The Rangemaster Professional Plus FX PROP90FXDFFGB/C is a 90cm dual fuel range cooker aimed squarely at keen home cooks who want gas on top and an electric multifunction oven below. Finished in black with chrome trim, it has a contemporary, professional look that suits modern kitchens as much as classic ones.
With a massive 114-litre main oven that can be split into two separate cooking zones, a 5-burner gas hob including a powerful wok burner, and an energy-saving panel, it clearly sits at the premium end of the market. The price reflects that, but you are getting a lot of cooker for your money.
Owner feedback is very strong: a 4.7 out of 5 rating from well over 300 reviews suggests this is a well-proven range that has already been thoroughly road-tested in busy family kitchens.
This Rangemaster is ideal for larger households and enthusiastic cooks who regularly juggle roasts, bakes and sides. The cavernous 114-litre multifunction oven and 90cm width make it well suited to family kitchens and those who entertain often.
It’s a premium choice rather than a budget buy, so it will appeal most if you see your cooker as the centrepiece of the kitchen and are prepared to invest in something that feels solid and built to last. The dual fuel setup – gas hob with electric oven – is particularly attractive to serious home cooks who like the control of gas flames and the consistency of electric baking.
The flexible oven divider is also a good match for couples or smaller families who do not need the full capacity every day. You can use just part of the oven for everyday meals to save energy, then remove the divider for big Sunday roasts or batch cooking.
If you are equipping a compact galley kitchen, or you rarely cook more than one dish at a time, this may be more cooker than you actually need, both in size and in spend.
The standout strength here is capacity and flexibility. A 114-litre multifunction cavity gives you room for large roasting tins, multiple trays of baking or several dishes at once, and the divider lets you turn it into two smaller cooking zones when needed.
The 5-burner gas hob, with cast iron pan supports and a triple-crown wok burner, offers plenty of space and power for everyday cooking and stir-fries. The included Teppanyaki-style griddle adds another layer of versatility for breakfasts, steaks and quick searing without needing a separate pan.
Performance-wise, the multifunction oven with fan assistance, top and bottom elements and defrost gives you a good set of options for baking, roasting and grilling, backed up by an A energy rating. The energy-saving panel and option to use part of the oven help keep running costs sensible for such a large cavity.
Build and usability details are strong too: triple-glazed door, Catch-rite door fixture, telescopic shelf runners and easy-clean enamel all point towards a cooker that feels sturdy and is easier to live with day to day. A programmable electronic timer and automatic ignition keep operation straightforward.
Finally, the excellent user rating and solid 2-year manufacturer warranty add reassurance that you are buying a reliable, well-regarded range from a brand with a strong track record in this category.
This is a premium-priced appliance, so while the specification largely justifies it, it will not suit tighter budgets or those simply looking for a basic cooker.
Despite the high-end positioning, the oven uses enamel rather than catalytic or pyrolytic liners. The easy-clean enamel helps, but you will still need to put in manual effort to keep the interior spotless, which some rivals reduce with self-cleaning coatings.
There is only one main oven cavity, albeit a huge one with a divider. If you strongly prefer completely separate ovens with their own doors – for example, a dedicated tall fan oven and a separate grill cavity – this layout may not be your first choice.
Installation is another consideration: it requires hard wiring by an electrician and connection by a Gas Safe engineer, and there is no plug, hose or LPG conversion kit included in the box. Those extra trades and parts add to the overall cost of getting it up and running.
Living with the Professional Plus FX feels much like using a scaled-down professional range. The rotary knobs and clear LED display make it easy to set temperatures and timers without diving through complex menus, and automatic ignition means the hob burners light with a simple twist and press.
On the hob, the five burners are well spaced, and the cast iron pan supports give a reassuringly solid platform for heavy pans. The powerful triple-crown wok burner brings large pots and woks up to heat quickly, while the included Teppanyaki-style griddle is great for pancakes, bacon or burgers without crowding the main burners.
