Falcon 1000 Deluxe

For serious cooks looking for a straightforward, solid, simple and reliable range cooker there is nothing quite like a Falcon, and this 1000 Deluxe model has become something of a classic. Built to appeal to those aspiring to a more professional standard a Falcon range is built using heavier-grade materials than its Rangemaster cousins, and to this end the 1000 Deluxe also does away with the more domestic features like a timer/programmer or windowed doors, giving a more robust and focused user experience. A spacious stainless steel hotplate provides an easy to clean platform for sturdy individual cast iron pan supports and features five professional-grade burners including a more powerful 5kW central burner, all operated via chunky, clear and simple Bakelite-style control knobs. The oven doors open to reveal heavy-duty oven shelves and racks, and catalytic self-clean oven liners on the sides and rear of the main oven, with a removable panel on the oven floor. The capacious fanned oven on the right features wipe-clean enamel. In the grill cavity the heavy-duty steel continues to impress with a very nice quality glide-out grill tray and trivet. Heavy-gauge stainless steel is also used to good effect on the outer corners of the doors and to form the cooker’s side panels, so this is a cooker designed to look great even when installed on the end of a run of kitchen units, or standing alone.

The Falcon 1000 Deluxe is a very handsome and highly competent range which manages to look terrific in either a contemporary or a traditional setting, and will give you premium performance for many happy years. Likewise, the matching cooker hoods and splashbacks are designed to give you the full Falcon effect both visually and functionally. Part of the Aga Rangemaster group, Falcon is a premium brand for those who appreciate simplicity and understand that flair need not come with all the frills. Like a Falcon range these are enduring qualities which will never go out of fashion.
