Prima vs Ultima: What Is the Difference?
Prima is Verona's stainless steel line. The models here have easy-clean enamel oven cavities and a storage compartment under the oven. Ultima ranges use SABAF brass burners, a storage drawer and come in colors; the Ultima Midnight collection adds a matte black finish and air fry on the model here.
Both lines share the same basic layout: five burners or elements, a 5 cu. ft. convection oven and a 25 1/4-inch depth that lines up with standard counters.
- Prima: stainless steel, easy-clean enamel oven
- Ultima: colors, brass burners, storage drawer
- Ultima Midnight: matte black, air fry on the model here
Gas, Dual Fuel or Electric?
Gas ranges cook with gas on top and in the oven and only need a standard outlet. Dual fuel ranges put gas burners over an electric oven, which gives very even baking heat but needs both a gas line and a 240-volt circuit. Electric ranges need no gas at all, just a 240-volt circuit.
For a deeper look at the trade-offs, see our gas vs induction vs dual fuel guide and how to measure for a professional range.
