Range Cookers - Buyers Guide
Fuel Most models come in a choice of fuel types. Electric - Electric range cookers have the advantage of easy clean ceramic hobs and fast heating ovens. Look out for features such as halogen hobs that offer almost instant heat. Gas and LPG - Gas and LPG (Liquid Petroleum Gas) have the benefit of instant heat from the hobs but slower heat up times in the oven. You will also need a gas or LPG supply in place to use this type of cooker. Dual Fuel - If you have gas plus a 30amp electricity supply then consider a dual fuel range cooker (gas hob, electric oven). This is by far the most popular option as it combines the control of a gas hob with the faster heat up times, and more even temperatures, of an electric oven. Width Range cookers come in different widths from 85cm to 120cm. By choosing a product that fits the gap in your kitchen, you will achieve a sleek, fitted look. Style
Range cookers come in lots of different styles such as 'traditional farmhouse' for a country kitchen or 'contemporary stainless steel' for a professional look. There are porthole or solid doors and a wide choice of colours and fittings. How Much Cooking If you cook for many people then choose a range cooker with a double oven plus a separate grill. There are many benefits including being able to cook at different temperatures, grilling and baking at the same time and having extra cooking space when catering for friends or family. If you would like to save time then an electric fan oven could be the ideal choice as heat up and cooking times are reduced. Type of Cooking Some cookers have special features such as an extra-fast wok burner for cooking stir fries, or a cast iron griddle that can be used for searing fish and meat. Choose a cooker with a fan oven plus a conventional oven for maximum cooking flexibility and control. Packages There are various packages available that will meet all your cooking needs. These may include: Chimney Hood - To keep your kitchen fresh and clean while you are preparing meals. Choose a chimney hood that matches the style and size of your range cooker. Backplate - A backplate sits at the back of the cooker to protect your walls from spills and splashes while cooking.They are easy to clean and complete the look of cooking area.
