The Rangemaster Professional Plus FX PROP90FXDFFCY/C is a 90cm dual fuel range cooker that mixes a professional-style look with a genuinely practical feature set. With a powerful 5-burner gas hob on top and a large multifunction electric oven below, it’s clearly aimed at keen cooks who want control and capacity.
Rangemaster is a trusted British brand in range cookers, and this model feels very much in that premium mould. The striking cranberry and chrome finish, triple-glazed oven door and cast iron pan supports all help it look and feel like a centrepiece in a modern kitchen.
Backed by an excellent 4.7 out of 5 rating from over 300 owners, it’s a well-proven choice for households that cook a lot and don’t want to compromise on flexibility or build quality.
This 90cm Rangemaster is ideal for busy family kitchens and enthusiastic home cooks who regularly juggle several dishes at once. The generous 114-litre oven and 5-burner hob give you the space to roast, bake and simmer without feeling cramped.
If you like the responsiveness of gas on the hob but prefer the even heat and flexibility of an electric oven, the dual fuel setup is a strong fit. The multifunction oven with seven cooking modes and an electronic programmable timer will appeal to confident cooks who want more than a basic single-function oven.
It’s best suited to medium to large kitchens where a 90cm appliance can be accommodated comfortably. The cranberry and chrome styling makes it a statement piece, so it works particularly well in open-plan or showpiece kitchens where the cooker is on display.
This is a premium purchase rather than a budget buy, so it makes most sense if you’ll genuinely take advantage of the extra capacity, the wok burner and the ability to split the cavity rather than just needing a simple cooker for occasional use.
The standout strength of this Rangemaster is its sheer flexibility. The huge 114-litre multifunction oven can handle everything from big Sunday roasts to multiple trays of baking, and the energy-saving divider lets you convert it into two separate cooking zones when you don’t need the full capacity.
On the hob, the five gas burners, including a powerful triple-crown wok burner, give plenty of control whether you’re searing steaks, stir-frying at high heat or just gently simmering sauces. Sturdy cast iron pan supports keep cookware stable and add to the professional feel.
Day-to-day convenience is well considered. The easy-clean enamel interior helps stop grease clinging to the sides, so a quick wipe is usually enough after cooking. Telescopic shelf runners make it easier and safer to check dishes or baste roasts without fully pulling trays out.
Safety and build quality are also strong points, with flame failure devices on the hob, a triple-glazed door to keep heat in, and Rangemaster’s Catch-rite door fixture for a solid, reassuring close. The 2-year manufacturer warranty adds extra peace of mind on a high-value appliance.
Despite its strengths, there are a few compromises to be aware of. The price places it firmly in the premium bracket for a 90cm cooker, so if you won’t use the large capacity, multifunction modes or wok burner, you may find better value in a simpler model.
Cleaning, while easier than bare metal, is not as low-maintenance as some rivals because there are no catalytic or pyrolytic liners. You’ll still need to put in a bit of elbow grease periodically, especially if you roast or grill a lot.
The cooker needs both a Gas Safe engineer for installation and a hard-wired 32-amp electrical connection, which adds to the overall setup cost. There’s no child lock on the controls, and no residual heat indicators, so households with small children may want to take extra care.
Finally, although there is a dual-circuit electric grill within the main cavity, there isn’t a separate dedicated grill compartment, so you’re sharing space with the main oven when grilling and baking around the same time.
Living with the Professional Plus FX feels reassuringly straightforward for a cooker of this size. The rotary controls are clear and chunky, and automatic ignition on the hob means you simply turn and light without juggling matches or lighters. The LED programmable timer is easy to set, so timing roasts or baking is simple even if you’re not a gadget enthusiast.
The large, triple-glazed door and bright interior light make it easy to keep an eye on food without opening the oven and losing heat. Telescopic shelf runners are a real everyday bonus, especially with heavy trays – you can slide them out part-way to check or baste without worrying about tipping.
Cleaning is manageable thanks to the smooth enamel interior and energy-saving divider, which means you’re often only cleaning half the cavity if you cook smaller meals. However, without self-cleaning liners you’ll still want to wipe spills promptly. The flat, Teppanyaki-style griddle is handy for quick breakfasts or searing, and lifts off the hob for straightforward cleaning.
Because this is a 90cm range, you’ll need adequate space around it and good ventilation above – note the 75cm minimum distance to a cooker hood. Once installed, though, the combination of gas hob control and electric oven consistency makes daily cooking feel responsive and predictable.
Performance is a clear strong suit. The 5-burner gas hob offers a burner power range from 1kW to 4kW, so you can move from gentle melting to fierce, wok-ready heat in seconds. The triple crown wok burner, especially when paired with the optional wok cradle, is ideal for fast stir-fries and searing where high, even heat matters.
The 114-litre main oven is both large and versatile. As a multifunction cavity with seven functions, it supports fan-assisted cooking, conventional top-and-bottom heat, bottom-only heat and defrost, along with a dual-circuit electric grill. This means you can tailor heat to the dish – crisping the top of a lasagne, slow-cooking casseroles or evenly baking multiple trays at once.
An energy-saving panel (oven divider) is one of the standout features. It effectively turns the vast cavity into two separate cooking zones, so you can run a smaller space for everyday meals, saving energy and reducing preheat times, while still having the option of full capacity for bigger occasions.
The A-rated energy efficiency, both for fan and conventional modes, is respectable for such a large oven. Triple-glazed glass helps keep heat in, improving both safety and efficiency. Practical extras such as telescopic shelves, a large storage drawer, Teppanyaki-style griddle and automatic safety shut-off round out a comprehensive feature set.
While it lacks more advanced smart features like Wi-Fi connectivity or pyrolytic cleaning, the fundamentals of power, capacity, safety and flexibility are all well covered, which is what most home cooks will notice day-to-day.
At this price point, the Professional Plus FX sits in the upper tier of 90cm dual fuel range cookers. You’re paying for a combination of brand reputation, build quality, sizeable capacity and a genuinely flexible cooking setup, rather than cutting-edge smart tech.
The strong 4.7/5 owner rating from more than 300 reviews suggests that most buyers feel they’ve had their money’s worth in real-world use. The large oven, energy-saving divider, powerful wok burner and quality cast iron supports are features usually associated with more expensive, chef-oriented appliances.
If you simply want a basic cooker for light use, this will feel like overkill. But if you cook often, entertain regularly, or want your range to be a long-term investment piece in the kitchen, the blend of performance, usability and the 2-year manufacturer warranty makes the price easier to justify.
Overall, it offers good value within the premium segment: not cheap, but well specified and well liked by owners, with no glaring weaknesses that undermine the investment.
The Rangemaster Professional Plus FX PROP90FXDFFCY/C is a thoughtfully designed 90cm dual fuel range cooker that delivers on the fundamentals: a powerful, spacious oven, a responsive gas hob and a robust, attractive build. The energy-saving oven divider, triple-crown wok burner and Teppanyaki griddle add genuine versatility rather than gimmicks.
It’s not the lowest-maintenance cooker to clean, and installation requires both a Gas Safe engineer and an electrician, so the total cost of ownership is firmly on the premium side. There’s also no separate grill cavity or child lock, which some families may miss.
For keen home cooks and busy households who will make full use of its capacity and flexibility, though, this Rangemaster is an excellent choice. If you’re upgrading a kitchen centrepiece and want something that looks the part and cooks beautifully day after day, it deserves to be high on your shortlist.
