A serious range cooker for busy family kitchens

The Rangemaster Nexus SE NEXSE110DFFBL/C is a 110cm dual fuel range cooker that’s firmly in the premium end of the market, aimed at cooks who want lots of space, versatility and a smart, contemporary look rather than a traditional farmhouse style.

With two full-size electric ovens, a separate electric grill, a dedicated slow cook oven and a seven‑burner gas hob, it’s designed to cope with everything from midweek meals to big family get‑togethers. Dual fuel gives you the responsiveness of gas on the hob and the consistency of electric ovens.

Backed by an excellent 4.9 out of 5 rating from well over a hundred reviews, this is clearly a cooker owners are very happy to live with, as long as they have the space – and the budget – for it.

Who this range cooker is best for

This model suits larger households, keen home cooks and anyone who entertains regularly. The two 79‑litre ovens, plus grill and slow cook oven, make it ideal if you’re often cooking several dishes at once, hosting Sunday roasts or preparing big seasonal meals.

It’s a premium choice rather than a budget buy, so it will appeal most if you see your cooker as the heart of the kitchen and are happy to invest in something you’ll use heavily for many years. The dual fuel setup and wok burner will particularly suit confident cooks who like to sear, stir‑fry and bake with precision.

If you’re planning a new open‑plan or family kitchen, the 110cm width and contemporary black and chrome styling make it a strong focal point. It’s less suitable for small galley kitchens or those who only cook occasionally; in those cases a smaller or simpler cooker would be more sensible.

It’s also a good fit for people who value convenience but still want proper cooking control: features like Rapid Response preheat, catalytic liners and the Handyrack help take the faff out of everyday use without dumbing anything down.

What we like

The sheer cooking capacity is a standout. Two large 79‑litre ovens, a separate full‑width electric grill and a 21‑litre slow cook oven mean you can roast, bake, grill and gently braise all at once without juggling trays.

The seven‑zone gas hob with sturdy cast‑iron pan supports gives you proper flexibility on top, including a powerful wok burner for high‑heat stir‑frying and searing. Multiple burner sizes and a multi‑zone area make it easier to match pans to the right heat level.

Rapid Response preheat in the main oven is genuinely useful in daily life, bringing the oven up to temperature faster so you’re not hanging around when you just want to get dinner started.

Cleaning is helped by catalytic liners in both main ovens and easy‑clean enamel in the grill, so grease is absorbed or wipes away more easily than in a basic enamel-only cooker.

Thoughtful extras like the glide‑out grill, telescopic shelf runners and Rangemaster’s Handyrack make it simpler and safer to check on food, baste roasts and slide trays in and out without wrestling with hot, heavy shelves.

The strong 4.9/5 user rating and 2‑year manufacturer warranty add confidence that this isn’t just about looks – owners clearly rate its reliability and day‑to‑day performance.

Where it could be better

This is an unapologetically premium cooker, so the price will be overkill if you don’t need the capacity or advanced features. You’re paying for the brand and versatility as much as the basic function of heating food.

There’s no pyrolytic self‑cleaning option, so while the catalytic liners reduce effort, you’ll still need to do some manual cleaning, especially in corners and around the grill cavity with its enamel interior.

It needs both hard‑wiring by an electrician and installation by a Gas Safe engineer, with no plug or gas hose supplied, so you should budget for professional fitting on top of the purchase price.

At 110cm wide and 64cm deep it demands a fair amount of kitchen space; if your layout is tight, the size and four‑door layout may feel imposing.

Everyday use

Day to day, the Nexus SE is designed to feel reassuringly solid and straightforward. Rotary controls, automatic ignition and clear LED display with an electronic programmable timer keep operation familiar, so there’s no steep learning curve before you can cook confidently.

Having two full‑size ovens is a real convenience. You can keep one on fan mode for even, all‑round cooking while using specific functions in the multifunction main oven, such as conventional top and bottom heat or bottom‑only for pastry and pizza bases. The separate grill, on its glide‑out carriage, makes quick breakfasts, cheese on toast or finishing off gratins very easy, without tying up an oven.

