ILVE Professional Plus 70 cm Cooker with 4-Burner Hob and Electronic Oven

A 70 cm cooker combines a four-burner gas hob on the worktop with a 60 cm electric oven below, giving a single unit that fits standard kitchen runs and handles both hob and oven tasks at once.

The electric oven heats with elements above and below the cavity. A fan circulates the hot air, spreading it evenly across every shelf. This moving air cooks food faster and more uniformly than still heat, and lets the oven reach the set temperature quickly. The temperature range from 30 °C to 320 °C covers everything from gentle warming to high-temperature roasting and baking.

To use the cooker, the operator first selects the oven function and sets the temperature on the electronic control panel. The oven door opens downwards, and the shelves slide out on runners for loading. Once the food is in place, the door is closed and the oven is switched on. The control panel shows the current temperature and the time remaining. When the cycle finishes, the oven switches off automatically and the food is removed with oven gloves. On the hob, each burner is lit with a spark ignition and adjusted with a control knob. The burners are used for boiling, frying, sautéing and simmering while the oven runs.

The cooker is built in stainless steel, giving a durable, easy-clean surface that resists stains and corrosion. The oven cavity is also stainless steel, with a removable door and shelves that slide on runners. The hob has four cast-iron burners, each with a flame failure device for safety.

The electronic control panel on the front of the oven sets the temperature, the cooking function and the timer. The display shows the current settings and the time remaining. The control knobs for the hob adjust the gas flow to each burner, giving precise control over the flame size.

The 700 mm width fits standard kitchen runs and leaves room for adjacent appliances or cupboards. The 600 mm depth allows the cooker to sit flush with most worktops, and the 860 mm height matches standard worktop heights for comfortable use. The A+ energy class means the oven uses less electricity than lower-rated models, reducing running costs in a busy kitchen.

Cleaning the cooker involves wiping the stainless steel surfaces with a damp cloth and mild detergent. The oven shelves and runners can be removed for thorough cleaning. The hob burners lift off for access to the drip tray beneath, and the flame ports can be brushed clear of debris. The oven door can be removed for easier access to the cavity.

The cooker is supplied as a single unit with the 60 cm electronic oven and four-burner hob combined. No separate versions or variants are listed for this article.
