I've always wanted a classic black range-style cooker and the Belling Sandringham looked ideal. I was excited to see whether it would deliver on function as well as form and I'm happy to say the cooker didn't disappoint. It was lighter than I thought it would be which made it much easier to move in and install but it's also proven to be a very robust and well-built item. Multiple gas hobs with plenty of space in between have made it easy to prepare plenty of hob-top dishes (including the season's first mulled cider) in large pans at the same time, plus the wok burner is so useful! The multiple oven spaces have a rapid heat-up time so the cooker was a bit of a revelation when I used it to cook a large but quick meal for all my friends and family. The cooker has been very easy to use and has lovely little features like an electric timer and separate grill which I've found great for winter BBQ-style meals. Designed with smooth surfaces and clean lines, the Belling Sandringham has so far been very easy to clean, even after a big spillage on the hob top. The silver hardware compliments the black body really nicely and the handles and doors are all very ergonomic and easy to open and use. A great mix of traditional aesthetics with convenient modern features, this cooker is now the heart of my kitchen and I'm so happy with it. This year's Christmas dinner will make for a more serious road test but after my initial experiences with this lovely range cooker I have very high hopes.

I was interested to see how this Belling range cooker compared to my favourite of all time cookers. This cooker consists of 5 gas burners including a central wok burner, an electric grill, and two electric fan ovens. The width is 90cm making it an attractive focal point that doesn’t overwhelm my medium-sized kitchen. The design is tasteful with clean black edges and silver handles and detail. I was surprised at how light the doors feel, yet they are in no way flimsy. The knobs too have a light feel, but are still solid, look good, and are delightfully smooth to turn giving an ease to heat adjustment. The display clock/timer is set behind a glass touch screen that can also be used to programme the cooking times, and there is also a ‘lock’ feature that can be activated by holding the ‘+’ for a few seconds. An exciting feature on this range is the ‘slow cook’, which means you can put your food in the oven before you go out and arrive home to beautifully cooked meal. There is also a ‘defrost’ option that massively decreases usual defrost times. The variable grill cavity has a 5 adjustable shelf height. It grills both evenly and quickly. The main oven is below the grill, so a little awkward if wanting to open the door whilst using the grill, but not impossible. The other larger oven can cook up to a whopping 86 litres, so great for large households or entertaining. Both have fans, which I found speeded up cooking times immensely. Cooking is also even throughout the oven no matter what shelf the food is put on, so may affect how you cook if you’re used to putting something that needs less cooking on a lower shelf. The main oven also has a clear glass section (that can be removed for cleaning) and makes it easy to see how well your food is cooking, especially as it cooks so quickly! I am very happy with this dual fuel cooker. It is my first range cooker, which means I finally had space to cook everything with ease, which surprisingly made cooking less stressful. I really love the large oven, so everything can be served hot without the need to reheat and with the extra fast cooking times this low energy rated ‘A/A’ range cooker should be saving money too.

Love this cooker (bought to replace a 12year old Belling duel fuel, still working, cooker) loving having a timer and clock on this. Plus having that 5th burner (a wok burner) for extra large pans is so helpful. Christmas Dinner for 12 is going to be a breeze with 2 Fan ovens! ?? one and only drawback no glass lid to shut the gas off when done in case you forget (paranoid kids lol)

Brilliant range at a brilliant price. Had seen it in a shop for a lot more. Excellent communication and speedy delivery. Thank Q xx

Really nice stylish cooker, well worth the money, cooks well, great purchase

Very pleased with the Belling, and with the excellent price. So far, all functions have proved to be excellent. Impressed withntje care taken by AO to check details for installation requirements.

Great oven, more modern looking than I had originally wanted but now I just love the look of it. It's quick to heat up, bakes evenly and works well.

I went with belling because it was recommended to me I have never had electric so was a big jump for me. and I’m not disappointed looks lovely and is very quick and easy to use heats up quick, I haven’t used the grill yet but I’m certain that if if works as well as the rest of the cooker I won’t be disappointed. Very happy and looking forward to all the extra trimmings I can cook to go with Christmas dinner.