The oven door opens downwards from the bottom hinge, giving a wide, stable platform to slide trays in and out. Telescopic shelf runners make it easier and safer to check on roasts or bakes without dragging the whole shelf out by hand. The interior light and triple-glazed window make it easy to keep an eye on food without opening the door and losing heat.
Cleaning is helped by the easy-clean enamel lining, which resists baked-on grease better than plain steel, though it still benefits from regular wiping rather than relying on self-cleaning features. The flat steel hob surface and removable pan supports are straightforward to wipe down after cooking.
Day to day, the programmable electronic timer is particularly useful for busy households: you can set the oven to switch on and off at specific times, handy for slow roasts or meals that you want ready when you walk in the door. The storage drawer provides a convenient spot for trays and the griddle, helping keep the rest of the kitchen clutter-free.
In terms of raw performance, the Professional Plus FX is built around a large 114-litre multifunction electric oven with an A energy rating. It offers fan assistance, conventional top and bottom heat, top-only, bottom-only and a defrost function, giving you the tools you need for everything from delicate sponges to crisp roasts.
The ability to insert a divider and create two cooking zones in the same cavity is a key feature. This lets you cook different dishes at different temperatures (within the design limits of the panel) or use just part of the oven for smaller meals, which is more efficient than heating the full 114 litres every time. For households that alternate between everyday dinners and big family gatherings, that flexibility is a real asset.
On the hob, the five gas burners cover a power range from 1 to 4 kW. The high-output wok burner is excellent for stir-fries and searing, while the smaller burners handle simmering sauces and gentle heating. The sturdy cast iron pan supports spread heat well and give the top a professional feel, and automatic safety shut-off with flame failure devices adds peace of mind by cutting the gas if the flames go out.
Convenience is bolstered by sensible touches: telescopic shelves for easier access, an interior oven light, triple-glazed door to keep heat in and the kitchen cooler at the front, plus an LED display and electronic programmable timer for accurate timings. The energy-saving panel and the option to use part of the oven help rein in energy use despite the large capacity.
From a features standpoint, the only noticeable omission at this price point is the lack of catalytic or pyrolytic cleaning and any form of child lock on the control panel. However, the overall specification – dual fuel layout, huge capacity, flexible oven, powerful hob, griddle and safety features – puts it firmly among the better-equipped 90cm ranges.
This Rangemaster clearly sits at the upper end of the price spectrum for 90cm dual fuel range cookers. You are paying a premium, but the package you get in return is strong: a very large multifunction oven with a clever divider system, a capable 5-burner gas hob with wok burner and griddle, and solid build quality with a contemporary finish.
The A-rated main cavity and energy-saving panel help soften running costs over time, particularly if you regularly use the partial-oven mode rather than always heating the full 114 litres. That makes it a more sensible long-term proposition for households that cook most days.
Crucially, owner satisfaction is high: a 4.7/5 score from hundreds of reviews indicates that buyers generally feel they have had good value for what they paid. The 2-year manufacturer warranty is decent, though not exceptional for this price bracket.
If you are simply looking for the cheapest 90cm cooker, this is not it. But if you prioritise performance, flexibility and brand reputation, the Professional Plus FX offers convincing value as a long-term centrepiece for a busy kitchen.
The Rangemaster Professional Plus FX PROP90FXDFFGB/C is a robust, feature-rich 90cm dual fuel range cooker that delivers where it matters: space, flexibility and cooking performance. The combination of a huge multifunction oven with a smart divider system and a powerful 5-burner gas hob makes it well suited to families and confident home cooks who regularly push their cooker hard.
It is not a bargain-basement choice, and the lack of self-cleaning oven liners is a noticeable omission on a cooker at this price. The single large cavity layout will not appeal to everyone who prefers two completely separate ovens either. Installation also adds to the cost, given the need for both an electrician and a Gas Safe engineer.
For those willing to invest, however, the Professional Plus FX offers a satisfying mix of professional feel, everyday practicality and strong owner satisfaction. If you want a premium dual fuel range that can handle everything from weeknight dinners to big entertaining with ease, this Rangemaster deserves a place at the top of your shortlist.
