Ordering Your AGA Cooker

Posted on February 02, 2023 in AGA

AGA cookers are renowned for their quality, durability, and versatility in the kitchen. If you're considering ordering an AGA cooker, here are a few important factors to consider before making your purchase.

From size and fuel type to colour and accessories, there are several important factors to keep in mind when selecting an AGA cooker that will meet your needs and complement your home's décor.

In this article, we will take a closer look at everything you need to know before ordering your AGA cooker, so you can make an informed decision and enjoy years of delicious home-cooked meals.

Size

Choosing the right size for your AGA cooker depends on a number of factors, including the size of your kitchen, the number of people you cook for, and your cooking needs. AGA cookers are available in a range of sizes, from two-oven models to four-oven models.

A two-oven AGA cooker is ideal for small kitchens and households of 1-2 people. It can also be a good option if you have limited space in your kitchen.

A three-oven AGA cooker is the most popular size and is suitable for households of 2-4 people. It offers a good balance between cooking capacity and space requirements.

A four-oven AGA cooker is the largest size and is suitable for households of 4 or more people. It provides ample cooking capacity for large families or those who frequently entertain guests.

Before ordering, make sure to measure the space where you plan to install the cooker to ensure that you select the appropriate size.

Keep in mind that AGA cookers are not just for cooking, but they also provide warmth to the room they are in. This means that the larger the cooker, the more heat it will generate. You may want to consider this factor when selecting the appropriate size for your home.

Ultimately, the size of your AGA cooker should be based on your individual needs and preferences. Consider the number of people you will be cooking for, the size of your kitchen, and your cooking needs when selecting the appropriate size for your AGA cooker.

AGA FAQ's

Select a row to reveal the answer

What if I change my mind after ordering?

This depends when you have ordered your cooker and where the cooker is on the build schedule at AGA. So, if you change your mind on your colour choice within the first few days of ordering, we can usually change it without any issues to the delivery date. However, if it's after a few weeks the your delivery date will likely be pushed back.
When do you need to decide on the colour?

We understand that choosing a colour for your AGA is a tough decision. As vitreous enamel is effectively a glass product it is very difficult to portray the true colour on the website or in the brochure. Therefore, we strongly recommend you see an enamel sample before settling on a colour choice and placing an order with us. You can order your AGA colour sample of any shade by enquiring with us today. Please note that sample shades may vary slightly.
What colour shows dirt more?

To put it simply, the lighter the AGA, the more careful you will have to be. A little bit of care and maintenance will help you get the most from your cast-iron range cooker and it will reward you with a long service life.
A daily rub with a damp soapy cloth followed by a clean, dry cloth can help to keep your AGA sparkling clean. Try to wipe up any spills on the AGA top and front plates as soon as they occur. Like other range cookers, baked-on-food is more difficult to clean, but can usually be removed with AGA enamel cleaner and a damp cloth.
Never use oven cleaners or a cold wet cloth on the enamel. Milk, orange juice or anything containing acid can damage the enamel and should be wiped up immediately. The AGA E-cloth is brilliant and it may be worth keeping one on hand.
Will the colour of the module be the same as my old AGA?

If you are looking to purchase a freestanding module to go with your AGA cooker, colours may vary in shades depending on the batch. However, the enamelling team at AGA will work to their best ability to colour match in order to achieve your dream cooker.
