The Rangemaster Professional Plus FX PROP90FXDFFSS/C is a 90cm dual fuel range cooker that mixes a powerful gas hob with a large electric multifunction oven. Finished in stainless steel and chrome, it’s designed to look the part in a modern kitchen while offering serious cooking flexibility.
Rangemaster is a go-to brand in the UK for range cookers, and this model sits firmly in the premium bracket, both in styling and specification. With a huge 114-litre main cavity, oven divider panel and a sturdy 5-burner hob, it’s clearly built for households that actually cook, not just reheat.
Owners rate it highly, with an average score of 4.7 out of 5 from well over three hundred reviews, which gives strong reassurance that the performance and reliability live up to the price tag.
This Rangemaster is ideal for medium to large households that cook often. The 90cm width and 114-litre oven capacity give you the space to handle Sunday roasts, batch cooking and dinner parties without feeling cramped.
It suits confident home cooks and keen foodies who want the control of gas on the hob and the precision of an electric multifunction oven. The 5-burner layout, including a powerful triple crown wok burner and Teppanyaki-style griddle, will appeal if you like experimenting with stir-fries, searing and bigger pans.
Budget-wise, this is a premium option rather than an entry-level range. It makes most sense if you’ll genuinely use the extra capacity and flexible cooking modes, rather than just wanting the look of a range.
It also works well for households that want one big, versatile oven rather than juggling multiple smaller cavities. The energy-saving divider panel lets you split the space when you don’t need the full 114 litres, which is handy for everyday meals.
The standout advantage is the enormous 114-litre multifunction oven, which comfortably handles large roasts, big trays and multi-shelf baking. It’s a genuine upgrade from standard single ovens if you cook for a crowd.
The oven divider and energy-saving panel are genuinely useful: you can turn the single large cavity into two separate cooking zones when needed, or heat only part of the oven for smaller meals to save energy and warm-up time.
On the hob, the 5-burner gas layout with cast iron pan supports feels robust and practical. The triple crown wok burner and optional wok cradle give fast, even heat for stir-fries and large pots, while the included Teppanyaki-style griddle adds another cooking surface without taking up permanent space.
Everyday usability is boosted by features like telescopic shelf runners, a bright interior light, automatic ignition and a clear LED programmable timer. The enamel interior and easy-clean enamel coating make spills less of a chore than on bare metal.
Safety and build quality are reassuring, with a flame failure safety device on the hob, triple-glazed door, automatic safety shut off and Rangemaster’s Catch-rite door fixture for a solid, secure close.
Despite the premium positioning, the main cavity relies on enamel rather than catalytic or pyrolytic self-cleaning liners, so you’ll still need to put in some elbow grease for deep cleans.
There’s only a single physical oven cavity, even though the divider lets you create two zones. If you often need truly independent temperatures and timings for very different dishes, a twin-cavity or traditional multi-oven range could suit better.
There’s no dedicated separate grill cavity and the spec lists “Grill Type (Main Cavity): None”, which may confuse some buyers expecting a conventional grill setup. If you rely heavily on grilling and like to do it while baking in another space, it’s worth double-checking how you’d use your current oven before switching.
Installation isn’t plug-and-play: it needs hard wiring by an electrician and connection by a Gas Safe engineer, and neither the electrical cable nor gas hose is included. That adds cost and planning on top of the purchase price.
Finally, the 2-year manufacturer warranty is decent but not exceptional at this price; some rivals offer longer cover.
Day to day, the Professional Plus FX feels like a proper cook’s tool. The rotary controls are straightforward, and the LED programmable timer makes it easy to set cooking times and keep track of longer bakes and roasts.
The 5-burner gas hob gives plenty of room for multiple pans, and the cast iron pan supports feel solid and stable, so large pots and heavy casseroles sit securely. Automatic ignition is quick and convenient, and the flame failure safety device cuts the gas if a flame goes out, which is reassuring in a busy family kitchen.
Inside the oven, the telescopic shelf runners make it much easier to slide out heavy trays to check or baste without wrestling with hot metal. The large door window and interior light give a clear view of what’s happening, so you’re less likely to overcook or underbake.
Cleaning is simpler than on older-style ovens thanks to the easy-clean enamel interior, which helps stop grease from baking on too hard. You’ll still need to wipe it down regularly, but everyday spills usually come off with a few passes of a cloth rather than harsh scrubbing.
The built-in storage drawer is handy for keeping trays, the Teppanyaki griddle and extra cookware close by without cluttering worktops.
Performance is a key strength here. The large 114-litre electric oven is multifunctional with seven settings, including fan assistance, top and bottom elements and a defrost function. That means you can tailor the heat to what you’re cooking, from crisping up pizzas to gentle baking and roasting.
The dual fuel setup plays to the strengths of each power source: the gas hob responds instantly when you adjust the flame, while the electric oven offers steady, even heat. Energy consumption figures of 1.16 kWh (conventional) and 0.97 kWh (fan) are respectable for an oven this size, especially when you factor in the option to use only part of the cavity.
On the hob, the burners range from 1 to 4 kW, giving you everything from gentle simmering to high-output searing. The triple crown wok burner is particularly powerful, ideal for rapid stir-frying or bringing big pans of water to the boil. Cast iron pan supports span the hob to let you move pans around easily without lifting.
The oven divider and energy saving panel are standout features. They allow the big cavity to be split into two cooking zones, so you can cook different dishes separately without always heating the whole 114 litres. It’s a smart compromise between a single and double oven and makes the cooker more adaptable to everyday life.
Other thoughtful touches include automatic safety shut off, a triple-glazed door to keep more heat in the oven and less in your kitchen, height-adjustable feet to line up with your worktops, and telescopic runners to improve access. The inclusion of a Teppanyaki-style griddle out of the box adds an extra cooking style without buying extra gadgets.
With its premium price, this Rangemaster is an investment rather than a bargain buy. You’re paying for a reputable British brand, a substantial 90cm footprint, dual fuel flexibility and a high-spec feature set.
The generous 114-litre capacity, powerful 5-burner hob, oven divider system and quality touches like cast iron supports, telescopic shelves and triple glazing all help justify the cost if you cook regularly and make use of the flexibility on offer.
A 4.7 out of 5 rating from 381 reviews suggests owners generally feel they’ve got good value for what they spent, particularly in terms of performance and day-to-day usability. If you mainly reheat or cook for one or two people, it’s likely overkill. But for families and keen home cooks looking for a centrepiece range cooker that will be heavily used, the price is easier to justify.
The lack of catalytic or pyrolytic cleaning and only a 2-year warranty hold it back slightly on pure value when compared with some alternatives, but the overall package remains strong for those prioritising capacity, control and brand pedigree.
The Rangemaster Professional Plus FX PROP90FXDFFSS/C is a confidently specified 90cm dual fuel range cooker that delivers where it matters: hob power, oven space and flexible cooking options. It feels built for people who enjoy cooking properly and need room to do it.
Its huge 114-litre multifunction oven, energy-saving divider panel and robust 5-burner gas hob with wok burner and griddle make it a versatile workhorse in a busy kitchen. Everyday usability is helped by simple rotary controls, an LED timer and features like telescopic shelves and easy-clean enamel.
It’s not the cheapest option, nor the easiest to clean deeply, and the single cavity with divider won’t suit everyone who wants completely separate ovens. But if you’re after a premium, reliable range cooker that combines capacity, control and a smart stainless steel finish, this model deserves to be high on your shortlist.
