The Rangemaster Classic Deluxe CDL100DFFMG/B is a 100cm dual fuel range cooker that mixes traditional styling with modern practicality. Finished in Mineral Green with brass detailing, it is designed to be a standout feature in a classic or country-style kitchen.
With three cooking cavities, a roomy 5-burner gas hob and a multifunction main oven, this is very much a premium choice aimed at keen cooks and busy households that entertain regularly. Dual fuel cookers from Rangemaster are well regarded, and the strong 4.9 out of 5 user rating suggests owners are extremely happy with how this model performs.
It is not a budget buy, but you are paying for space, flexibility and the reassurance of a British-made range from a specialist brand.
This Rangemaster is ideal for medium to large households that cook most days and want the flexibility to handle everything from quick midweek meals to big Sunday roasts. The combination of two large electric ovens (79L and 82L) plus a dedicated electric grill means you can comfortably cater for family gatherings or dinner parties without juggling trays.
It suits buyers looking for a premium, long-term investment rather than a stopgap appliance. If you are planning a new kitchen, especially in a period or Shaker style, the Mineral Green and brass finish will appeal to anyone who wants their cooker to be a focal point rather than an afterthought.
Keen home cooks and baking enthusiasts will appreciate the multifunction main oven, fan oven second cavity and 5-burner gas hob with wok burner. There is enough flexibility here for batch cooking, bread, delicate bakes and high-heat stir-fries. At the same time, the straightforward rotary controls and clear LED clock make it accessible for less experienced users.
If you live in a compact flat or rarely cook for more than one or two people, the size and cost may be more than you need. But for families upgrading from a standard 60cm cooker or anyone who entertains frequently, this model fits the brief very well.
The generous cooking space is a major strength. With two large-capacity electric ovens plus a separate full-width electric grill, you can roast, bake and grill simultaneously without compromise. The 5-burner gas hob, complete with sturdy cast-iron pan supports and a wok burner up to 4kW, gives you instant, controllable heat for everything from gentle simmering to searing.
The multifunction main oven, offering eight different cooking functions and fan assistance, makes it easier to match heat settings to what you are cooking, improving results for roasts, pastries and bakes. The second large fan oven adds genuine flexibility, ideal for batch cooking or when different dishes need different temperatures.
Cleaning has been thoughtfully addressed. Catalytic stay-clean liners in the main cavity help absorb and break down grease, while the other cavities feature easy-clean enamel. Features like the Handyrack for safe access to roasting trays, telescopic shelf runners and the glide-out grill all contribute to safer, more convenient day-to-day use.
Build and safety credentials are reassuring. Triple glazed doors, flame failure safety devices on the gas burners, automatic ignition and solid-feeling controls underline its premium positioning. A 2-year manufacturer warranty and British manufacture add peace of mind.
This is clearly a premium product, and the price reflects that. If you simply need more space than a standard cooker offers, there are cheaper range options, albeit with fewer refinements and often plainer finishes.
Despite the high-end positioning, only the main oven gets catalytic liners; the second oven and grill rely on enamel, so you will still need to put in some effort to keep them looking fresh. There is also no pyrolytic self-cleaning function, which some similarly priced electric models now offer.
The second oven and grill cavities lack interior lights, which can be a minor annoyance when checking on food. There is no control panel lock or residual heat indicator, which some families with young children may miss. Finally, installation is not plug-and-play: it needs hard wiring by an electrician and a Gas Safe engineer for the hob, which adds to the overall cost if you do not already have those arrangements in place.
Living with the Classic Deluxe feels reassuringly straightforward once it is installed. The layout is intuitive: the main multifunction oven sits bottom left, the large fan oven top right, and the grill in the upper central cavity. Rotary controls give precise manual control without endless menus, while the LED clock and electronic minute minder help you keep track of cooking times.
The 5-burner gas hob offers a practical spread of burner sizes, making it easy to match pans to the right burner. Cast-iron pan supports are reassuringly solid, so heavy pots feel stable, which matters when all burners are in use for big meals. Automatic ignition and flame failure devices mean lighting the hob is quick and safe.
On the oven side, the telescopic shelf runners and Handyrack make accessing hot dishes much less awkward, particularly when you are lifting a heavy roast out of a deep cavity. The doors are triple glazed, helping retain heat and making the glass cooler to the touch than basic designs, which is useful in family kitchens.
Cleaning day-to-day is helped by the catalytic liners in the main oven, which deal with much of the grease if you run the oven at higher temperatures. The remaining enamel interiors still require a wipe down, but the smooth surfaces are easy enough to maintain if you keep on top of spills.
Performance is a clear strong point. The dual fuel setup combines the responsiveness of gas on the hob with the even, reliable heat of electric ovens. The 1–4kW burner range, including a high-powered wok burner, gives you the flexibility to simmer sauces gently or blast a stir-fry with intense heat.
The main 79L multifunction oven is the workhorse, offering eight cooking functions with both fan-assisted and conventional options, as well as bottom-only, top-only and combined element modes. This allows you to tailor heat to different recipes, whether you are crisping pastry, slow-roasting meat or baking sponges. It carries an A energy rating, and the energy consumption figures are in line with expectations for a large-capacity oven.
The second 82L electric fan oven is more straightforward, with a single fan function and an A rating. Its real value lies in capacity: it effectively doubles your usable oven space for larger gatherings, batch baking or when you want different dishes at different temperatures. Four shelves in this cavity give you plenty of flexibility over rack positions.
The third cavity is a 25L full-width electric grill with a variable, dual-circuit element and a glide-out tray. Open-door grilling and a decent surface area make it useful for everything from toast to cheese-topped dishes and quick snacks. While it lacks a light, the pull-out design makes it easier to keep an eye on browning.
Beyond core cooking, the feature set is well considered. The Catch-rite door fixture, mark-resistant control panel, LED display, telescopic shelves and Handyrack all improve usability and perceived quality. Safety features such as automatic safety shut-off, flame failure protection and triple-glazed doors round out a feature list that matches its premium status.
This Rangemaster sits firmly in the premium end of the dual fuel range cooker market. You are paying a noticeable uplift over basic 90cm and entry-level 100cm ranges, largely for the build quality, classic styling, extra capacity and thoughtful convenience features.
When you factor in the two large ovens, separate grill, 5-burner gas hob with wok burner, catalytic liners in the main oven, and a host of small but meaningful touches like the Handyrack and telescopic shelves, the specification goes beyond many cheaper alternatives. The British manufacture and 2-year warranty also contribute to the sense of a long-term investment rather than a disposable appliance.
The very strong 4.9/5 user rating from owners reinforces the feeling that buyers are getting what they paid for in terms of reliability and everyday satisfaction. It is not the best choice if you are on a tight budget, but if you value design, capacity and versatility, the price is easier to justify over the years you will use it.
The Rangemaster Classic Deluxe CDL100DFFMG/B is an impressive dual fuel range cooker that combines generous capacity, flexible cooking options and charming traditional styling. It is well suited to busy family kitchens and enthusiastic home cooks who regularly push their appliances hard, whether for roasts, baking or entertaining.
Its standout strengths are the dual large ovens, powerful and practical gas hob, and a range of usability touches that make day-to-day cooking and cleaning less of a chore. Owners clearly rate it highly, and the overall specification lives up to its premium billing.
The main caveats are the high upfront cost, partial rather than full self-cleaning coverage, and a few missing niceties such as oven lights in all cavities and a control lock. If your budget stretches and you want a range that looks the part and performs brilliantly, this Rangemaster deserves to be near the top of your shortlist.
