Designed for home cooks seeking a versatile and powerful kitchen centerpiece, the De'Longhi Range Cooker in Silver offers the best of both worlds with its responsive gas hob and precise electric ovens. Its key win is the combination of a high-performance 5-burner gas hob, including a dedicated wok burner, alongside two spacious electric ovens with multiple functions and easy-clean features.

The De'Longhi Range Cooker is engineered for consistent, high-performance cooking across a variety of culinary tasks.
The 5-burner gas hob delivers instant heat and precise flame control. The 3.5 kW wok burner is a standout feature, perfect for quickly stir-frying vegetables, searing meats, or boiling water rapidly. The other burners cater to various pot sizes and cooking needs, from simmering delicate sauces to boiling pasta. Cast iron pan supports provide stable platforms for your cookware and retain heat, enhancing cooking efficiency.
Main Oven (70 Litres, 8 Functions): This multifunction electric oven is your workhorse. Its 8 functions allow for diverse cooking methods, from conventional baking and fan-assisted roasting to grilling and defrosting. The programmable timer ensures your dishes are cooked to perfection, automatically turning the oven off or alerting you when complete. Use the fan function for even heat distribution when baking multiple trays of cookies or roasting a large joint.
Small Oven (45 Litres, 3 Functions): Ideal for smaller meals, side dishes, or when you need an additional oven at a different temperature. Its electric grill function is perfect for browning, toasting, or quick grilling tasks, freeing up the main oven for other preparations.
Dinner Party Prep: Simultaneously roast a turkey in the main oven, bake a gratin in the secondary oven, and stir-fry a side dish on the wok burner, all at once.
Everyday Meals: Quickly boil pasta on a gas burner while a casserole bakes slowly in the main oven, using the programmable timer for convenience.
Baking Enthusiasts: Utilize the precise temperature control of the electric ovens for consistent baking results, from delicate meringues to crusty bread.
Easy Cleanup: After a busy cooking session, the easy-clean enamel interior and removable inner door glass simplify the cleanup process, allowing you to wipe away spills and grease with minimal effort.
Professional Installation: Due to its dual fuel nature (gas hob, electric ovens) and connection to your home's gas supply, this appliance must be installed by a qualified Gas Safe registered engineer in the UK, or equivalent certified professional in other regions, and a qualified electrician. Ensure compliance with local regulations.
Electrical Connection: Requires a dedicated electrical circuit. Refer to the product manual for specific power requirements.
Gas Connection: Connects to your home's natural gas supply. If using LPG, the included LPG conversion kit must be installed by a qualified professional.
Dimensions: Carefully check the product dimensions (900-920 mm H x 900 mm W x 600 mm D, excluding handles and knobs) to ensure it fits your intended kitchen space.
Fuel Type: Compatible with natural gas (factory set) and LPG (with conversion kit).
Electrical Supply: Requires a standard domestic electrical supply appropriate for the cooker's power rating.
Ventilation: Ensure adequate ventilation in your kitchen as per installation guidelines for gas appliances.
Daily Cleaning: For the gas hob, wipe down spills immediately with a soft cloth and mild detergent once cool. The cast iron pan supports can be removed and cleaned separately.
Oven Interior: The easy-clean enamel interior allows for simple wiping with a damp cloth after each use. For more stubborn stains, use oven cleaners suitable for enamel surfaces (always test on an inconspicuous area first).
Door Glass: The removable inner door glass panels can be taken out for thorough cleaning, ensuring a clear view of your cooking.
Safety Checks: Periodically ensure burners light correctly and the Flame Supervision Device (FSD) is functioning. If you smell gas, immediately turn off the supply and contact a professional. Refer to your user manual for detailed safety instructions.
