Range cooker or built in double oven?

I too love my Quooker.

I recommend Miele as a brand. You can go to their showroom to see all of the ovens working - and if you do an 'experience day' you get a discount.
2 things I suggest looking at:
A steam oven, or more usefully, a combi-steam. I love mine!
A deep warming drawer that functions like a slow oven.

If room for only 2, I'd have an oven and a combi-steam, but in our kitchen, in the '2 oven' space we can have all 3.
I am surrounded by Aga / Rayburn-lovers, who will not admit that my combination puts theirs to shame!
And definitely easy to clean and maintain. Not cheap (much cheaper than many range ovens though) and much more efficient to run.

My Stoves double oven is on it's last legs.
I would like to replace it with a large capacity single oven that would fit into the space. I don't need a grill at all. The problem is, I can't find one! ☹️

May just be me but I think Range types are the heart of the kitchen. We got rid of an ancient Aga when we redid the kitchen extension and replaced it with a duel fuel Rangemaster.
Does the job perfectly. We have had a Quooker for a few years now and I wouldn’t be without one.

We have a dual fuel range master and it looks as new as the day we bought it - 15 years ago. The gas hob isn’t great to clean though . We’re moving to somewhere that has no gas and I think will go for induction as I get on ok with them and as there is no gas ..... not sure about eye level ovens though .... If you get a range cooker at least you can change again if it breaks down - more awkward with built in things and they do tend to by pricier I think

Had a new kitchen 15 years ago with gas hob, electric double oven (one is a fan). When the ovens needed replacing, they slotted out (?) and the new unit slotted in.
As with lots of threads in Gransnet, think of your parents when they were the age you'll be in ten years time - what would have suited them best?

I really like two double ovens- identical, side by side built in electric fan ovens, so that I can use the smaller oven in one for just us, and both ovens - four if necessary - for entertaining. An induction hob has been a greaat addtion to the kitchen, and everything is so easy to clean.

Gosh, you all seem to have massive kitchens! I couldn't possibly fit a range or a double oven in. The microwave has to sit in the utility room as it is. I have an electric fan oven and a gas hob, I can't get on with an electric hob at all.

What age are you thinking of Chardy?

I think that's the best combination, Deedaa although a gas hob is more difficult to clean.

Envying all your fancy-smancy kitchens! Mine is very basic electric range with glass top electric (not induction).

Luckily we have two kitchens... downstairs was once a granny suite which we took over when kids were older. Now we have the whole house including the downstairs kitchen. I use the oven down there when doing a larger dinner, and we also have another full size fridge, mostly used for beverages. When DH is cleaning fish or crab he is relegated to downstairs.
