Read This Before Buying Bertazzoni Appliances (2026 Review)

When you think of Italy, you might picture family, incredible food, and beautiful design. That same passion shows up in Bertazzoni, a sixth-generation, family-run brand that’s been shaping the way the world cooks since 1882. Today, Bertazzoni is still designed in Italy, still focused on performance and style, and still considered one of the best values in the luxury appliance space.

If you’re building a new kitchen, planning a remodel, or putting together an appliance suite for a client, here’s what you should know before buying Bertazzoni in 2026.

 

A Quick Look at What Makes Bertazzoni Different

Bertazzoni sits in a sweet spot: high-end design, strong cooking performance, and a wide range of finishes, all backed by a legacy brand that has stayed family-driven for more than 140 years. It’s a favorite among homeowners who want something special, and it’s also widely specified by designers because it can fit multiple styles without feeling “cookie cutter.”

 

Three Style Collections: Professional, Master, and Heritage

Bertazzoni makes it easy to match appliances to the look of your kitchen by offering three distinct design directions.

Professional Series: Clean, Modern, and Polished

This is the collection most people picture when they think “modern Italian kitchen.” The Professional series features ergonomic metal knobs, sleek handles, and a refined look that fits beautifully in contemporary spaces. If you want your kitchen to feel elevated and intentional without going overly industrial, Professional is a great starting point.

Master Series: Pro Style Without the Bulk

The Master series is a fantastic middle ground for cooks who want a professional vibe without the heavy, commercial look you see in some pro-style brands. You’ll notice larger round knobs and angled handles that feel substantial. It’s strong, capable, and designed for people who cook often, but still feels distinctly Italian and design-forward.

Heritage Series: Classic Character with Old-World Charm

The Heritage series is easily the most distinctive. Inspired by Bertazzoni’s early wood-burning stoves, it brings sculpted knobs, classic handles, and a warmer, traditional feel. If your kitchen leans traditional or transitional, or you simply want appliances with personality, Heritage delivers a timeless look that stands out in the best way.

 

Finishes and Colors That Feel Like Luxury Design (Because They Are)

One of Bertazzoni’s biggest strengths is how boldly they approach finishes. These are not afterthought colors. They’re inspired by Italian craftsmanship, nature, and even the automotive world, with durable paint processes and enamel work designed to last.

A standout favorite is Carbonio, a deep, rich finish that feels dramatic and premium in person. It’s the kind of detail that turns an appliance into a design feature, not just a tool.

 

Bertazzoni Induction Ranges: A Real Highlight

Bertazzoni ranges are known for blending beauty with purpose, and their induction lineup is a great example. A highlight from the video is the 48-inch all-induction range, which includes:

  • 6 cooking zones, reaching up to 3,700 watts

  • Bridging options for oversized cookware

  • A cast iron griddle

  • Two oven cavities with seven shelf positions

  • A meat probe for precision roasting

  • A dedicated air fry mode using the included stainless steel mesh basket

And if 48 inches is more range than you need, similar induction options are also available in 30-inch and 36-inch sizes.

 

Wall Ovens That Feel Predictable (In a Good Way)

If you bake, roast, or broil often, Bertazzoni wall ovens are designed to feel intuitive and consistent. The controls are straightforward, the cooking cycles are dependable, and results stay predictable once you learn your settings.

For cooks who want more versatility, Steam Assist adds a gentle moisture boost that can improve texture, preserve flavor, and help you get bakery-style results at home. Bertazzoni also offers convection speed ovens and steam ovens, which are great additions if you want multiple cooking tools in a matched suite.

 

Dishwashers That Work Hard and Stay Quiet

Bertazzoni dishwashers come in 18-inch and 24-inch sizes, which is a big plus for tighter layouts, ADUs, and secondary kitchens. Their top model includes features that matter in real life:

  • Three spray arms for better coverage

  • A Direct Wash Zone built for baked-on messes

  • Capacity for up to 16 place settings

  • Three adjustable racks, including a full-width cutlery tray

  • Power Dry Plus for improved drying, especially plastics

  • Quiet operation at 39 decibels, which is impressively low

The controls are also clean and modern with a concealed interface, so the look stays sleek.

 

Refrigeration Options: Columns, Bottom Mounts, and Freestanding

Bertazzoni offers several refrigeration paths depending on your kitchen plan:

Built-In Columns

Designed for performance and longevity, with bright interior LED lighting and a touch control interface for precise temperature management. A variable speed compressor supports efficiency, and the brand’s lift-and-swing hinge design helps enable true flush installation, even when pairing units side-by-side.

Built-In Bottom Mount Units

Featuring lateral airflow plus dual compressors and evaporators to reduce cold air loss and maximize interior usable space.

Freestanding Models

Great when you want the Bertazzoni look and performance without full built-in planning.

Across the board, the goal is the same: thoughtful engineering, good interior visibility, and reliable preservation.

 

Is Bertazzoni Worth It in 2026?

If you want Italian design, meaningful feature sets, and the ability to build a cohesive suite across cooking, dishwashing, and refrigeration, Bertazzoni is absolutely worth considering. It’s especially appealing for homeowners and designers who want something more unique than the usual luxury short list, without sacrificing performance.

The best part is that Bertazzoni gives you options: bold finishes, multiple style families, and configurations that can work in both modern and classic kitchens.
