Prices for range cookers start at just under £700 here at Rangecookers.co.uk but whilst there are retailers that sell much cheaper, we are focused on the quality of the product you will be receiving.

The saying goes “buy cheap, buy twice”, as buying a cheap but second fiddle product is a false economy since it will often need replacement. A range cooker can provide a kitchen with a hint of colour, character and warmth. Cooking food to perfection, a premium model range cooker can cost you anywhere upwards of £2000. However, the build quality of a premium range cooker will ensure it has a long lifespan, making this daunting piece of equipment a great investment piece. We have created this Rangecookers guide to show you just what you’re getting for the price of a premium range cooker and why you should invest just that little bit extra…
