Our new Ilve range had a rattling fan. The sales outlet gave me the number for Ilve warranty repairs and a call there resulted in Harpal coming out to fix it. He was excellent: very careful with moving the range out in our new kitchen, fixed the problem and then gave us some really helpful tips on how to use all the features. Delighted with every aspect of the service from MRCR.

Problem sorted with zero hassle and maximum efficiency. Friendly, professional and helpful. My voicemail was returned before even 9am, and the range cooker parts identified and sent out the very same day. I would recommend you to anyone in need whose products you stock, Thank you!

Dear Sue & Darrell

I contacted your sales team at lunchtime today regarding a diffuser cover for an old Britannia cooker hood. The call was taken by Vanessa and instantly she was helpful and informative and advised that I forward photos to identify the part required. She called back later to advise the part was unavailable and probably ceased manufacture. However, she offered to keep my details on file in case anything changed. At 5pm things did change as she managed to locate the part in one of your engineers vans and has arranged for it to be posted directly onto me. Vanessa was an absolute star and did everything possible to secure the part needed in record time whilst keeping me fully informed. She is a credit to your company and a wonderful ambassador.

 I’ve been an executive chef in some of the best restaurants and hotels around the world – but mainly in London. I chose my Bertazzoni 1200 Professional gas oven over 8 years ago after searching the best product. It’s by far the best oven I have ever used in a domestic setting – easy to clean, great looking, strongly built parts and the ovens have top of the range technology. It’s the Ferrari of a range cooker which is more unique as the paint work is done by the same company that paint the Ferrari cars. They also have a superb service department (I changed my seals) even though they have one of the lowest repairs % of any oven in the UK. 

Cooking with my Bertazzoni stove is never a chore but always a pleasure – it’s the best in the price range by far and I have no negatives.

We’ve had our Britannia range cooker for 15 years. It had it’s first service today. Worn out parts were replaced and chipped dial facia was replaced. I was shown how to use different functions of main oven which I was unaware of until today. It feels like a new cooker. Efficient, knowledgeable and thorough job. Would highly recommend.

Adam did a great job on our 17 year old Britannia Dynasty cooker, I’ve spent the last year looking to replace it but today’s Britannia cookers just don’t seem to be of the same quality so I decided to invest in refurbishing the old one. I’m so glad I did! Thanks to Adam I now understand my cooker better than I ever have and it looks good as new.
Thanks again

We want to thank you for the excellent service we received today. Adam was very knowledgeable and has taught us a number of new things about our 9 year old cooker! The required repairs were carried out efficiently and it really is no exaggeration to say that our cooker looks as good as new. We were very impressed with the care and consideration he took throughout and will definitely look to use you again.

Hello Sue
I just wanted to let you know how absolutely delighted we are with the service and clean that Darrell and Bill carried out on our 20 year old Britannia cooker yesterday. It is no exaggeration to say that it is like new again! Reading the feedback on your website, I thought it sounded too good to be true, but it is indeed all true. The end result exceeded my expectations and I am very grateful for all the hard work that Darrell and Bill put in. Thoroughly professional, friendly and very helpful.
Thank you again.

This team is highly professional and efficient from the phone call to book an appointment with Sue to Darrell cleaning, servicing and replacing parts. After 14 years my cooker now looks and performs like it’s new, I now intend to get my Britannia cooker serviced each year.
 
Vicky from Suckley,Worcestershire

.A great service from start to finish; Sue was most helpful in quoting prices for possible repairs and parts and Adam was probably the quietest and politest professional I’ve met. After 2 years in a garage my Rangemaster needed a lot of care and attention and it now looks like new along with peace of mind that it’s safe. Highly recommended, thank you.

Thank you for your professional service today Darrell.Your customer service is excellent arrived on time, your knowledge of our Ilve range was excellent. Not only did you service it you gave us some tips on using our new range along with recipe ideas,how to spit roast a chicken and how to use this function going above and beyond expectation. Thank you we will definitely recommend your services to others and look up some recipes on your website until our next service.
Thanks again
 
Faith from Stafford

Thank you so much for your excellent service.
I particularly appreciated:
Sue’s communication skills, not only regarding the scheduling of the appointment, but also for listening to my thoughts(incorrect as it turned out) on what might be wrong and communicating them with Darrell.
Darrell for his thorough and professional overhaul and repair of our cooker.
Above all, Darrell’s impromptu tutorial on how to use the cooker. We have had it for roughly ten years and had had no idea it had so many useful functions. Worth the call-out fee for the tutorial alone!
Highly recommended.

