It looks as good as it cooks

This is a cook’s cooker with total capability.

The AGA Masterchef combines one of the most advanced and versatile gas or ceramic hotplate configurations, with two electric fan ovens, a high speed ceramic grill and an electric slow cooking oven.

From a stir fry to a Sunday roast and all things in-between – casseroles, curries, a delicious crème caramel cooked to perfection in its gentle, traditional AGA style oven; griddled steak or fresh sea bass evenly steamed on the long, central burner; bruschetta timed to the second; puddings; warmed plates ready – the AGA Masterchef, as you would expect, does it all beautifully.

Build quality

You can tell when something’s soundly built. You can see it at a glance and feel it at a touch. (Which is exactly what we would encourage you to do if it’s time you updated your cooking arrangements).

The Masterchef, like any AGA, is built to last, durability being intrinsic to every component. The hotplate tray, pan supports and control fascia are vitreous enamelled. The drop down oven doors are solid cast aluminium with vitreous enamelled steel liners that close with a satisfying clunk.

The latest electronic technology is used throughout. On the gas model the burners automatically ignite and each one is fitted with ‘Flame Failure’ safety. On the ceramic model each element has the assurance of ‘Hob Hot’ indication. Each oven has stayclean linings and the lower left oven is fully programmable. For your convenience, the larger ovens are supplied with two shelves and five adjustable positions.

Specially developed gas burners to provide different heat ratings to suit all your needs

A hotplate to conjure with

The Masterchef is a highly responsive and versatile range cooker. The Gas Hotplate has one fast and two semi-rapid burners, a high heat twin flame wok burner for stir frying and a rapid burner with a set simmer position. There is also a long central burner which can be used to heat the lift off griddle. This non-stick, cast aluminium griddle has flat and ribbed sections with a generous oil/fat catchment area, for healthy griddling of steaks, vegetables, burgers and fish etc. Removable cast iron professional-grade pan supports are fitted for easy slideability. A stylish splashback for the hotplate is included as standard.

Slow cooking - true to AGA

To the left of the grill is the electric slow cooking oven. This provides truly controllable low temperatures for cooking dishes such as casseroles, curries or crème caramel to perfection, and an ideal way to warm plates and serving dishes.

Three ovens, no limits

The two main electric fan ovens are large enough to hold an 11kg (24lb) turkey. Echoing the solidity of a traditional AGA range, the cast aluminium doors on the Masterchef can be removed so that in future, if you wish to change the colour of your Masterchef, it is as simple as slotting on a new set of doors. Specially developed oven linings help keep themselves clean whilst cooking.
