AGA range cookers are available in 2, 3, 4 and 5 oven models with the 4 and 5 oven versions wider than the others. Traditional AGA range cookers have a boiling and simmering plate, or in newer models with one hotplate this can be set to either boiling or simmering mode.

While the classic AGA models are on all the time, the ovens and hotplates of the newer AGA range cookers (AGA 60, Total Control, 3 Series) can be switched on and off as required and the hotplates on the Dual Control cookers can be switched on and off, meaning there is heat in to the room but energy is not used unnecessarily. The AGA 60 is the smallest in the range and is just 60&nbsp;cm (2') wide.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.agaliving.com/products/aga-cast-iron-cookers|title=AGA Cast Iron Cookers|website=AGA Living}}</ref>

The Aga Range Cooker is known for its longevity, with many cookers still operating after more than 50 years. In 2009, in conjunction with  ''[[The Daily Telegraph]]'' and to celebrate the 80th anniversary of its founding, AGA Rangemaster set up a competition to find the oldest AGA range cooker still in use.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/lifestyle/interiors/3394888/Aga-cooker-Hot-on-the-trail-of-our-oldest-model.html |title=AGA cooker: Hot on the trail of our oldest AGA | work=The Daily Telegraph | location=London | first=Adam | last=Edwards | date=1 November 2008 | access-date=11 April 2020}}</ref> There were thousands of entries, but the winning cooker was installed in 1932 and belonged to the Hett family of Sussex.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/property/5095376/The-hunt-for-Britains-oldest-Aga.html |title=The hunt for Britain's oldest Aga | work=The Daily Telegraph | location=London | first=Adam | last=Edwards | date=7 April 2009 | access-date=11 April 2020}}</ref>
