The Esse Electric Range Cooker Specialist
The perfect blend of modern convenience and traditional range cooking.
The electric ESSE range cooker marks another milestone in range cooker design and incorporates some exciting and innovative features that are totally unique. Make no mistake, this latest ESSE is no pretender. It retains all the trademark range cooker characteristics, whilst providing unprecedented levels of control.

EC4i Electric Induction Cooker
Each electric oven in the EC4i can be operated independently so energy is not wasted heating ovens that are not in use.
The fan oven has achieved the coveted 'A' rating for energy efficiency, and together with the 'B' rated ovens and induction hob, the EC4i is clearly the most efficient cast iron range cooker available.
This well-equipped range cooker combines classic country style with technically-advanced, fuel-efficient features.
- 2kW, 37ltr Fan Oven
- 2kW, 37ltr Conventional Oven with 2kW Grill
- 900W, 25ltr Conventional Oven
- 900W, 25ltr Slow Oven (120deg C)
Because there is no flue to consider - it can be located anywhere within your kitchen. The cooking capacity of the EC4i is extremely impressive, with four ovens providing a generous 124 litres of combined oven space. Heating quickly from cold, the individual electric ovens can be turned on and off independently and the stylish induction hob offers the ultimate in energy-efficiency. The hob surround is created from hard-anodised aluminium, which is tougher than stainless steel.
The EC4i is hand-crafted with the same care and attention for which Esse has been renowned since 1854. It combines timeless Esse style with a range of energy-efficient, modern benefits and will last for generations, with very little maintenance.
Induction cooking
The EC4i features a five zone induction hob for more efficient cooking:
- 1 x 2400W induction zone with 3700W Boost
- 2 x 1850W induction zones with 2500W Boost
- 1 x 2300W induction zone with 3200W Boost
- 1 x 1400W induction zone with 1800W Boost
Because induction systems only heat the pan and not the cooking surface, it is much safer and makes the hob easier to clean. There are no flames or hot electric elements, so no more burnt-on food. Induction hobs are extremely responsive and offer precise control-pans will heat quickly for the boiling but induction zones also allow low simmering temperatures to be easily maintained for delicate sauces.
With no waste heat, induction is the most energy-efficient way of cooking; making it better for the environment and better for your pocket. Our tests have shown the EC4i induction hob will boil a pint of water 80% faster than its ceramic counterpart. The EC4i also features a timer function, power boost. pause and child lock.
