Fancy Choosing the Colour of the New Britannia Range Cooker?
by Majjie | Tue, 16/03/2010 - 17:05Britannia make a lot of range cookers. They vary from the 90cm E-Line for about £1,899 to the huge 150cm Sigma or Classic ranges for around £9,499. All of them are available in stainless steel, some are also available in black or graphite, others also have a cream version. They're well made and very popular with keen cooks.
There's also a Colourange service available on certain models whereby you can choose your own bespoke colour. That adds quite a bit to the cost, though. About £1,500 for a 100cm twin oven Sigma model.
The New Aga is a Mercury

British designed and made, Mercury range cookers were launched in the year 2000 and have proved very popular with upmarket customers. The RC1090 (below) has an extra large oven, a standard oven, a separate grill and a five burner gas hob with characteristic "cattle grid" cast iron pan supports.
