I'm in love with the La Cornue Chateau.

@lacanchelust Год назад

You are correct that Lacanche is in between the CornuFe and the Chateau. However, Chateau is soooo much more that I feel it’s a different category all together. Lacanche and CornuFe are a closer comparison. Yes, American ranges have more standard sizes, steam, and stronger BTU. However, I have yet to see one that has the character, beauty, and personality of a Lacanche. I also chose it because it is NOT smart. Unlike an Ilve that completely stops working all together if the clock breaks…the Lacanche can work if we lose power, has parts I can fix myself, so I am less reliant on ever breaking technology and cheap, throwaway parts. Just my two cents on why I chose what I chose.

@YaleAppliance1 Год назад

You are so right about Ilve....I like Lacanche, but like the others better, but its is a good value at the larger sizes.

@commonlaw5400 9 месяцев назад

I was heartbroken to read the reviews for ILVE off site of Appliance Connection. It is such a beautiful piece of artistry. What I learned about service for Bluestar : During warranty period call Bluestar, they will dispatch technicians from THEIR chosen service center for your area. The only thing that may snag the service company is the size of your oven. I called the chosen company to make sure they would come to my home if needed. First they said no because they thought two people would need to be dispatched because of how heavy the ovens are. I explained I was getting the 30 inch and I could help if needed. Oh ok, then that's fine. Also, when you order ANY oven that has the igniter go ahead and order extras right away. I was told they are easy for the owner to replace.

Thank you for doing this video. So tickled to see these gorgeous ranges, but more importantly your information and insights!

I love my Lacanche. I love that it looks as good and functions as well at 10 years old as it will at 75 years old. I took nearly 5 years to decide I wanted to make the investment and I've never regretted doing so; however, I am very glad I did not rush into it. Mine is a Rully (a Cormatin with 2 ovens) which is perfect for my 100-year-old bungalow, but which may feature a smaller oven than Americans expect. I also looked at CornuFe (La Cornue being out of reach for me) but there really is no comparison between Lacanche and CornuFe. Fun side note - I visited Lacanche (near Beaune) to see where my range was built. Jean Jacques Augagneur was kind enough to take my friends and me out to lunch after giving us a tour of the factory. Another American couple was visiting their range at the same time. If you do decide to purchase a Lacanche, you may find you develop quite a relationship with it. 🙂

My favourite. Im in love with the Sully (the huge one). Can't wait to buy one.

@sithabelamandlawenkosiwodu6298 5 месяцев назад

I will buy the Lacanche Sully soon. Thanks for the post.

I am Italian and I live in Italy ,I have lacanche range , which I love but to be onest American pro range ovens are much better, brand like Wolf Termadore ( which is not in to the market in Italy ) and Viking ,give more option to oven function and the self cleaning is the cookbest friend .As a style French range have more …charme…colors and style

@bluedrummajor2876 Год назад

Realistically, I can't afford to buy either unless I were to win a Lottery, and if I did then I would more likely buy either Cove/SubZero/Wolf or Gaggenau. However, between these two, I would choose Lacanche.

@YaleAppliance1 Год назад

Dont think either the Lacanche or Cornufe are that much more expensive....

@invisiblekid99 Год назад

Wolf/SubZero is most definitely not better and also just as expensive.

@venom5809 7 месяцев назад

I have always wanted a La Cornue but I have been through many multi-million dollar homes and even at above $5 million and $10 million, I have only ever seen one house with a La Cornue in it. I always found that strange. Almost always it's a Wolf or Viking. My neighbor has an incredible 60 inch Viking in green and gold and while it looks impressive I haven't found it really does anything that special.

@YaleAppliance1 7 месяцев назад

La Cornue needs knowledgeable dealers...much easier selling Wolf.

@judyheinrich7249 Год назад

what is your opinion of purchasing a LaCornuFe thru Williams Sonoma?

@YaleAppliance1 Год назад

Pray it doesn't need repair.

@ptick16 8 месяцев назад

I'm curious as to why Molteni was left out of this comparison. Particularly because the video is titled the best "French" range.

@YaleAppliance1 8 месяцев назад

Hmmm...Molteni, I will look into it.

@letterspace1letterspace266 Год назад

So after i pickup my Bentley, these are the choices i have for kitchen ranges. Beautiful hardware, but eye watering prices and no it isn't from the onions im cutting up

@owenjones-wells9395 Год назад

Well price is relative. For me, I love the style and the functions of the Lacanche. The only other option for me would be (in UK) either an AGA or a Rayburn, which are almost twice the price of a Lacanche. Of course these are much more than most modern built in oven/hob options, but these lack the style of the Lacanche ranges. I'm not rich by any means, but would happily pay the extra for a Lacanche range.

@hastensavoir7782 11 месяцев назад

You also need Kitchen cabinets too.

@triaxe-mmb Год назад

Given AGA builds the cornue fe line, how is the quality and reliability? Can it be used as a proxy for the AGA ranges for reliability discussions?

@triaxe-mmb Год назад

Asking cause I am considering an AGA for my kitchen but can't find any reviews, reliability data, or serviceability info for my Area (SF Bay Area - East Bay)

@YaleAppliance1 Год назад

They build the CornuFe in that factory. Chateau is made in France...Cornufe is a decent range

@triaxe-mmb Год назад

@@YaleAppliance1 while I have your attention - any new 48" range coming that will be 100% induction cooktop? I really want one but the biggest 100% induction I can find is the AGA one, hence considering it... The other option is a 36" range but it would be kind of small in my space.

@alexanderjamieson7971 Год назад

Does anyone know if my Lacanche in Germany will work in the US? In other words can I ship my Lacanche to the U.S. and simply just change the plug connection in the back and it will work in the U.S.?

@YaleAppliance1 5 месяцев назад

whats the model? We don't sell it, but its probably easy to figure out

@GetLostJourney 5 месяцев назад

@@YaleAppliance1 So sorry I did not see the reply. The model is the Savigny 43 1/2". which I believe works on 230v 50hz. I think he US is 220-240v 60hz right? Is the Hz a problem?

i m a private chef and i have been working this last 3 months on lacornue with both ovens gas and electric, it was a bloody nightmare! impossible to get the right oven temperatures, things get burn and uncooked inside. the difference temperature from the back to the front is huge, stove is such a pain to clean! okey it's looks great but 100k for such a piece of crap, what a shame... for me the worst cooking time ever!

@YaleAppliance1 11 месяцев назад
