Gas and Electrical Ranges from Dacor

Dacor has added downdraft-compatible 30-inch gas and electrical ranges to its Distinctive Series. The ranges feature an angled control panel, the company’s flame-blue glow to indicate whether a cooktop element is turned on, and die-cast stainless steel knobs with a metallic finish. The 4.8-cubic-foot oven is fitted with two racks that have handles to help users move heavy dishes in and out. Four, 14-inch grates allow the cooktop to function as a continuous surface on which three burners power up to 15,000 BTU while the fourth offers controlled cooking from 800 BTU to 18,000 BTU. The model is available as a slide-in or free-standing model. Dacor, 800.793.0093; www.dacor.com.
