Things to consider when purchasing a new range cooker

Choosing a new range cooker to be the centre piece of your kitchen can be a lenghty and difficult process. With so many factors to take into consideration before making a purchase and such a wide range of products available, we've written this brief guide to assist you in your decision and ensure you choose the correct range cooker for your kitchen.

1) Choosing the right manufacturer.

With a large variety of prestigious names on the market today, it's often a good idea to ask friends or family for recommendations and previous experiences with their own cookers. If that's not an option you should visit a showroom with a good selection of models from all manufacturers on display and ask if you can see them working or better yet try them out. Ensure the brand you choose is a well known and reputable manufacturer who offers a good guarantee with their products.

2) What fuel supply should your range cooker have?

This will determine where your cooker will be sited in your kitchen and should also narrow down the selection of cookers which will be compatible with your kitchen and cooking style. In some cases this will be a clear cut decision as you may not have a gas supply in your kitchen but in the majority of cases the options of gas, electric and dual fuel will remain. You should check with the manufacturer regarding the compatibility of your kitchen with the installation of their products before making a purchase.

3) How many ovens do you require in your range cooker?

Modern range cookers are available in 1, 2, 3 or even 4 oven models. Depending on your cooking style you should consider other modules, e.g a grill or a storage compartment, depending upon your needs.

4) How much should I pay for a range cooker?

Range cookers can cost anywhere between 500 and 5000 depending upon the brand and model you choose. However, like most things, you get what you pay for and if you really enjoy cooking you should look on your range cooker as an investment and shouldn't spare expense on it.
