Hi All,has anyone bought a cooker up North or across the pond?there seems to be big savings to be made.we are interested in a dual fuel range cooker dont know which type yet,looking at Belling Kensington and Rangemaster.Anyone recommend a supplier ?
I bought a Rangemaster Elan (dual-fuel) from Hardys in Kilkeel (near Newry I think,) just dealt with them over the phone. They were very helpful and it was worth my while financially going cross border!
If you order from Hardys of Kilkeel and tell them that you need a cooker to comply with Republic regulations, they will have the necessary devices added at the manufacture stage (flame failure) ( you may have to wait a little longer than usual for this).
I bought from Hardy's and got a qualified plumber to install it - no problems! If buying from a retailer in the South , still have to get it installed by someone who knows what they are doing!
Check that any warranty provided will be valid if you buy outside the Republic. I know someone who ran into problems with a Stanley Range when trying to use the warranty afterwards. They had bought in the north but were living in the south.