The slow cook oven is particularly handy if you work long days – you can load it in the morning and come back to tender stews or pulled meats, without having to tie up the main oven for hours. It also frees up the bigger ovens for other dishes when you’re entertaining.

On the hob, heavy cast‑iron pan supports feel stable when moving pans around, and the range of burner sizes, including the wok burner, lets you simmer, boil and sear side by side. Automatic safety shut‑off and flame failure devices add peace of mind, especially in busy family kitchens.

Cleaning isn’t entirely hands‑off, but catalytic liners on the sides of the main ovens help break down grease as you cook, and easy‑clean enamel in the grill cavity means spills don’t weld themselves on as quickly. Telescopic shelf runners and the Handyrack make it easier to reach hot dishes without stretching into the hot cavity.

Performance and features

Performance is where the Nexus SE earns its keep. The two 79‑litre electric ovens both carry an A energy rating, with fan assistance for even heat distribution, so trays of roast potatoes or multiple cakes cook more consistently than in a small, single‑oven cooker. The multifunction main cavity offers eight cooking functions, including fan, conventional, bottom‑only and top‑only heat, giving you the control you need for everything from sourdough to meringues.

Rapid Response preheat in the main oven shortens warm‑up times, which makes a real difference on busy weeknights. Rather than waiting around for a large cavity to heat, you can be loading your food in sooner and still get reliable results.

The hob’s burner power range of 1 to 4kW provides a good spread of heat levels. Lower‑powered burners are well suited to gentle simmering and melting, while the more powerful zones and wok burner deliver the intense heat needed for stir‑fries and fast searing. The multi‑zone area and warming zone expand your options further for keeping side dishes hot without overcooking.

Beyond raw performance, the Nexus SE is packed with usability features often only found on higher‑end ranges. The glide‑out grill makes monitoring toast or grilled fish simple, while telescopic shelf runners mean heavy trays slide smoothly without tipping. The Handyrack, which clips a roasting tray to the oven door, is particularly clever – you can check and baste joints at a comfortable height without having to lift them out.

Safety and convenience haven’t been overlooked either. Triple‑glazed oven doors help keep more heat in the cavity, automatic safety shut‑off and flame failure devices add reassurance, and the LED programmable timer lets you set cooking times precisely, so dishes are less likely to be forgotten in the oven.

Value for money

This Rangemaster clearly sits at the upper end of the price range for dual fuel range cookers, but the specification and build are in line with that ambition. You’re not just paying for sheer size; you’re paying for two genuinely full‑featured ovens, a separate grill, a dedicated slow cook oven and a generous, flexible gas hob.

For households that will use that capacity regularly, the combination of dual fuel flexibility, strong safety features, catalytic liners and thoughtful touches like the Handyrack and glide‑out grill helps justify the investment. The A/A energy rating also means running costs should stay reasonable for a cooker of this size.

The excellent 4.9/5 owner rating from a large number of reviews suggests that buyers generally feel they’ve had good value, particularly when you factor in the 2‑year manufacturer warranty. If you simply want a basic cooker to use occasionally, you can save money with a smaller, simpler model, but for serious home cooks who want a long‑term centrepiece, the Nexus SE offers strong value for what it delivers.

Our verdict

The Rangemaster Nexus SE NEXSE110DFFBL/C is a standout choice if you’re looking for a premium, contemporary‑styled range cooker with masses of capacity and genuine versatility. Two large ovens, a separate grill, a slow cook oven and a seven‑burner gas hob mean it can handle almost any cooking scenario, from family dinners to full‑on entertaining.

Features such as Rapid Response preheat, catalytic liners, the Handyrack, glide‑out grill and telescopic shelves make it not only powerful but genuinely pleasant to live with. Strong owner feedback and a solid 2‑year warranty further support its appeal as a long‑term kitchen investment.

It is, however, a big and relatively expensive appliance that requires professional installation, so it won’t be the right fit for smaller kitchens or tight budgets. If you’ve got the space, cook often and want a serious, dual fuel range that looks as good as it cooks, the Nexus SE 110 is very easy to recommend.
