The Rangemaster Nexus SE NEXSE110EISL/C is a 110cm premium electric range cooker with a five-zone induction hob, twin full-size ovens and dedicated grill and slow-cook cavities. Finished in a contemporary slate graphite, it is designed to be a statement piece as much as a workhorse.
Rangemaster is a respected name in range cookers, and this model leans firmly towards the high end of the market. It is aimed at households that cook a lot and want the flexibility and control you simply do not get from a standard 60cm cooker.
With a 4.9 out of 5 rating from 99 reviews, owners are overwhelmingly positive, which backs up the strong spec sheet and suggests it performs as well as it looks.
This Nexus SE is ideal for larger households, keen home cooks and anyone who regularly juggles roasts, baking and midweek meals at the same time. The two huge 79-litre ovens, plus separate grill and slow-cook oven, give you the sort of flexibility that makes entertaining much less stressful.
It suits buyers looking for a premium centrepiece rather than a budget option. The price reflects its size, induction hob and extensive feature list, so it makes most sense if you will genuinely use the extra capacity and functions.
If you are upgrading from a standard freestanding cooker and want faster heat-up times, better efficiency and safer, more responsive hob control, the induction hotplate and Rapid Response™ preheat will be a real step up.
It is less suited to compact kitchens or occasional cooks who simply do not need four cavities and a 110cm footprint – in a smaller home it may feel like overkill, both in size and spend.
The sheer cooking capacity is a standout strength: two large 79-litre ovens mean you can roast, bake and batch cook all at once without compromise, while the separate 25-litre grill and 21-litre slow cook oven keep sides and low-and-slow dishes out of the way.
The five-zone induction hob offers fast, precise heat with pan detection and residual heat indicators for added safety. The bridge and multi-zone features give you flexibility for larger pans or a griddle, which is particularly handy when cooking for a crowd.
Rapid Response™ is genuinely useful, bringing the oven up to temperature around 30% faster than a typical fan oven, so you are not hanging around waiting to preheat on busy evenings.
Cleaning is made easier by catalytic stay-clean liners in the main and second cavities and easy-clean enamel elsewhere, reducing the amount of scrubbing needed after a big cook.
Thoughtful touches such as the Handyrack for safer basting, telescopic shelf runners, a glide-out grill and triple-glazed doors add to the sense of a well-designed, premium appliance.
This is a premium-priced range cooker, so it will not suit tighter budgets, especially if you will only occasionally make use of the extra ovens and hob zones.
Despite the high price, there is no dedicated pyrolytic self-cleaning function, so while the catalytic liners help, you will still need to do some manual cleaning, particularly in the grill cavity with its standard enamel interior.
There is no child lock on the control panel, which may be a consideration for households with very young children. You also need to ensure you have suitable induction-compatible cookware, which could mean additional upfront cost if you are moving from gas or an older electric hob.
Finally, installation is not plug-and-play: with a hefty 17,040W electrical load and 45-amp requirement, it must be hard-wired by a qualified electrician, adding to the overall cost.
In daily use, the Nexus SE feels like a serious but approachable bit of kit. Rotary controls and an LED programmable timer keep operation straightforward, while the triple-glazed doors help keep heat in and the kitchen a little cooler, even when both main ovens are running.
The induction hob is particularly user-friendly. It heats up pans almost instantly, and the precise control makes it easy to simmer sauces gently or bring a large pot to the boil without overshooting. Pan detection means zones only heat when cookware is present, which is reassuring from a safety and running-cost perspective.
The layout of the four cavities works well in practice. The bottom-left multifunction oven is your main workhorse, while the top-right fan oven doubles as a second full-size oven for batch cooking or big family dinners. The dedicated top-left grill on glide-out runners feels safer and more convenient than juggling a grill pan in one of the main ovens.
Cleaning routine maintenance is manageable. Catalytic liners in the two big ovens help break down grease during normal cooking, so a quick wipe once the oven has cooled is often enough. The smooth glass induction surface is also easy to wipe clean compared with gas burners, provided spills are dealt with promptly.
Performance-wise, the twin 79-litre ovens give you the flexibility to cook multiple dishes at different temperatures without compromise. The main cavity is multifunctional, offering eight cooking modes including fan-assisted, conventional heat and defrost, so you can tailor the heat to roasts, bakes or delicate desserts.
Both main ovens carry an A energy rating, with relatively modest energy consumption figures for their size, which helps keep running costs in check considering the capacity on offer. The dedicated slow cook oven in the fourth cavity is a nice touch, freeing up the main ovens while casseroles or pulled meats gently cook away in the background.
The induction hob’s five zones, with a power range from 1.15 to 3.2kW, provide strong, controllable heat. The multi-zone/bridge functionality lets you combine zones for larger cookware, ideal for griddles or big fish pans. Residual heat indicators remind you which areas are still hot, adding a layer of safety.
Convenience features are a strong suit. Rapid Response™ speeds up preheating significantly, the Handyrack lets you safely check and baste roasts without reaching into a hot oven, and telescopic shelf runners make it easier to get heavy trays in and out. Fan grilling and a full-width electric grill expand your options for crisping and browning.
Overall, the feature set goes well beyond a basic range cooker, with a clear focus on flexibility, speed and ease of handling large, complex meals.
This Rangemaster sits at the premium end of electric range cookers, and the price reflects that. You are paying for a 110cm footprint, twin full-size ovens, induction technology and a raft of convenience features, rather than just a larger version of a standard cooker.
For households that cook frequently, entertain often or batch cook to fill the freezer, the extra capacity and features can genuinely justify the spend. The efficient induction hob, A-rated ovens and catalytic liners all help reduce everyday hassle and running costs over time.
The excellent user feedback – a 4.9/5 score from 99 reviews – suggests that most owners feel they have had good value from the investment, particularly in terms of reliability, performance and ease of use. If you will regularly exploit the four cavities and five induction zones, it represents strong value within the premium bracket.
If you are a lighter user or have a smaller kitchen, a cheaper, narrower range or a standard 60cm cooker may make more financial sense, as it is the scale and specification that really underpin the value here.
The Rangemaster Nexus SE NEXSE110EISL/C is a highly capable, well thought-out electric range cooker that delivers serious capacity, rapid performance and a genuinely practical layout for busy family kitchens. The induction hob, twin 79-litre ovens, dedicated grill and slow cook oven combine to make it versatile enough for everything from quick midweek meals to big gatherings.
It is expensive and requires professional installation, and you will still need to do some cleaning despite the catalytic liners. The lack of a control panel lock may also matter to some families with young children.
If you are looking for a premium 110cm range that looks smart, cooks quickly and is packed with features that make everyday life easier, this Rangemaster is an excellent choice. Those with smaller spaces, tighter budgets or simpler cooking needs may be better served by a more modest model, but for serious home cooks it is hard to fault.
