RANGEMASTER ELAN : Reviews & best prices?

[yousaidit]

Yay! Following my old thread trying to find a thread where we bought our dicounted crappy electrolux cooker, i've got it refunded!!! So now i need a new cooker...

budget would be pushing it for a rangemaster kitchener, but, oh, how my heart swoons at the elan

anyone got good or bad reviews of these cookers and best places for prices? its a 110cm one we'll be looking at.

thanks ladies!

I hope somebody who knows more will be able to come along and help you - but for what it's worth, my parents have an electric rangemaster (not sure which model, sorry) and its ceramic hob is dreadful - very slow and unresponsive. The oven is fine, on the other hand; reasonably quick to heat up and has good temperature control. HTH!

I have the Elan 110 and I'm not overly happy with it I'm afraid. The oven doesn't seem to cook very evenly, the hob rings are annoyingly placed, the oven shelves are too wide so smaller things can't be placed directly on them (eg. small potatoes fall through the gap) and the grill is very small for such a large oven. It's incredibly pretty though

ah, well, thankyou both for your replies. In the end, as we needed a 110cm cooker, we plumped for the kitchener (with the glass doors). ah yes, the elan is ever so pretty, but i was heaving at spending an extra £600 on top of the cost of the kitchener, so your post has cheered me up bodenbabe!

allbuggiedout, thanks for the info about the ceramic hobs. we've got a dual fuel so the hobs are all gas.

cheers, ladies!!
