range cooker in island?

Hi!

We thinking of keeping our induction range cooker when we get our new kitchen and housing it in our island.

What are people’s thoughts? I can’t find many pictures!

To make it look right, It's got to fit proportionally so have some chunky cupboards either side, don't put it at the end with island behind.
This is a link to one I've done before and because it was an open plan room, they chose to have a raised seating area to hide it and the mess!

Which Range Cooker?

Hello Charlie, Well.... If we're talking range then Wolf is my favourite. I also like a white Aga... Failing that Smeg are good. I have had one for 11 years.. Not the same one I moved.. but I do think they are excellent.. What I would look at first is how and what you like to cook as this will help you decide what size to go for... If you have the room go for a 6 burner see image.. These styles are dual fuel which I prefer, and think the Smeg oven is very reliable.. Have a look at a few models to see what you think, but I find them quite easy to clean and they fit the "chrome" look. So you might want to consider a double oven which is pretty useful when cooking a main dish and then say a pudding or canapes in the smaller of the two.... Price? You can get something starting at about a grand. :))

You could try online second hand kitchen sites like kitchen exchange, used kitchen company, used kitchen exchange i believe some of them will sell appliances for you, just a quick google search.

I don’t like it. I think it just looks bulky instead of sleek.

I’m not keen. Maybe in a proper country kitchen but it just doesn’t look right to me. Much prefer a ceramic or halogen hob and so much easier to keep clean.

OP does say it’s an induction range.

We love this idea! A range cooker can look incredible in an island, but it does pose some logistical questions.

Have you considered your hood / extractor fan options? Our range of integrated and above-island extractor fans are perfect for keeping your kitchen air clear whilst saving space.
