This Rangemaster Classic 110 review comes down to one question: do you want two big, simple fan ovens, or do you want oven functions? The Classic 110 gives you two 80-litre fan ovens, a separate 29-litre grill and a six-burner gas hob on the dual fuel model, in the arched-window, towel-rail style most people picture when they hear “Rangemaster”. What it does not give you is a multifunction oven. Both ovens do one thing, fan cooking, and that is the whole difference between it and the Classic Deluxe 110.

Rangemaster redesigned the Classic and Classic Deluxe in October 2025, so there are two generations of the Classic 110 in shops. This review covers the current model and flags where the outgoing one differs, because older stock is still being sold.

What you get: the current Classic 110 dual fuel

The new dual fuel model carries the product codes CLO110DFP (with a colour suffix). Behind the doors, from the specification published by specialist retailer Rangecookers.co.uk:

  • Top left: a 29-litre grill with a drop-down door, a dual-circuit electric element (whole pan or half) and a tray on telescopic runners. You can set it at four heights. Because it has its own cavity, you can grill and use both ovens at the same time.
  • Bottom left: an 80-litre fan oven with one wire shelf and one telescopic shelf, energy rated A.
  • Top right: a second 80-litre fan oven with two wire shelves, also rated A.
  • Bottom right: a storage drawer for trays and roasting tins.
  • On top: six gas burners. A 3.5kW double-ring wok burner, two 3kW burners, two 1.7kW and one 1kW, on individual matt cast-iron pan supports, with single-handed ignition and flame failure protection on every burner. A removable griddle, half smooth and half ridged, comes in the box.
  • Controls: a white LED display with a programmable timer and minute minder, and rotary dials.

Those litre figures are gross cavity sizes; Rangemaster and retailers do not publish usable volume for this model, which is always a little less once shelves and the fan cover are accounted for. Even so, 80 litres is large. Many built-in single ovens are around 70 litres, so each Classic 110 oven is at least as big as a typical whole oven, and you have two.

The Classic comes in Pale Cream, Black, Misty Blue and Bordeaux, with chrome trim only. Misty Blue is a Classic-only colour; you cannot get it on the Deluxe. An LPG conversion kit is available for the dual fuel model if you are off the gas grid, fitted by a Gas Safe engineer. Induction and ceramic versions of the Classic 110 exist for all-electric kitchens; see our comparison of dual fuel and electric range cookers before you choose.

What it is good at

Feeding a crowd without juggling. Two equal fan ovens is the most useful layout for big meals. Roast in one, potatoes and vegetables in the other, and the grill free for anything that needs browning. There is no “small top oven” to plan around, which is the compromise on most 90cm ranges.

Hob space. Six burners across 110cm means every pan has room, and the wok burner sits in a sensible spot rather than squeezed in. The 3.5kW double-ring burner is hot enough for a proper stir fry, and the 1kW burner turns down far enough to hold a sauce.

Simplicity. One function per oven means nothing to learn: turn the dial to a temperature and it heats. For people who mainly roast, bake and batch-cook, that is a strength, and there are fewer parts to go wrong.

The look. It is the archetypal traditional range: arched oven windows, bevelled doors and a full-width rail. It suits cottage, Shaker and country kitchens without trying.

Where it falls short

No multifunction oven. You cannot switch to top-and-bottom heat for a crisp pastry base, or base heat alone, or a defrost setting. Fan heat cooks most things well, but bakers who like conventional heat for cakes and bread will feel the gap. The Classic Deluxe 110 has an eight-function oven including a DUO mode (fan plus base heat), which is the main reason to pay more.

Two ovens to heat. An 80-litre cavity takes longer to warm and costs more to run than a compact one, and you have no small oven for a single tray of something. If most of your cooking is for two, our guide to range cooker running costs shows what that means in practice.

It is heavy and fixed in size. The current model is 1092mm wide, 617mm deep and adjusts from 895 to 935mm to the hotplate, and it weighs about 132kg unpacked. It needs a true 110cm gap with clearance either side, a gas supply in the right place and a suitable electrical circuit. Check our page on what size range cooker you need before ordering.

