Annette - the 90 com width (1.5 standard unit size) rules out the beasts above. I'm looking at up to ?3k but not sure I'll be able to tell the difference between one at 1.5k or that price point if I'm honest. I too quite like a decent NEFF style 5 burner hob and oven. But an extra WARMING OVEN on most range cookers is luring me in. Warm plates. Warm food.

It's right up there with an ice crusher and dedicated wine coolers in the non-essential kitchen-wank stakes...but like GG will I actually use it?

I got one from Currys for ?600 and it has served the test of time ths far.


In fact it was the brushed steel version of this http://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/kenwood-ck414-dual-fuel-range-cooker-stainless-steel-and-black-06273932-pdt.html 90cm dual fuel

Depends on what you will be cooking - if you just want to cook oven chips and Iceland pizzas then go for something cheap and shiny, on the other hand if you are the sort of person who thinks nothing of knocking up a hollandaise for your poached quail egg breakfast before work then you probably want something a bit better:


I would go for one of these (in stainless steel obviously)

Curtain, El Pibe - both picked stainless steel - is that the current choice of finish for the hipsters of ED? I'm thinking "hard to clean finger prints"


DB - I like that Falcon but quite like having a window into the ovens for some reason.


Which? rate the Rangemaster 90 but also say that you're never exactly sure what temp the oven is at with it's dial and that would bother me.


It also has a tray for the roast which attaches to the door so you can check it without lifting out of the oven = neat.

I have just moved house and inherited a rangemaster professional - two ovens, separate grill, 5 burners and hot plate thing. I effing love it. Buy one buy one now! It makes doing a Sunday dinner so much easier as you can have one oven slow roasting and the other one at warp speed for yorkshires.
  • 2 months later...

Looking for an oven for the new house. We have a 1200mm gap to fill and they all seem a bit pricey for that.


I found a funky steel cuisine cooker and thought 'that's the one' but nearly died of a heart attack at the ?5,400 price tag.

Can anyone recommend a sexy cooker for your dream house without necessarily breaking the bank?

I think it's a bit late for that now unfortuantely as the walls are going up.


It was originally for La Piba's mum's old aga we were getting reconditioned, but the cost of running those things is

astronomical, plus we've carefully worked out all our heat sources for the houses requirements.


I think we could put in work surfaces at either side of the recess or something, so you could be on to something.


In reality what I'll do is spend 6 months beating myself up about it and finally spending ludicrous sums on the cooker in question else I'll spend the next 15 years walking past the inferior cooker and tutting at myself.

    • Loki hasn’t been seen since Sunday. He’s all grey but if you look closely he has faint stripes on the top of his tail. No pedigree, just very much loved. About 4 years old. No collar, but chipped.  please keep an eye out for him. We live on Barry Road SE22
    • I went in here the other day. The fruit is all really good - ripe and fresh. They also sell good bread (and croissants and pastries) from a independent bakery, the name of which I've forgotten. 🤦 The prices (which are marked) are not cheap but they are fair imo. Comparable to the specialist fruit shop on Lordship Lane (Brothers?) for really good quality. It's similar prices to Simply Fresh - but Simply Fresh's fruit and veg is very poor. Beaten about and tasteless. Sainsbury's is certainly cheaper. IMVHO they're a good addition to the Dulwich Village "retail offer".
    • Went actually for the first time yesterday. Terrific food, so was well pleased. Agree with previous poster to support.
    • Hi!! Moving house soon so looking for some cardboard boxes. Anyone know of any shops or cafes that may be giving some away?
