I’d go with the Rangemaster personally.Also remember to leave lots of ventilation for the hob, it’ll need it. I normally say to people to try as best they can not to put an oven under an induction hob as, in my experience, it’s one of the primary reason that you get trouble with an induction hob.

How reliable are the Rangemaster ovens, I know they don’t have as many PCB’s etc to go wrong as the Siemens, but I’m worried that a 1 year warranty doesn’t exactly scream confidence from the manufacturer
????? ALL Rangemaster kitchen appliances come with a 2 year warranty as standard, these built under ovens are pretty sweet too.Re: Leisure Professional 110

Thankyou for the reply, so the fact that the gas isn’t connected has no bearing on setting the clock.No the gas being connected makes no difference, do you remember how many buttons the timer had ?

Re: Range Cooker – which size?
meggles wrote:Morning – we’re trying to decide on a new range cooker, for our new kitchen.
We’re trying to decide on 90cm or 100cm width. We haven’t finalized the kitchen cabinet design, and so have some flexibility…
Our requirements are: Dual Fuel (gas hob, electric oven), Black, Catalytic oven linings. We’re particularly concerned about oven volume, as we often cook 2 joints/etc.
Trying to think if 90cm- 1 grill, 1 main oven, 1 long tall oven or 100cm- 2 ovens, 1 grill, 1 storage/warming is better….
Any other suggestions for makes/models/etc would be most helpful. We have a flexible budget of £1200.As all the ranges I can think of that are 100cm are crap I would definitely go for 90cm and that 90cm cooker could ONLY be a Rangemaster, you’re wasting good money buying any of the others.
Oven and grill outer doors are around £250 mark trade price on some jobs I’ve priced up recently, absolutely nuts, when a customer throws away a couple of year old oven for ridiculously priced parts as such the manufacturer pretty much can guarantee never getting that customers trade again.
Re: diplomat 920 grill tripping fuse
twisted_finger wrote:just purchased an unused (new) diplomat double oven model no :ahy4410, fitted into housing and turned on to check all works, (unit didnt come with user manual)grill came on but after a couple of minutes the fuse tripped(had left the top door shut). have left the doors open to allow grill to cool, however now the fuse trips as soon as the grill is turned on. the top oven still works without tripping when selected. as this oven is new i am a bit puzzeled, even moreso as i dont have a manual to go thru.
any help would be appreciated
twisted_fingerThis isnt going to be “brand new” if its a Diplomat, It will have been made before MFI went bust, it sounds like a classic case of “damp” in the elements which will be down to it being stored in an inappropriate area for an appliance like this.
It will need the elements drying out to stop the earth leakage or the elements replacing.

If you paid by credit card then your case would e against the credit card company not the retailer.
BryanI believe its actually against both, they share liability.

Both were nice chaps, sure theres someone else but cant think off hand.
Heard alot of stories about who were nice and who were swines when I worked for AGA though.
edit: Mark Saggers (former Sky Sports News presenter now on Talk Sport) He was great, very pleasant chap.
I give 12 months warranty on all my repairs and in 4 and a half years of self employment have been called back only a handful of times…. Is this really a big issue ?

It is. Next to the cooker. Is that bad?Yep, not legal, rubber pipe/cooker hose may not pass through the side of a cupboard and also can only be positioned as per manufacturers instructions.
Looks like there may be another installation fault too but I could only say for definite if there was a front on photo of it.
