The Rangemaster Nexus NEX110DFFSL/C is a 110cm dual fuel range cooker aimed squarely at busy family kitchens and passionate home cooks. With two full-sized electric ovens, a separate grill and a warming compartment, plus a generous seven-burner mixed-fuel hob, it’s built for cooking big meals without compromise.
Rangemaster is a well-established British name in range cookers, and this model feels every inch the premium option, from its slate finish to the cast-iron pan supports and triple-glazed doors. At this price it sits toward the higher end of the dual fuel range cooker market, but the specification reflects that.
Owners clearly rate it: an average score of 4.9 out of 5 from 99 reviews suggests that, in real kitchens, it delivers on both performance and reliability.
This Nexus is ideal for larger households, entertainers and anyone who regularly juggles several dishes at once. Twin 79-litre ovens mean you can roast a joint in one cavity while baking side dishes or desserts in the other, without worrying about space or mixing cooking styles.
It’s a strong fit for serious home cooks who want the precision of electric ovens with the fast, responsive control of gas and electric zones on the hob. The inclusion of a large wok burner and a multizone makes it particularly appealing if you cook a mix of everyday family meals and more adventurous dishes.
Given the premium price tag and the need for both a Gas Safe engineer and an electrician for installation, it’s better suited to a long-term kitchen upgrade than a first-time, budget-conscious buy. If you’re planning a new kitchen or a major renovation and want a centrepiece range that feels built to last, this is the sort of model to shortlist.
You’ll also appreciate it if you value low-maintenance ownership. Catalytic liners in both main ovens, easy-clean enamel in the grill and solid build features like the Catch-rite door fixture mean less time scrubbing and more time enjoying the food.
The standout advantage is capacity. Two large 79-litre ovens plus a separate 25-litre grill and a warming compartment give you four usable cavities. That’s excellent for big Sunday roasts, Christmas dinners or batch cooking.
The mixed-fuel 7-burner hob is very versatile. You get a wide spread of burner sizes up to 4kW, including a powerful wok burner for stir-fries, along with a multizone area for griddles or larger pans. Cast-iron pan supports provide a stable, robust cooking surface.
Both main ovens have catalytic liners on the sides, helping to break down grease during normal cooking so they only need a light wipe, while the grill uses easy-clean enamel. For a cooker this size, that’s a big help in keeping cleaning under control.
Thoughtful usability touches include the Handyrack, which swings the roasting tray out with the door so you can baste and check food more safely, telescopic shelf runners for easier tray handling, and triple-glazed doors that help keep heat in and the front cooler to touch.
The dual A-rated ovens, programmable electronic timer, automatic ignition and flame failure safety devices round out a spec sheet that feels appropriately premium. With a 4.9/5 customer rating, user satisfaction is clearly very high.
The obvious drawback is cost: this Nexus is firmly in premium territory, so it won’t suit tighter budgets or rentals where you may not see long-term benefit.
Although the main ovens have catalytic liners on the sides, the backs and doors still require manual cleaning, and the grill cavity only has an enamel interior rather than self-cleaning liners. Keeping a four-cavity range spotless will still take some effort.
There’s no child lock on the control panel and no residual heat indicators on the hob surface, so households with very young children will need to be extra mindful. The grill also requires the door to remain open when in use, which some users may find old-fashioned compared with closed-door grill systems.
At 32 amps and nearly 10kW electrical connection, plus the need for a Gas Safe engineer and a separate LPG kit if required, installation is neither simple nor cheap. This is not a plug-in upgrade and may demand electrical and gas work if your kitchen isn’t already prepared.
Day to day, the Nexus NEX110DFFSL/C is designed to feel reassuringly solid and straightforward. Rotary controls, automatic ignition and a clear LED programmable timer make setting up cooking times intuitive, even if you’re not especially tech-minded.
The main multifunction oven offers eight cooking modes, including fan, conventional heat and defrost, so you can match the setting to the dish rather than constantly adjusting shelves and temperatures. The second fan oven provides even heat across the full 79-litre space, which is excellent for baking multiple trays of biscuits or roasting vegetables evenly.
