Why we’ve added STONE Cookers to the John Wray range

Three decades of working on Aga range cookers has taught us what people love about the format — the cast iron heart, the family kitchen anchor, the cooking character — and what frustrates them. Always-on running costs. Lighting routines on oil models. Slow heat-up from cold. Limited programmability.

STONE Cookers solves those frustrations without losing the range cooker character. The stone-lined ovens hold heat the way cast iron does, but the elements behind them are fully programmable, fully smart, and fully off when you want them off. The fast heat-up means you don’t need to commit to a cooker that’s running 24/7 just to be ready when you cook.

For Yorkshire, Cumbria and North East customers who’ve considered an Aga conversion but want something newer, smarter, or with a different aesthetic, STONE is the natural alternative. It sits comfortably alongside our reconditioned Aga cookers and our Aga electric conversion service as a third route to a beautiful, modern, electric range cooker.

How a STONE Cooker compares to a reconditioned Aga

If you’re weighing up a STONE Cooker against one of our reconditioned Aga cookers or an Aga electric conversion, the honest summary is this:

  • Choose a STONE Cooker if you want a brand-new, fully programmable, fast-heat-up range cooker with smart-home integration and a contemporary aesthetic. Stone-lined ovens, modern controls, made-to-order finish.
  • Choose a reconditioned Aga or Aga conversion if you want the iconic Aga aesthetic, cast iron heat retention, and a meaningfully lower price point (conversions from £4,150, supplied-and-fitted reconditioned from £7,400).

There is no wrong answer. Most customers who visit our showroom want to see both, side by side, before committing. We encourage that — there’s no substitute for cooking on something before you buy it.

Booking a showroom appointment

Our showroom is at Swale Lodge, Scorton Road, Brompton on Swale, Richmond, North Yorkshire DL10 7EQ. Appointments are required so we can give you our full attention, walk you through the cookers in operation, and put a written quote together while you’re there.

Visits typically take 45 to 90 minutes depending on which models you want to see and how many questions you have. We’ll happily run cookers up to temperature, demonstrate Pizza Mode, walk through the app, and talk through colour options.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I see a STONE Cooker in Yorkshire? At the John Wray Range Cookers showroom in Brompton on Swale, near Richmond, North Yorkshire (DL10 7EQ). All four STONE models are available to view by appointment.

Are STONE Cookers really British-made? Yes. Every STONE Cooker is hand-built at the company’s UK workshop in Wootton, Bedfordshire, using marine-grade stainless steel and stone-lined oven construction.

What’s special about a stone-lined oven? Stone holds and radiates heat in a way that’s closer to a wood-fired oven than a conventional electric one. It gives consistent oven temperatures, excellent heat retention, and a noticeably different cooking character — particularly evident in Pizza Mode, which reaches up to 375°C.

Is a STONE Cooker an alternative to an Aga? For some customers, yes. STONE is fully electric, fully programmable, and fast to heat up — directly addressing the running cost and lighting concerns of older oil-fired Aga models. The aesthetic is contemporary rather than traditional. We’d recommend visiting the showroom to compare both.

How much does a STONE Cooker cost? THE 600 starts at £7,750. THE 1100 from £14,250. THE 1700 from £17,250. The MPW Signature edition from £14,500. Hob upgrades and bespoke colour options are extra.

What’s the warranty? 7 years parts, 12 months labour, on every STONE Cooker. The warranty is honoured by John Wray Range Cookers as your retailer and by STONE as the manufacturer.

Do you deliver and install? Yes. Free delivery and installation within 100 miles of our showroom — covering Yorkshire, Cumbria, Lancashire, the North East, and parts of the East Midlands and Lincolnshire. Outside that radius we’ll quote based on postcode.

Can I order a bespoke colour? Yes. STONE offers over 25 standard front panel colours and bespoke matching is also available. We’ll talk through the options at your showroom appointment.

How long is the lead time? STONE Cookers are made to order. Lead times vary by model and configuration but are typically 8 to 12 weeks from order. We’ll confirm the lead time on your specific cooker at the time of order.

Do I need to commit at the showroom visit? No. Showroom appointments are no-pressure. Most customers visit to compare options, take measurements home, and make a decision in their own time.
