Rangemaster Professional Ranges with Induction hob

Does anyone have one?

Ideally I'd prefer an inset induction hob, with an eyelevel double oven, but there are too many windows so I don't have the length of my one solid wall to fit in a tall fridge, hob and oven bank.

I have cooked with an induction hob before, which I love, but it has surface level touch controls. You can set each hob ring to turn off after set periods etc. Do you get this function with the range type? Also, do you get an indicator on the top to tell you how hot each ring is, or do you have to bend down and peer at each twiddly knob? Are the knobs good quality, or do they melt/break (they bloomin' well shouldn't!)

And then, do I go for a single oven like this which I prefer the look of.

Or one with 2 separate ovens like this one. I don't use a grill very often, so the oven is just lower down and a bit more inaccessible, but you get 2 separately controllable cooking ovens. But it doesn't look as streamlined.

Or Stoves make this one here which does seem to have top control of the hob, so a more streamlined look...

I'd love some personal feedback :)

I can't help on the induction hob but I'd go for two ovens rather than one big one, unless you regularly cook roast dinners for 10 in which case a huge oven would be useful. We have the Rangemaster Pro 90 with two ovens and it's great to be able to have one on low for a slow cooked lamb shoulder while you're roasting some veg in the other.

I have a similar problem to you - large kitchen but not enough wall space. I have already decided on the Stoves model you have linked to. In fact, it has three ovens - one being a slow oven. Have you seen them in real life? I would suggest you do that if you can. This was one decision I made easily. Sinks/taps/cooker hood - aaaggghhhh!