On the hob, the seven burners and mixed fuel layout give you plenty of flexibility: you can simmer sauces gently on the smaller burners while pushing out maximum heat on the 4kW wok burner. Cast-iron pan supports make sliding heavy pans around easier, and the multizone is handy when you want a griddle plate or a larger cooking surface.
The Handyrack and telescopic runners really help when dealing with heavy roasting tins. Being able to pull food towards you securely reduces the risk of spills and burns. Triple-glazed doors and well-positioned interior lights in the main ovens make it easy to check progress without opening the doors and losing heat.
Cleaning is manageable for such a big cooker. The catalytic liners take care of much of the everyday grease build-up in both main ovens, while the enamel grill cavity and smooth hob surface can be wiped down with regular cleaners. It’s not completely maintenance-free, but it’s far less daunting than an all-enamel interior of this size would be.
Performance is a clear strong point. Each of the two main ovens offers a generous 79-litre capacity with an A energy rating, so you can cook large meals efficiently. The multifunction main oven combines fan assistance, conventional heat and various element combinations, giving you the flexibility to handle everything from slow roasts to crisp pastries.
The second oven is a straightforward fan oven: simple but very effective for even cooking across multiple shelves. With two shelves in each main oven and telescopic runners in key positions, you can make full use of the height without feeling cramped.
On the hob side, the 1–4kW burner range ensures you have both gentle and fierce heat available. The dedicated wok burner makes quick work of stir-fries and searing, while smaller burners cater for delicate sauces. The mixed-fuel “multizone” area provides extra flexibility for griddles, fish kettles or larger pans that don’t sit neatly on a single burner.
Safety and build quality are well covered. Flame failure devices cut the gas if a flame goes out, while automatic safety shut-off adds further peace of mind. Catch-rite door fixtures help the doors close securely, and triple glazing improves both heat retention and surface temperature control.
Convenience features like catalytic liners, easy-clean enamel, the Handyrack, height-adjustable legs and an electronic programmable timer round things off. You don’t get smart connectivity or complex automation, but you do get a proven, robust set of features that genuinely improve day-to-day cooking rather than adding gimmicks.
As a large 110cm dual fuel range cooker with premium build and a strong feature set, the Nexus NEX110DFFSL/C is priced towards the top end of the category. You are paying for brand reputation, British manufacture and a specification that comfortably covers family cooking and entertaining.
When you factor in twin 79-litre ovens, a separate full-width grill, a warming compartment, a seven-burner mixed-fuel hob and plenty of helpful touches like catalytic liners, telescopic runners and the Handyrack, the overall package does justify the asking price for those who will use its capacity.
The 4.9/5 average rating from 99 reviews is a strong indicator that owners feel they’ve got what they paid for, both in terms of performance and reliability. The two-year manufacturer warranty is decent, though not exceptional at this price; some rivals offer longer cover.
If you simply need a basic cooker, this will feel like overkill. But if you’re investing in a range as the focal point of a busy kitchen and plan to keep it for many years, its combination of capacity, versatility and build quality makes it a sound, if premium, purchase.
The Rangemaster Nexus NEX110DFFSL/C is an impressive dual fuel range cooker that delivers on the things that matter: large, flexible cooking space, strong and even oven performance, and a genuinely usable hob layout. Its thoughtful design touches and easy-clean features make it well suited to the realities of family life.
It isn’t cheap, and installation is more involved than with a standard cooker, so it’s best viewed as a long-term investment rather than a stopgap. The lack of a control panel lock and residual heat indicators may also give some families pause, but these are relatively minor in the context of an otherwise very complete package.
If you’re creating a serious cooking space and want a stylish, slate-finished centrepiece from a trusted brand, this Nexus should be high on your shortlist. Heavy cooks, large households and keen entertainers will get the most value from it; lighter users may be better served by a smaller, simpler model at a lower price point.
