The Rangemaster Elise ELS110DFFRD is a 110cm dual fuel range cooker that aims squarely at keen home cooks and busy households. With two full-sized electric ovens, a separate electric grill and a six-burner gas hob, it is built for people who regularly cook multiple dishes at once.
Rangemaster sits at the premium end of the range-cooker market, and this Elise model reflects that in both its specification and its bold cherry red finish. It is not a budget buy, but it brings professional-style flexibility into a domestic kitchen, backed up by thoughtful touches like catalytic liners and a built-in Handyrack.
Owners rate it extremely highly, with an average score of 4.9 out of 5 from hundreds of reviews. That kind of consistency suggests the Elise doesn’t just look the part, it delivers in day-to-day use as well.
This is a cooker for serious home cooks, growing families and anyone who entertains regularly. With two 79-litre ovens plus a separate grill, you can roast a large joint, bake trays of veg and finish off a crisp topping all at once, without juggling shelves.
Its 110cm width and six-burner gas hob make most sense in a medium to large kitchen where space is not at a premium. If you are renovating a family kitchen or upgrading from a standard 60cm cooker, the Elise will feel like a genuine step up in capacity and flexibility.
Given the price tag and feature set, it suits buyers looking for a long-term investment rather than a quick replacement. If you enjoy cooking from scratch, batch cooking for the week or hosting Sunday lunches and Christmas dinners, you will actually use the extra ovens, wok burner and Handyrack.
If you live in a small flat, cook simple meals for one or two people, or are working with a tight budget, this model is likely to be more than you need, both in size and spend.
The standout strength of the Elise ELS110DFFRD is sheer cooking capacity. Two large 79-litre electric ovens, plus a separate 25-litre electric grill and a storage compartment, give you four distinct cavities to play with. It is ideal for big family meals, batch cooking or hosting.
The main multifunction oven offers seven cooking modes, including fan, conventional and base heat, which means better control over everything from slow roasts to pizzas and delicate bakes. Having a second full-size fan oven on top makes timing much easier when you need different temperatures.
On the hob, six gas burners, including a powerful wok burner and sturdy cast iron pan supports, provide lots of space and stability for multiple pans. The burner power range up to 4kW means you can go from a gentle simmer to a fierce stir-fry quickly.
Cleaning is helped by catalytic stay-clean liners in the main oven and easy-clean enamel in the others, reducing the elbow grease required. Extras like the Handyrack, telescopic shelf runners and automatic ignition all make everyday use smoother and safer.
Finally, the bold cherry red finish and traditional styling give it real presence in the kitchen, while the strong user rating suggests the build quality and reliability live up to the premium look.
The most obvious drawback is cost: this is a premium range cooker and will be out of reach for tighter budgets, especially once you factor in professional gas and electrical installation.
Despite the high-end positioning, there is no true programmable timer or digital display for automated cooking schedules. If you like to set start and stop times, you may find the controls a little old-school.
Only the main oven has catalytic liners, so the second oven and grill rely on enamel interiors and will still need regular manual cleaning, particularly if you cook a lot of roasts or use the grill heavily.
There is also no child lock on the control panel and no residual heat indicators on the hob, so families with very young children will need to be particularly careful. The 110cm width means it simply will not fit in smaller kitchens, and it requires hard wiring plus a Gas Safe engineer, which adds to overall setup cost and complexity.
Day to day, the Elise feels like a solid, traditional range with well-thought-out modern touches. Rotary dials keep the controls straightforward, and automatic ignition on the hob means lighting burners is quick and reliable.
The layout is logical: the main multifunction oven sits bottom left, the second fan oven is top right, the full-width electric grill is top left, and storage is bottom right. Once you are used to this arrangement, it is easy to dedicate each cavity to a different task, which greatly reduces the need to shuffle dishes around.
The Handyrack mounted on the main oven door is particularly handy for roasting – you can pull the joint out with the door, baste or check it safely, and slide it back in without fully removing the heavy tray. Telescopic shelf runners further reduce the risk of spills when you are dealing with big roasting tins or casserole dishes.
Cleaning the main oven is less of a chore thanks to catalytic liners on the sides, which absorb and break down grease during normal cooking. The enamel interiors in the other cavities still need a wipe-down, but the smooth surfaces help. With no glass lid to contend with and cast iron pan supports that lift off, the hob area is fairly straightforward to keep on top of.
Because it is a large, all-metal appliance, you should assume it feels substantial and will be a two-person job to manoeuvre into position, reinforcing the need for professional installation and careful planning of your kitchen layout.
Performance is a strong point for the Elise. Both main and second ovens offer a generous 79 litres of space each, with A ratings for energy efficiency. The main multifunction oven’s seven settings, including fan, conventional, bottom heat and defrost, give fine control over different cooking styles. Fan assistance in both large ovens means more even heat distribution and quicker preheating than simple static ovens.
The third cavity is a full-width electric grill with variable control, ideal for browning lasagnes, grilling bacon or making quick cheese on toast without firing up a whole oven. You can grill with the door open as designed, and the dedicated 25-litre space means you are not sacrificing shelf space in the main ovens just to toast something.
On the hob, six gas burners cover a good spread of pan sizes, backed by a 1–4kW power range. The dedicated wok burner is perfect for stir-fries and fast boiling, while smaller burners handle gentle simmering. Cast iron pan supports give a sturdy, professional feel and keep pans stable, which is reassuring when every burner is in use.
Safety and convenience features are sensibly covered: there is automatic safety shut-off, a flame failure safety device on the hob, and robust Catch-rite door fixtures to keep doors closing firmly. Interior lighting in both main ovens makes it easy to check progress without opening the doors, helping to maintain even temperatures.
While it avoids flashy connected features or touchscreen controls, the Elise focuses on dependable hardware: large capacities, versatile cooking modes and a robust hob setup. The two-year manufacturer warranty for domestic use adds peace of mind that it is built to last.
This is clearly a premium-priced dual fuel range cooker, positioned towards the top end of what most households would consider spending on a cooker. You are paying for brand heritage, build quality, generous capacity and a genuinely versatile cooking set-up rather than headline-grabbing smart features.
Look at what you get for the money and the value proposition becomes clearer: two full-sized ovens, a dedicated grill, six-burner gas hob with wok burner, catalytic liners in the main cavity, Handyrack, telescopic runners and solid safety features. Many cheaper models lack at least some of these conveniences or drop down to smaller oven sizes.
The exceptionally strong user rating of 4.9 out of 5, based on a very large number of reviews, suggests that owners feel it justifies the outlay over time. If you cook a lot and will take advantage of the extra capacity and flexibility, the Elise represents good long-term value. If your cooking is more occasional or your kitchen is small, a simpler, cheaper model may make more financial sense.
The Rangemaster Elise ELS110DFFRD is a serious bit of kit for a serious home kitchen. It delivers excellent capacity, flexible dual fuel cooking and thoughtful design touches that make entertaining and family meals far less of a juggling act. The main multifunction oven, second fan oven and powerful six-burner hob work together to handle almost any recipe you can throw at them.
It is not perfect: the lack of a fully programmable timer, limited catalytic coverage and the need for professional installation are worth bearing in mind, and the price puts it firmly in the premium bracket. However, these niggles sit against a backdrop of strong owner satisfaction, robust safety features and a specification that outpaces many more basic ranges.
If you have the space, the budget and a genuine love of cooking, the Elise ELS110DFFRD is a compelling choice that should serve as the heart of your kitchen for years. If you mainly reheat ready meals or only cook for one or two people, a smaller, more affordable cooker will almost certainly be a better fit.
