The Rangemaster Professional Deluxe PDL110DFFSL/C is a 110cm-wide dual fuel range cooker designed for serious home cooks who want a statement appliance as well as rock-solid performance. With two large 79-litre ovens, a separate grill and a 5-burner gas hob, it’s built to handle everything from midweek suppers to big family get-togethers.
Rangemaster is a trusted British name in range cookers, and this Professional Deluxe model sits firmly at the premium end of the market, both in terms of price and specification. The slate and graphite finish gives it a contemporary, upmarket look that suits modern kitchens as much as classic ones.
Backed by an impressive 4.7 out of 5 rating from over 700 owner reviews, it’s clearly a cooker that delivers in real homes. The question is whether its feature set and design justify the investment for your household.
This Rangemaster is ideal for larger households, keen cooks and anyone who entertains regularly. The twin 79-litre ovens mean you can roast in one cavity and batch-bake or reheat in the other without juggling shelves or compromising on temperature.
It’s a strong match for buyers planning a premium or fully fitted kitchen where looks matter as much as performance. The 110cm width, cast iron pan supports and slate finish are designed to be a focal point, so it suits spacious kitchens rather than compact flats or galley layouts.
Dual fuel makes it especially appealing if you love the control and responsiveness of gas on the hob but prefer the consistency of electric ovens for baking and roasting. Features like the wok burner, multizone and glide-out grill will appeal to confident cooks who enjoy trying different techniques.
Because it needs both hard-wired electrical connection and a Gas Safe installation, it’s best suited to buyers planning a renovation or a kitchen refit, rather than a simple like-for-like swap on a tight budget.
The standout strength here is sheer capacity. Two full-size 79-litre ovens plus a separate 25-litre grill and a storage compartment give you four useful cavities, so cooking a full Sunday roast with sides, pudding and garlic bread on the go is genuinely practical.
The dual fuel layout is well thought through: five gas burners with cast iron pan supports include a powerful wok burner and a flexible multizone, giving you precise heat control for everything from gentle simmering to searing. The automatic ignition and flame failure safety devices add to the sense of quality and reassurance.
Both main ovens benefit from catalytic liners on the sides, which help break down grease during normal cooking, cutting cleaning time noticeably compared with bare enamel. Easy-clean enamel in the grill cavity also helps keep the dirtiest area under control.
Everyday usability is boosted by clever touches such as the Handyrack (a tray that clips onto the door so you can check a roast without reaching into the oven), telescopic shelf runners, a programmable electronic timer and a smooth glide-out grill. These features collectively make the cooker feel genuinely premium.
Finally, the robust build, triple-glazed doors and two-year manufacturer warranty underline that this is designed as a long-term purchase rather than a stop-gap appliance.
The most obvious downside is the price: this is a premium range cooker and will be overkill for smaller households or those who simply don’t need this much capacity.
While catalytic liners make cleaning easier, they only cover the sides of the main and second ovens. The back wall, floor and door still need a proper wipe-down, so it’s not a fully self-cleaning solution.
There’s no control panel lock, which might be a concern in homes with curious young children, and neither the second oven nor the grill cavities have interior lights, making it a little harder to check progress without opening the door.
Installation is more involved than a standard cooker: it needs hard wiring to a suitable 32-amp supply and a Gas Safe engineer for the hob, so you must factor in those extra costs and planning. An LPG conversion is possible, but the kit is not included.
Day to day, the Professional Deluxe feels reassuringly solid. Rotary controls are clearly laid out along the front, and the LED clock and programmable timer make it easy to set start and stop times for roasts or slow cooks. Automatic ignition on the hob means you can light burners with one hand while holding a pan in the other.
The 110cm width gives generous space between pans on the hob, and the cast iron pan supports create a stable surface for heavy cookware. The dedicated wok burner is great for stir-fries and fast boiling, while the multizone adds flexibility for griddles or larger pans.
Inside, the main multifunction oven offers multiple modes, while the second fan oven is straightforward and reliable for even baking. Telescopic runners mean you can slide trays out smoothly without tipping, and the Handyrack makes basting and checking a roast markedly easier.
Cleaning is less of a chore than on basic cookers thanks to catalytic liners and easy-clean enamel, though you will still need to wipe down non-lined surfaces. Triple-glazed doors stay cooler to the touch than single-glazed ones, which is reassuring in busy family kitchens.
The storage compartment in the bottom right is genuinely handy for keeping trays and tins close to hand, freeing up other kitchen storage. The one compromise is that this cavity doesn’t heat, so it’s not a warming drawer.
Performance centres on the two 79-litre electric ovens. The main cavity is multifunctional, offering eight different cooking modes so you can tailor heat to the dish, whether that’s traditional baking, roasting or defrosting. The second oven is a dedicated fan oven, ideal for batch baking or cooking at a consistent temperature across multiple shelves.
Both large ovens carry an A energy rating, and the fan-assisted cavities have respectable consumption figures, which is reassuring given their generous size. Even heat distribution makes it easier to get predictable results, particularly for baking.
Up top, the five-burner gas hob offers a 1–4 kW power range, from gentle simmer burners through to a serious wok burner for high-heat cooking. The multizone expands your options with specialist pans or griddle plates, while cast iron supports ensure durability and stability.
The dedicated third cavity is a variable electric grill with a glide-out tray, which makes grilling toast, cheese on toast or finishing off a dish much safer and more convenient. Open-door grilling and variable control give you fine adjustment of browning.
Thoughtful features round out the package: automatic safety shut-off, flame failure devices, height-adjustable legs for levelling, triple-glazed doors, catalytic liners and easy-clean enamel. Together they create a cooker that feels both well-equipped and robust enough for heavy use in a busy home.
This Rangemaster clearly sits at the higher end of the price scale for dual fuel range cookers, but its specification matches its premium positioning. You’re paying for a substantial 110cm appliance with two genuinely large ovens, a separate grill, a storage compartment and a versatile five-burner hob.
The strong owner feedback – a 4.7/5 score from hundreds of reviews – suggests that most buyers feel the performance and build quality justify the outlay. Features like the multifunction main oven, catalytic liners, Handyrack, telescopic shelves and glide-out grill are the kinds of touches that cheaper models often skip.
If you simply need a basic range to fill a space, this may feel expensive. However, if you’re investing in a long-term kitchen upgrade and want something that’s a pleasure to use every day, the Professional Deluxe offers convincing value for those who will make full use of its capacity and features.
The Rangemaster Professional Deluxe PDL110DFFSL/C is a superb choice for households that take their cooking seriously and have the space – and budget – for a premium 110cm range. It combines generous capacity, versatile dual fuel performance and thoughtful usability features in a stylish slate finish.
Its main strengths are the twin 79-litre ovens, powerful and flexible gas hob, separate glide-out grill, and genuinely helpful details such as catalytic liners, Handyrack and telescopic shelves. Owner ratings back up the impression of a well-engineered, long-lasting cooker.
It isn’t cheap, and the lack of oven lights in all cavities and absence of a control lock are minor niggles. But if you’re planning a high-spec kitchen and want a dependable, feature-rich range that can handle everything from everyday family meals to big celebrations, this Rangemaster deserves to be high on your shortlist.
