Stoves Richmond 90cm Electric Induction Range Cooker Cream

The Stoves Richmond RCARICH90EIC is a 90cm electric range cooker with three separate oven cavities and a total cooking capacity of 174 litres. The main oven gives you 89 litres (81 usable) while the second cavity offers 70 litres (60 usable) and the third adds a further 42 litres (33 usable). That is serious cooking space in a cream finish that suits both modern and traditional kitchens.

The hob is induction with five zones and touch control it heats the pan not the surface, so it is faster and safer than ceramic. You can bridge zones together for large pans or griddles. The main oven has 13 cooking functions including AirFry with a dedicated tray, rapid pre-heat, slow cook, pizza and defrost. The second cavity handles conventional cooking and the Maxi-Grill. The third is a Titan tall fanned oven.

Controls are manual dials with an LED/LCD display and a Maxi-Clock programmer. The TrueTemp digital thermostat keeps temperatures accurate. Safety features include pan overheat detection, child lock and pan detection. The oven lining is enamel and there is a SteamCleanse cleaning assistant built in. Energy rating is A.

Three ovens, five induction zones, AirFry and a 3-year parts and labour guarantee make this a strong all-round performer at 90cm.

This cooker is 896mm wide and 600mm deep. You need a kitchen gap of at least 900mm. It can sit freestanding between base units or in a proper range recess. At 84kg it is a two-person lift and should not be dragged across flooring without protection. It suits medium to large kitchens where worktop runs allow for the full 90cm footprint plus clearance at each side and above.

The 89-litre main oven fits a large turkey or two full roasting trays side by side. With 13 functions including fan, conventional and pizza mode it handles most cooking tasks. The 70-litre second cavity with Maxi-Grill can run simultaneously use it for roast vegetables or grilling while the main oven handles the joint. The 42-litre third cavity suits everyday baking or reheating. All five induction zones are live at once so you can run five pans together or bridge two zones for a large stockpot or griddle pan.

The induction hob uses electromagnetic fields to heat the pan base directly. No heat is wasted on the surrounding surface. Each of the five zones has 10 power levels including a boost setting for fast boiling. Two zones can be bridged to form one large zone. The main oven uses a fan to circulate heat from a rear element giving even results across all shelf positions. The TrueTemp digital thermostat monitors and adjusts temperature continuously. The Maxi-Clock programmer allows timed cooking. Oven cavities are insulated independently so running one does not heat the others unnecessarily.

This cooker carries an A energy rating. Induction heats the pan directly so less energy is wasted compared to ceramic or solid plate hobs. The fan oven circulates heat evenly so lower temperatures can be used. For everyday meals use the 42-litre third cavity rather than the 89-litre main oven smaller space means less energy used to reach and hold temperature.

This cooker needs a dedicated 240V circuit installed by a qualified electrician. It cannot use a standard 13-amp plug. The kitchen gap must be at least 900mm wide to fit the 896mm body. Check the installation manual for side and overhead clearance. The cooker weighs 84kg so two people are needed to position it.

The ovens are lined with enamel. Use the built-in SteamCleanse assistant regularly to loosen grease before wiping out with a damp cloth. Remove shelves and wash separately. Wipe the induction hob after each use once cool the surface does not get as hot as ceramic so spills are less likely to bake on. Avoid abrasive cleaners on the cream finish to keep the enamel in good condition and protect your guarantee.

The body is finished in cream enamel. The oven interiors are lined with enamel for durability and ease of cleaning. The hob surface is a flat induction glass panel. Oven doors feature multi-pane glass to reduce external heat. Shelves are chrome-plated steel.
