Belling Cookcentre 90EI Black 90cm Electric Range Cooker with Ceramic Hob

The Belling RCACOOK90EIB is a 90cm wide electric range cooker with two ovens and a total cooking capacity of 174 litres. The main oven holds 89 litres (81 usable) and the second oven holds 70 litres (60 usable). That is a serious amount of cooking space for a family kitchen.

The ceramic hob has five cooking zones with 9+1 dual zone power levels and touch controls. The main oven is a tall fanned electric oven with multiple functions including air fry and slow cook. The AirFry function comes with a tray included so you free up worktop space. The second oven is also fanned making it genuinely useful for everyday meals.

Controls are manual dial with an LED/LCD display and a programmable timer. Safety features include pan detection and pan overheat protection on the hob. The energy rating is A and the oven lining is enamel which wipes down without specialist products.

Three years parts and labour guarantee backs this cooker. Five hob zones, two fanned ovens, air fry, slow cook and 174 litres of capacity make this a strong performer at 90cm wide.

This cooker is 896mm wide and needs a 900mm gap between units. It stands 900mm tall and sits 600mm deep which is standard worktop depth. It works freestanding between kitchen units or in a proper range recess. At 82kg it is a two-person lift and should not be moved alone. Plan your kitchen layout carefully before delivery as repositioning after installation is not straightforward.

The main oven at 89 litres (81 usable) fits a large turkey or a full joint with roasting trays. You get four shelves across nine positions so multiple trays of baking fit at once. The second 70 litre oven handles vegetables, sauces or a second dish at a different temperature. Five hob zones fit five pans at the same time. For a full roast use both ovens together and all five hob zones to run starters, mains and sides simultaneously.

The ceramic hob uses radiant heating elements beneath a glass surface with five zones and touch controls. The 9+1 dual zone layout means two adjacent zones can link together for large griddle pans or fish kettles. A boost function raises zone temperature quickly. Both ovens use fan-assisted heating which circulates hot air for even results and faster cooking. The main oven has five primary functions plus four additional modes including air fry and slow cook. The LED/LCD display drives the programmable timer. Enamel-lined cavities retain heat well and the two separate cavities allow different temperatures to run at the same time.

This cooker carries an A energy rating which is good for a 90cm electric range cooker. The second oven at 70 litres is the smarter choice for everyday meals as heating a smaller cavity uses less energy than firing up the full 89 litre main oven. Both ovens are fanned which circulates heat evenly and reduces cooking time compared to conventional heat.

This cooker needs a dedicated 240V electrical circuit installed by a qualified electrician. It cannot connect to a standard 13 amp plug socket. The kitchen gap must be at least 900mm wide to fit the 896mm body. The cooker weighs 82kg so plan for a two-person installation.

Both ovens have enamel linings. Clean them by hand with warm soapy water or a suitable oven cleaner once cool. Remove shelves before cleaning. Wipe the ceramic hob surface with a damp cloth when cool and use a ceramic hob scraper for stubborn marks. Avoid abrasive pads on any surface. Keeping the enamel clean protects your 3 year guarantee.

The body has a sleek black finish. The hob surface is ceramic glass with touch controls. Both oven cavities are lined with enamel. The door includes oven-rated glass panels. No specific steel gauge or cladding thickness is stated by the manufacturer.
