The Rangemaster Classic Deluxe CDL90DFFWH/C is a 90cm dual fuel range cooker that blends traditional styling with a modern spec. With two electric ovens, a separate glide-out grill and a 5-burner gas hob including a powerful wok burner, it’s clearly aimed at busy family kitchens and keen home cooks.
Rangemaster is a go-to brand for range cookers in the UK, and this model sits firmly at the premium end of the market, with a price to match. In return, you get generous capacity, flexible cooking options and helpful cleaning features.
Backed by an excellent 4.9 out of 5 rating from well over 600 reviews, it’s a cooker that owners are clearly happy to live with day in, day out.
This Rangemaster is ideal for medium to large households that cook often and like to entertain. The combination of a 79-litre multifunction main oven, 67-litre fan oven and separate grill means you can handle a full Sunday roast, batch baking and midweek meals without juggling trays.
It suits buyers looking for a premium dual fuel setup – the precision and instant control of gas on top, with the even heat and versatility of electric ovens below. If you regularly cook Asian dishes or large one-pot meals, the triple-crown wok burner and included griddle are especially appealing.
The traditional styling in white with chrome trim will suit classic or farmhouse-style kitchens more than ultra-modern minimalist spaces. If you’re planning a statement range on show, this design looks the part.
Because it needs both hard‑wiring by an electrician and a Gas Safe engineer for installation, it’s best suited to people renovating a kitchen or replacing an existing range, rather than someone looking for a quick, plug-in upgrade.
The three-cavity layout is a real strength. A large 79-litre multifunction main oven, a 67-litre fan oven and a dedicated full-width electric grill give you masses of flexibility, whether you’re cooking for two or for a crowd.
The 5-burner gas hob is well specified, with cast iron pan supports for stability, a high-output 4kW triple-crown wok burner for rapid boiling and stir-fries, and a supplied griddle plate for steaks, bacon and vegetable grilling on the hob.
Cooking versatility is excellent. The main oven offers eight functions, including fan assistance, conventional heat, top and bottom elements and defrost, so you can match the heat to whatever you’re cooking. Rapid Response helps preheat quickly, cutting waiting time.
Cleaning is made easier by catalytic liners in the main oven, which help break down grease during cooking, and easy-clean enamel in the other cavities. Features like the glide-out grill, telescopic shelf runners and Handyrack make it safer and simpler to access hot dishes.
Build and safety touches are reassuring. Triple-glazed doors improve efficiency and keep the exterior cooler, while automatic safety shut off and flame failure devices on the gas burners add peace of mind. A 4.9/5 user rating with a two-year warranty rounds out a very solid package.
This is a premium cooker with a premium price tag, so it won’t suit tighter budgets, especially when you factor in the cost of professional electrical and gas installation.
Only the main oven has catalytic liners; the second oven and grill use standard enamel. They’re still easy to wipe down but will need more elbow grease over time, particularly if you grill a lot.
There’s no child lock on the controls and no residual heat indicators, so households with young children will need to be a bit more cautious around the hob.
The second oven and grill cavities lack interior lights, which makes it slightly harder to check on food at a glance. For a cooker at this level, that feels like a missed opportunity for extra convenience.
Day to day, the Classic Deluxe CDL90DFFWH/C is designed to be a workhorse. The front-mounted rotary controls and clear LED clock and timer are straightforward to use, so you’re not hunting for hidden buttons when the hob is busy. Automatic ignition means the burners light with a simple turn and press.
The layout is practical: the main oven on the left, a tall fan oven on the right and the grill at the top. That makes it easy to separate different dishes – for example, roasting meat in the main oven, veg in the tall oven and finishing off crispy toppings under the grill.
Features like the glide-out grill and telescopic shelf runners are genuinely useful in everyday cooking. They let you pull food out safely to baste or turn without reaching into the heat. The Handyrack, which fixes a roasting tray to the inside of the main oven door, makes checking and basting a joint much more comfortable.
Cleaning is less of a chore than on a basic cooker. The catalytic liners in the main oven help burn off grease as you cook, so regular high‑temperature use keeps the interior fresher. The hob’s steel surface and chunky cast iron pan supports feel robust; they will need lifting off for a proper clean but stand up well to heavy use.
Because this is a substantial 90cm range, it needs dedicated space and feels more permanent than a standard cooker. Once in, though, it’s the kind of appliance that can comfortably handle everything from quick weekday dinners to Christmas lunch.
Performance starts with the ovens. The 79-litre main cavity is multifunctional with eight settings, including fan-assisted cooking, conventional heat and separate top or bottom elements. That means you can crisp pizzas on the base, bake evenly on multiple shelves or gently finish dishes under the top element, all in the same oven.
The tall 67-litre second oven is a straightforward fan oven, excellent for batch baking and cooking multiple trays at once. With seven shelf positions across the ovens and plenty of supplied shelves, you can slot in trays where you need them. Energy ratings of A for both ovens and A/A overall are reassuring for such a large appliance.
On the hob, five gas burners cover everything from a 1kW simmer burner for sauces to a 4kW triple-crown wok burner for high-heat cooking. Cast iron supports keep pans stable, and the steel surface is tough enough for regular heavy pans. For those who prefer bottled gas, the cooker is LPG compatible, though a conversion kit is extra.
The separate full-width electric grill in the third cavity is variable, so you can dial in lower heat for gentle browning or crank it up for fast cheese on toast and searing. The glide-out design makes it much easier to judge progress without dragging a hot pan out over the door.
Convenience features are strong for this category: Rapid Response to speed up preheating, catalytic liners where it matters most, a programmable electronic clock with minute minder, and safety systems such as automatic shut-off and flame failure devices. The two-year manufacturer warranty and the fact it’s made in the UK will also appeal if you’re looking for reliability and local support.
This Rangemaster sits at the higher end of the price spectrum for 90cm dual fuel range cookers. You’re paying for a recognised specialist brand, substantial capacity and a notably rich set of features rather than a basic spec.
When you factor in the three separate cavities, powerful and versatile gas hob, catalytic cleaning in the main oven and user-friendly touches like the Handyrack, telescopic runners and glide-out grill, the cost starts to look more justified for a busy kitchen that will use them.
The outstanding 4.9/5 user rating from hundreds of owners suggests that real-world reliability and satisfaction are strong, which helps the value case over the long term. If you simply need an occasional-use cooker, this will be overkill, but for regular entertainers and keen cooks, it offers a lot of substance behind the price tag.
The Rangemaster Classic Deluxe CDL90DFFWH/C is a thoroughly capable 90cm dual fuel range cooker that delivers on space, flexibility and everyday usability. Its triple-cavity layout, powerful 5-burner gas hob and well-thought-out features make it a genuine upgrade over a standard cooker for households that love to cook.
There are a few compromises – notably the lack of catalytic liners in the second oven and grill, no child lock and a premium price – but none are deal-breakers if you value performance and versatility. The excellent owner ratings and solid two-year warranty add further confidence.
If you want a traditionally styled, feature-rich range that can comfortably handle everything from weekday family meals to bigger gatherings, and you’re prepared to invest in a premium model, this Rangemaster is an outstanding option to put at the heart of your kitchen.