Great service – Sue called me back almost instantly when I had a query about my new Ilve cooker. Darrell was full of information and tips on how to get the best out of both ovens, and even the best cleaning methods.
Thank you both.

Darrell you were so clean & tidy a pleasure to have you in our house, and more recipes from Sue please Can’t wait for my new trivets to come. Thank you
 
Dan & Beck of Rutland

The service from the company was great right from calling Sue for scheduling the service to Darrell carrying out the service. Darrell was very knowledgeable about our Bertazzonni, and carried out the service carefully and thoroughly. His passion, neatness and proffessionalism for his work were very reassuring. He moved our oven out with skill and carefulness, something other so called official agents had said would take dismantling ! Darrell was also very informative and showed us functions we didn’t even know our oven could do ! I will definitely use Midland Range Cooker repair again and gladly recommend Darrel’s work.

Great company – rang as one of the doors on my Britannia range cooker had broken. They were very helpful. Repaired the door and serviced the cooker – it now looks amazing. Very pleased. I wish all my attempts to repair things in the home went as smoothly as this. They did what they said and did it well – very pleased. very knowledgeable and helpful & I feel like I now have a brand new range cooker.
Thank you!

If only Darrell had serviced my 8 year old Britannia range years ago it would have enabled me to use all the functions properly and not to have had any ‘mistakes’. He was thorough, courteous and informative. He replaced a number of faulty parts and reduced both oven temperatures to their correct and accurate levels. He not only fixed the range but also offered cooking ideas and recipe tips Darrell is a gem.

First Sue and then Darrell. What a very lovely and professional team. I first used Darrell when he was part of the Britannia team. He was pretty damned good then. He just got better and better. I didn’t know he likes cake (Verona and Ed Barnes of Halesowen), but I can tell he loves his job and the products he workes with. Our 17 year old Range now looks and behaves perfectly. Sue and Darrell didn’t just meet expectations but exceeded them… by a long way. Thank you.

Darrell quickly solved why our Britannia oven was tripping the electric fuse box. The service from start to finish was excellent. He clearly knows his job which comes across in his professional approach and the quality of the workmanship. His attention to detail was very clear; as he even pointed out we had two holes in the base of the oven. These where immediately repaired and we were advised not to place any items directly on the base of the oven, as this was the likely cause of the problem. He is a very tidy worker, who clearly has a passion for cooking. He willing shared his knowledge so that we now understand the different oven settings and are looking forward to cooking that Michelin starred meal!
We will definitely use him again

What a pleasure it was to meet Darrell and benefit from his unparalleled knowledge and expertise on the superb Britannia range cooker. We learned so many tips, tricks and techniques which otherwise would have taken ages and much experimentation to master. He carries all the parts you could need to do on the spot repairs and renovations and is THE MAN to call!! Thank you Darrell 🙂

We had more or less decided to write off our Britannia cooker after mice seriously damaged the internal wiring. We couldn’t find anyone who could repair it and couldn’t agree on what we should buy to replace it. Then miraculously we heard about Darrell. He came – he saw – he conquered! It is now very nearly like new, everything works, we have been saved a great deal of money and domestic harmony has been restored. Many thanks!

Dear Darrell,
Just had to let you know that I have used the rotisserie today for the first time!
I used your creamy chicken with tagliatelle recipe, it was really well received by our visiting family and, even though I say it myself, it was delicious.
So, as Ilve do not give new owners a recipe book as yet, please keep up the good work and keep the recipes coming !
With kind regards,

Darrell came to repair and service our Britannia oven. Was here for over 3 hours and now it is looking as though it is brand new again. He was friendly, courteous with lots of advice on how to get the best from our oven. When finished, he left the area clean and tidy. We are planning to include an annual service in our household budget. We would recommend him to anyone.

The main oven of our 14 year old oven stopped working. Fortunately we found Darrel who agreed to come even though we are well out of his area. He was conscientious and very efficient with helpful tips on how to get the best results when using the cooker. He has now restored it to its Majestic prime and we have happily arranged to have regular services with him. Sue, his wife, was really helpful too.

Feeling very happy. After thinking my 11 year old range was about to go to cooker heaven a very nice man from Midland range came round, after 2 oven elements, several switches, new wiring, igniter button and timer button being fixed some reconditioned parts being changed over – it is like I have a new range.
Can definitely recommend them excellent service.
