Rangemaster Classic FX 90cm Dual Fuel Range Cooker with Multifunction Oven and Energy Saving Panel
Black with Brass trim, the Classic FX 90 is a dual fuel range cooker with a 114-litre A-rated oven and a grill that runs full or half width.
Black with Brass trim is the boldest pairing in the Classic FX 90 range, and it works best where the cooker is meant to be looked at. The specification is identical to its stablemates: a five-burner gas hob, a full-width storage drawer and a single 114-litre multifunction electric oven.
The oven is the part worth understanding. It holds 114 litres in one cavity, which is enough for a full roast and its trimmings on five shelf levels. Slide the energy saving panel into place and only the right-hand half heats, so a weeknight tray bake does not cost you a full cavity of energy. Take the panel out again for Christmas.
Ideal For
Take the divider out and all 114 litres run on any of the seven functions, with shelves supplied for the full cavity as well as the divided one. Five levels give you room to stack.
Most nights you do not need 114 litres. The panel drops in, the right-hand half heats and the left side warms plates on residual heat while you serve.
At 90cm wide with a full-width storage drawer, the Classic FX 90 anchors a run of units and keeps trays, shelves and the divider itself out of sight.
Key Features
One large multifunction cavity with five shelf levels, supplied with five flat shelves. Enough space to cook a roast and its accompaniments on separate levels at the same time.
Defrost, fan, fan assisted and conventional cooking cover the everyday work, while browning and base heat let you finish a dish rather than restart it.
The largest of the five burners spreads heat across a wide pan base, which is what stir-frying and large-batch cooking actually need from a gas hob.
A removable divider that limits heating to the right-hand side of the cavity. The left side becomes a plate warmer on residual heat while it is fitted.
The electric grill sits inside the cavity and can be run full or half width, so you are not heating the whole element for two pieces of toast.
The electric oven carries an A energy rating, measured across conventional and forced air convection use, which is a useful figure on an appliance this size.
Why the divider changes the maths
A 114-litre cavity is generous, and on a Sunday that is exactly what you want. On a Wednesday it is more oven than a single tray of fish needs. The energy saving panel answers that. Slide it in and only the right-hand half heats, using the right-hand elements alone, which is a far more proportionate way to cook a small meal. The left-hand side stays useful as a warming space on residual heat, and shelves are supplied for both arrangements.
A hob graded for real cooking
Five burners across 90cm sounds like a lot until you notice they are not the same. The wok burner runs at 4.0 kW and spreads heat over a wide base, which is what a stir-fry or a big pan of stew needs. A 3.0 kW burner takes a stockpot. Two at 1.7 kW do the everyday work. The 1.0 kW burner drops low enough for a sauce that must not catch. Total gas rating is 11.40 kW on natural gas.
Installation, weight and the space it needs
This is a freestanding appliance and needs to be treated as one. It measures 90cm wide and 60.8cm deep excluding handles, 66.9cm with them, and stands 90.5cm to 93cm high on adjustable feet, so it will not drop into a 60cm gap. It weighs 123.08 kg, which is a two-person job worth confirming before delivery day. Gas and electricity both need to be present: it is supplied set for natural gas at 20 mbar and carries a maximum electrical load of 3.65 kW.
How It Compares
| Kitchen Need | Rangemaster Technology | Practical Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Sunday roast for eight | 114-litre single cavity | One uninterrupted oven on five shelf levels, so a large bird and its trays go in together rather than in shifts. |
| Batch baking | Fan oven function | Even circulated heat across the full cavity, which keeps trays on different levels rising at a similar rate. |
| Midweek meals for two | Energy saving panel | Only the right-hand half of the oven heats, so a single tray does not need all 114 litres up to temperature. |
| Stir-frying in a wok | 4.0 kW wok burner | Heat spread across a wide pan base rather than concentrated in the centre, which is what a wok actually needs. |
| Slow-cooked stews | 1.0 kW small burner | A genuinely low setting for long simmering, so a sauce can sit for hours without catching on the base of the pan. |
| Timed cooking | 3-button programmable clock | Set the oven to start and stop on its own, useful when dinner should be ready before you are back. |

The Verdict
Strengths
- 90cm dual fuel format: gas hob, electric multifunction oven
- 11.40 kW total gas rating across five burners
- 3.50 kW integrated grill runs full or half width
- Five flat shelves supplied for full and divided cooking
- 3-button programmable clock for timed cooking
- Adjustable feet for levelling into a run of units
- 2-pan oven tray with cradle and trivet included
Considerations
- At 90cm wide and 123.08 kg, this will not fit a 60cm gap and delivery needs two people and a clear route.
- Gas and electricity are both required: connection by a registered gas installer and a suitable electrical supply for a 3.65 kW load.
- Supplied set for natural gas at 20 mbar. If you are on LPG, the conversion kit is a separate purchase.
