The Rangemaster Elise ELS100EIMG is a 100cm-wide electric range cooker with an induction hob, finished in an eye-catching mineral green. It blends classic range styling with a very modern cooking spec, and is firmly positioned at the premium end of the market.
With three ovens plus a separate grill, five responsive induction zones and catalytic liners to cut down on cleaning, it’s designed for households that cook a lot and entertain often. The A energy rating and generous capacities make it a practical workhorse rather than just a showpiece.
Owner feedback is excellent, with a very high user rating from hundreds of reviews, suggesting that real-world performance and reliability broadly live up to the price tag and the Rangemaster name.
This Elise is ideal for larger households and keen cooks who regularly have several dishes on the go. With a 79-litre multifunction main oven, an 82-litre secondary fan oven and a 25-litre dedicated grill, it has the capacity to handle Sunday roasts, batch cooking and dinner parties without feeling cramped.
It’s a strong fit for premium kitchens where the cooker is a focal point. The mineral green finish and traditional styling are clearly aimed at design-conscious buyers who want something more distinctive than stainless steel or basic white.
The induction hob and multiple cooking functions will appeal to confident home cooks who like control and speed. Instant heat, boost functions on all five zones and features like fan grilling and defrost give you plenty of flexibility.
Budget-wise, this is not an entry-level appliance. It suits those prepared to invest in a long-term centrepiece for a busy kitchen, rather than someone kitting out a first flat or looking for the cheapest way into a range cooker.
The combination of three ovens and a separate full-width electric grill gives you outstanding flexibility. You can roast in the multifunction main cavity, bake in the large fan oven and still have the grill free for finishing or sides.
Five induction zones with boost on each one make everyday cooking fast and efficient. Induction responds quickly to temperature changes, heats only the pan and offers useful safety benefits such as pan detection and residual heat indicators.
Cleaning is well thought through. Catalytic stay-clean liners in the main cavity help break down grease as you cook, while the other ovens use easy-clean enamel to stop spills baking on. For a cooker this size, that makes a real difference over time.
Useful usability touches include the Handyrack for safer, easier access to roasts, telescopic shelf runners, automatic safety shut-off, child lock on the hob and a solid-feeling Catch-rite door fixture.
Build quality and specification are strong, with A-rated ovens, large capacities and a two-year manufacturer warranty backing up Rangemaster’s reputation.
The price is firmly premium, so you’re paying a significant amount for the design and spec. If you simply need a big cooker rather than a statement piece, there are cheaper 100cm options.
Despite being a high-end model, there’s no full-featured electronic display or fully programmable timer in the modern sense. You do get an electronic timer, but some buyers may expect a clearer display or more automation at this level.
Only the main cavity has catalytic liners; the other ovens rely on enamel, so they will still need manual cleaning. There’s also no storage drawer, which some range cookers offer for trays and tins.
The solid doors do not include viewing windows, so you need to open the oven to check progress, which can drop the temperature slightly and will not suit everyone.
Day to day, the Elise feels like a serious but straightforward bit of kit. The front-mounted rotary controls are traditional and easy to understand, and the layout is intuitive: main oven low, secondary oven to the right, dedicated grill in the top left.
The induction hob is a highlight in daily cooking. Pans come up to temperature quickly, the boost function is handy for boiling water in a hurry, and the glass surface is easy to wipe down once it cools. Pan detection and automatic safety shut-off add peace of mind, especially in busy family kitchens.
Oven space is generous and usable. The 79-litre multifunction main oven with two shelves and telescopic runners makes it easy to slide heavy trays in and out, while the 82-litre fan oven on the right is ideal when you need consistent heat across multiple shelves. The top-left grill cavity is ready whenever you just need to toast or brown something without heating a full oven.
Cleaning routines are relatively light-touch. The catalytic liners in the main oven help reduce baked-on grime if you regularly take the oven up to higher temperatures, and the enamel interiors in the other cavities resist staining. You will still need the occasional deeper clean, but there’s far less scrubbing than with bare steel interiors.
Installation requires hard wiring by a qualified electrician and a suitable 45-amp supply, so it’s not a plug-and-play upgrade. Adjustable feet allow you to line it up neatly with your worktops for a fitted, built-in look.
As a cooking platform, the Elise ELS100EIMG is very capable. The main multifunction oven offers seven cooking functions, including conventional heat, fan-assisted modes and a defrost setting. That gives you good control whether you are slow-roasting, baking or cooking frozen food.
Both the main and secondary ovens carry an A energy rating, which is reassuring given the overall size. The main 79-litre cavity and the 82-litre secondary oven both have interior lights so you can see food clearly, and fan assistance in each helps deliver even results across multiple shelves.
The dedicated 25-litre top-left grill cavity uses a full-width variable electric grill rated at 2300W, so it has plenty of punch for quick browning or grilling. Being separate, it frees up the main ovens entirely for baking and roasting.
On the hob, five induction zones cover small to large pans, all with boost capability. Power ranges from 1.15kW on the smaller zone up to 1.85kW on the larger ones, which is ample for everyday cooking, and the instant response typical of induction helps prevent boil-overs and burnt food. Safety is well covered with child lock, pan detection and residual heat indicators.
Convenience features like the Handyrack, telescopic shelves, Easy-Clean enamel and stay-clean liners show that some thought has gone into real-world use, not just headline specs. You do miss out on smart connectivity or advanced touch-screen controls, but many buyers will prefer the reliability and simplicity of traditional knobs and straightforward timers.
At this price, the Elise ELS100EIMG sits clearly in the premium bracket for electric range cookers. You are paying for a mix of strong build quality, generous capacity, the speed and efficiency of induction and a distinctive aesthetic that will suit high-spec kitchens.
When you factor in three A-rated ovens, a high-quality induction hob with five boosted zones, safety features and cleaning aids like catalytic liners, the specification goes beyond many cheaper alternatives. It feels more like a long-term investment than a stop-gap appliance.
The very strong owner rating, backed by a large number of reviews, suggests that buyers generally feel they got what they paid for in terms of performance and reliability. If you simply want the lowest-cost 100cm range, this won’t be it, but if you value design, capacity and an induction hob, the overall value proposition is convincing.
The Rangemaster Elise ELS100EIMG is a highly capable, beautifully finished electric range cooker that will suit serious home cooks and busy households. Its trio of spacious ovens, powerful full-width grill and responsive five-zone induction hob make it easy to juggle big meals and multiple courses.
Cleaning is relatively painless for such a large cooker, and thoughtful touches like the Handyrack, telescopic shelves and strong safety features help it fit seamlessly into everyday family life. The mineral green finish and traditional styling turn it into a centrepiece rather than just another appliance.
The main caveats are the premium price, the lack of viewing windows in the oven doors and the absence of some of the more modern digital frills. If you want a smart, app-connected cooker, this is not it. But if you prioritise capacity, induction performance and classic Rangemaster character, it is an excellent – and well-loved – choice.
