Belling Cookcentre 100E Black 100cm Electric Range Cooker 5-Zone Ceramic Hob

The Belling RCACOOK100EB is a 100cm wide electric range cooker with two ovens and a total cooking capacity of 194 litres. It sits in Belling's Cookcentre range and comes in a sleek black finish with a modern look that suits most kitchen styles.

The hob is ceramic with 5 zones including a dedicated warming zone useful for keeping sauces or sides hot while you finish the main. The main oven is a fanned electric oven with 5 multi-functions including AirFry an AirFry tray is included. The second oven is a conventional electric oven with 4 functions. A slow cook function is also built in. Both ovens have a boost function to speed up pre-heating.

Controls are electronic with an LED/LCD display and a programmable oven timer. Energy rating is A which is solid for a cooker this size. The oven lining is enamel. Shelf positions are 5 in each oven with 4 and 3 shelves supplied respectively.

A 3-year parts and labour guarantee is included. With 194 litres of capacity across two independently controlled ovens and a 5-zone ceramic hob this is a well-specified cooker for busy households.

At 996mm wide this cooker takes up just under 1 metre of worktop run. You need a clear gap of at least 1000mm between units or walls. It can stand freestanding between kitchen units but a proper range recess with correct clearances above and at the sides is recommended. At 86.9kg this is a two-person lift and should not be moved or installed by one person alone.

The main fanned oven holds 64 usable litres large enough for a medium turkey or two full roasting trays side by side. The second conventional oven gives you 60 usable litres for roast vegetables or a second dish at a different temperature. Run both ovens together for a full Sunday roast. The 5-zone ceramic hob fits five pans at once with a warming zone keeping gravy or sauces hot. The AirFry function handles chips or crispy food in the main oven using the included tray.

The ceramic hob uses radiant heating elements beneath a smooth glass surface. Five zones heat independently and a dedicated warming zone runs at a lower output to hold food temperature without cooking further. The main oven uses a fan to circulate hot air from a rear element giving even heat across all shelf positions. The second oven is conventional using top and bottom elements for traditional baking. Both ovens are insulated independently so running one does not heat the other. The electronic controls manage temperature precisely and the programmable timer can switch the oven on and off automatically.

This cooker is A rated for energy efficiency which is good for a 100cm electric range cooker. The second oven is 70 litres using it for smaller meals instead of the main oven cuts energy use noticeably. The fanned main oven circulates heat evenly which reduces cooking time and saves energy compared to a conventional oven of the same size.

This cooker needs a dedicated 240V circuit and must be fitted by a qualified electrician. The cooker is 996mm wide so your kitchen gap must be at least 1000mm. At 86.9kg it is a two-person lift. The merchant lists recycling as a service contact them to confirm whether old appliance removal is available. Check the installation manual for exact clearance requirements above and at the sides.

Both ovens have enamel linings wipe them down with a damp cloth once cool after each use. Enamel is not self-cleaning so regular cleaning prevents baked-on build-up. Wipe the ceramic hob with a ceramic hob cleaner once cool. Remove shelves and wash separately. Keep the enamel free from harsh abrasives to protect the finish and maintain the guarantee.

The exterior is finished in black with a sleek modern finish. The hob surface is smooth ceramic glass. Both oven cavities are lined with enamel. The door or doors include glass panels for viewing food during cooking. Specific steel grades or body construction details are not stated by the manufacturer.
