subject: Give Your Kitchen The Edge With A Black Range Cooker [print this page] A black range cooker is a thing of absolute beauty. Imagine waking up to cook pancakes upon its undulating griddle, or coming home from a hard day's work to its rambling choice of burners and features on which to cook up a veritable feast.
Let's face it, black range cookers really are the bee's knees. There's no doubt about it, they look simply fabulous. And not only that, they're big enough to cook enough to feed the five thousand.
The attraction of a black range cooker is that it can never look out of place, wherever you put it. So whether you're complementing a country kitchen, classic Victoriana or a post modern paradise, a black range cooker will create the focal point of your room (and you can bet it'll become a talking point for family and friends too).
Who should buy a black range cooker?
In terms of who should buy a black range cooker, the general consensus is anyone who can fit one in their house. But these appliances can range from the large to the absolutely massive so don't get carried away before you measure up properly.
For cooking, these appliances are absolutely superb. They often come with a range of extra features, from griddles to rotisseries so you can choose your model depending absolutely upon what you and your family require. So, before you make your choice, assess your needs and eliminate any feature you won't actually use. The fish kettle burner may seem like a great extra, but choosing a model without it could save you a fair amount of cash and confusion (try explaining to your teenagers why there are five different types of burner and when they should be used).
Which black range cooker?
A wonderful mid range model is the Leisure RCM10FRKP dual fuel range cooker. This appliance has an efficient A energy rating - good news for your electricity bills - and it comes with a fan oven. Fan ovens are very useful pieces of kit for the family kitchen because they allow even cooking throughout the oven. Conventional ovens tend to have hot and cold spots depending on whereabouts you place your food. These are great for cooking roast dinners in a single cavity, but can otherwise be a hindrance.
Because this is a dual fuel oven it comes with a gas hob - these are recommended by top chefs for their quick response. And, for your safety the Leisure RCM10FRKP comes with a flame safety device which will automatically cut off the gas supply should the flame be extinguished, preventing dangerous leaks. On the hob, you also benefit from a wok burner and a griddle.
You'll be pleased to know that black range cookers are available in gas, electric and dual fuel, so whatever your fuel choice there's a model for your needs.
