A range cooker is the statement centrepiece of many Irish kitchens — a wide cooker with extra ovens and a big hob, built for proper home cooking. Here's how to choose the right one.
Choose your fuel
- Electric (with induction or ceramic hob): precise, efficient and easy to clean — induction is the fastest and safest.
- Dual fuel: a gas hob (loved for flame control) with electric ovens — a popular best-of-both.
- Gas: traditional flame cooking throughout, where a gas supply exists.
Pick your width
- 60cm: compact, for smaller kitchens.
- 90cm: the popular family size — twin ovens and a roomy hob.
- 100–110cm: serious cooking space with multiple ovens and burners.
What else to consider
- Multiple ovens let you cook dishes at different temperatures at once.
- Hob type and number of zones for how you cook.
- Energy ratings and easy-clean features.