Colour lead times. One specialist retailer was quoting one to two weeks for black and eight to twelve weeks for other colours in autumn 2026. If you need it by a date, ask before you order.

Classic 110 vs Classic Deluxe 110

Classic 110 Classic Deluxe 110
Ovens Two 80-litre fan ovens 80-litre eight-function multifunction oven (including DUO) plus a second oven
Layout options One layout Side-by-side with a slow cook cavity, or offset with a proving drawer
Extras Telescopic grill tray, one telescopic oven shelf Telescopic shelves, Handyrack, Rapid Response heat-up
Trim Chrome only Chrome or antique brass
Colours Pale Cream, Black, Misty Blue, Bordeaux A wider palette including Slate, Heather and Stone Blue

If you bake a lot, want a slow cook cavity, or want brass trim, the Deluxe is worth the step up. If you mostly roast and want maximum oven space for the least complexity, the plain Classic does the job. Our Rangemaster model overview covers the rest of the collections, including the Elise and Professional, and our Aga vs Rangemaster comparison helps if you are still deciding between the two brands.

Old Classic 110 or new: how to tell, and does it matter?

The outgoing dual fuel model used the code CLA110DFF. Its own user guide describes a programmable fan oven on the left with a Handyrack, a second fan oven, a glide-out grill and a storage drawer, with two-handed burner ignition and a 4kW wok burner. The 2025 model added the white LED display, single-handed ignition, a larger grill with height settings and a self-adjusting magnetic plinth, and refreshed the doors and fascia.

Old stock is still a sound cooker. The thing to check is the warranty. Rangemaster’s 5 year warranty promotion applies to the new-generation Classic launched in October 2025, and Rangemaster tells buyers to confirm with the retailer which version they are getting. Ask for the model code in writing. The offer covers eligible cookers bought by 30 November 2026, and you must register within 28 days of delivery; otherwise you get the standard two years.

Installation checks

  • A dual fuel Classic 110 must be connected by a Gas Safe registered engineer, who will also check the room has the ventilation the installation rules require.
  • Leave at least 650mm between the hotplate and the underside of a cooker hood (the figure in Rangemaster’s Classic 110 installation guide), and more if the hood maker asks for it.
  • The cooker needs room to slide in and out for servicing, and the floor must take its weight. Get the gap measured before delivery day; a range that will not fit is a costly return.

Our verdict

The Rangemaster Classic 110 is the right cooker for someone who cooks big, cooks often and wants two large, fuss-free ovens in a traditional frame. It is not the right cooker for a keen baker who wants conventional or base heat, or for anyone who wants the most features for the money: that is the Classic Deluxe 110 or another collection. Buy the new model if you want the five-year warranty offer, and check the gap, gas and electrics before you order.

Frequently asked questions

Does the Rangemaster Classic 110 have a multifunction oven? No. Both ovens on the Classic 110 are fan ovens with a single function. If you want a multifunction oven on a traditional-looking Rangemaster, the Classic Deluxe 110 has an eight-function oven including a DUO fan-and-base setting.

How big are the ovens on the Classic 110? On the current dual fuel model each fan oven is 80 litres and the separate grill is 29 litres. Those are gross capacities; usable space is slightly less.

What is the difference between the Classic 110 and the Classic 100? Not much inside the ovens: the current Classic 100 also has two 80-litre fan ovens and a 29-litre grill above the left oven. The 110’s extra 10cm goes into a wider six-burner hob and a different door layout. Pick the width your kitchen gap allows first.

What colours does the Rangemaster Classic 110 come in? Pale Cream, Black, Misty Blue and Bordeaux, all with chrome trim. For brass trim or colours such as Slate and Stone Blue you need the Classic Deluxe.

Can the Classic 110 run on LPG? The dual fuel model can be converted to LPG with a conversion kit, which must be fitted by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Tell the retailer when you order so the kit is supplied.

How long is the warranty on a Rangemaster Classic 110? Two years as standard. The new-generation Classic is included in Rangemaster’s autumn 2026 promotion, which extends cover to five years parts and labour if you buy by 30 November 2026 and register within 28 days of delivery.
