A '''Cooking Range''' is an object used primarily to cook [[food]] via the [[Cooking]] skill. To cook raw food, simply ''use'' it on the range. Any food can be cooked on a range, except for special cases that need to be cooked on a [[fire]] using an [[iron spit]]. Players can also burn [[seaweed]] on a range to turn it into [[soda ash]].

All ranges have lower burn rate than fires, and the [[Cook-o-matic 25]] range in [[Lumbridge Castle]] has an even lower burn rate. However, this does not eliminate the player's risk of burning food, until the player has reached the necessary cooking level not to burn.

There are many other cooking areas that may be used as range, but do not have the name of "range". For example, the sulphur vents in the [[TzHaar City]] can be used as a range. Fireplaces can also be utilised to cook food (although there are some foods, such as [[potato]]es, that you require a true range to cook and will burn on these cooking areas). [[Pay-to-play|Members]] may also build a variety of ranges, ovens and ranges in the [[kitchen]] of their house.

Ranges had a long unfixed problem, being that the player would cook the food at the coal gate rather than on the cooking pan. This is not a glitch but a logical issue. It was claimed to be fixed on 17 September 2009, but still has not been fixed at certain location, namely Al Kharid. It is interesting to note that only the range at Lumbridge was free of that problem, but it should not indicate it is superior because characters cook at this range in the "correct" way.

==Locations==

Ranges are located in many other places than the areas mentioned below. They are marked on a player's [[minimap]] by the [[File:Rangeicon.png|Range]] icon. Notable ranges are listed here. Players may also subsequently use burning logs to cook their food on.

===Free-to-play===

* The [[Cook-o-matic 25]] in the kitchen of [[Lumbridge Castle]]
* Upstairs in [[Cook's Guild]] - must be above Cooking level 32 to enter. If all of the hard [[Varrock Tasks]] are completed, a bank inside the guild is accessible (only) to [[members]]
* House directly west of the [[Edgeville]]'s bank
* Kitchen of [[Varrock Castle]]
* In the upstairs apartment section of the [[Varrock Swordshop]]
* Dororan and Gudrun's house, south of the [[Grand Exchange]]
* Several houses south of the [[Party Room]] (surrounding the central [[fountain]]) in [[Falador]]
* [[Al Kharid]], south of the [[furnace]], the closest range to a bank for free-to-play
* [[Port Sarim]], south of [[Grum's Gold Exchange]] - useful if returning from [[Karamja]] to cook and bank high level fish like lobsters and swordfish in [[Draynor Village]] on F2P worlds
* [[Rimmington]], in the house north of the witch's cauldron
* [[Draynor Manor]], although very rarely used and almost inaccessible
* [[Bandit Camp (Wilderness)]], very inconvenient unless the player is making [[pizza]]
* [[Daemonheim]], within various dungeons (which requires [[Dungeoneering/Woodcutting|branches]] to be placed inside to be [[Dungeoneering/Firemaking|lit]])

===Pay-to-play===

* The house just east of the bank in [[Catherby]] - this is useful when fishing at the nearby [[fishing spot]]s
* Caleb's House, north-east of bank in [[Catherby]]
* House to the west of [[Lunar Isle]] bank. See picture below.
* [[Berty]] includes a range.
* The House just south of the anvils in [[Seers' Village]]
* Kitchen of [[Sinclair Mansion]]
* The first level of the [[Cook's Guild]], if you have completed the hard level of difficulty for the [[Varrock Tasks]], Closest proper range to a bank
* Directly south of the bank in [[Zanaris]]
* The [[kitchen]] of a player's house, where members can build one of a variety of cooking devices, depending on their [[Construction]] level
* [[Nardah]] Clay oven
* The clay oven in [[Neitiznot]] is close to a 1-click bank
* East of the [[Dead Man's Chest]] in Brimhaven
* Directly west of the bank in [[Port Phasmatys]]

==Sulphur vents / Sulphur pit==

Sulphur vents were small, round holes in volcanic rock from which hot sulphur and gases rose. They were found only in the [[TzHaar City]]. They were used to cook food on. One was located relatively close to the [[bank]], making cooking fast. Oddly, when the player was cooking on one, he/she copied the movement that he/she used for cooking on a fire although the vent had a lower burning rate than a normal range.

NOTE: Using potatoes on sulphur vents always resulted in burning the potato.

With the remodeling of the TzHaar City, all Sulphur vents have been removed, a Sulphur pit which functions as a range can now be found in the city (marked by a range icon in the map).
