputation in the US is not of high quality. Elba however is an Italian cooking appliance manufacturer independent of Avanti. My unit is of the same quality of a Viking or other high-end stainless range. Everything is solid & perfectly finished. The oven is spot-on accurate top, bottom, front, back. The triple ring burner is fantastic for large pot quick boiling. The oven programming function is deceptively complete although takes some time to learn. Lastly, the Elba units are about 1/2 the price of similar 24″ American units.

I totally agree with the previous reviewer. This range is completely unlike any of the other Avanti ranges you may have seen; it is made by Elba in Italy, and it doesn’t even have the Avanti name on it — it simply says “ELBA” on the front. The range is visually stunning, it looks very much like much more expensive comparable models from DeLonghi or Fisher + Paykel; all the details are beautiful, from the stainless steel finish to the lovely glass oven door to the heavy duty burner grates to the sealed burners. The burners work beautifully and the large one puts out quite a bit of heat. It’s a simple, elegant, sleek, beautiful, and very solidly built cooking appliance. This one is quite a find, and there’s nothing else like it in its price range.
