Leisure Gourmet 60 Gas

bought this one in red to go with my kitchen ,what a big mistake .Had trouble with the oven from day one ,every time some one came to see to it said nothing wrong with it Oven goes off after its been lit or when you are cooking .Cost a fortune having to chuck meat out .At the minute we are saving for a new cooker .So in the mean while have to sit and watch cooker in case it goes off what a waste of £650 down the drain ,only paid that thinking it would last us out. Looks nice shame it did not work .Wish i had read reviews

I concur with most of the other reviews. I went for this cooker 3 years ago,not for looks, but because I wanted a gas oven and grill that incorporated a timer. This combination proved difficult to buy. I have had nothing but trouble with it since purchase. Within the warranty period the grill was not heating up sufficiently. We had it repaired and after the warranty ran out the fan stopped working properly. . To repair it would cost nearly half the price of new cooker. The knobs which I thought were metal were plastic covered by some kind of foil to simulate metal. They have since melted and burnt black and now the timer has now ceased working. I think that it is the greatest heap of rubbish on the market purporting to be a cooker and would strongly advise purchasers to steer well clear.

like others with reviews we have problems the grill not working and heat of the the

oven we after alter the settings accordingly not right i would recommend it to no one never mind friends it is not good

I have had this cooker now for 3 years and like another reviewer am currently saving up to buy a decent cooker. I too went for looks over functionality but never again. Like others on here I can't get the grill to stay alight, can only achieve this by wedging a table spoon between control nob and chrome grab handle...bad. The oven temps are difficult to regulate, gas mark 4 in the recipe is gas mark 7 on this thing. I can't believe these are still being sold unless the obvious design faults have been ironed out. DO NOT BUY.

I purchased this cooker in 2013, it has never functioned correctly , the ignition for the main oven keeps clicking and won't come out of ignition mode, the ignition switch was not fit for purpose from day one, engineer came but came back with the wrong part, took us a while to phone them back to repair I'm sure they just think that you can take time off work at will, this would have been the 3rd day off, by then the warranty had expired, leisure knowing that the item is faulty before the warranty expired wash there hands of it and are disinterested. I have cut my fingers on the metal around the knobs as it is so sharp, they also heat up to such an extent when the cooker is on you have to remember this as I have burnt myself on a couple occasions. The oven is at present is not useable. Given that he interest from the company it is any wonder that they make such a poor and inferior product. Buyer be aware. The screws for the curved back plate were not in the packaging I asked for the screws to fit they have never been sent. Cooker is attractive

Bought this Leisure Gourmet GR6GV-MK11 Gas cooker from a gas shop in Burnley 3 years ago(closed down now)however I have been saving for a new cooker ever since. Felt the Wow factor as soon as we saw it, so old fashioned looking yet small enough for the traditional small kitchen with no room for a double stove. Grill never worked from new, but came and repaired it, it stopped working 2 days later and came to repair again such an hassle having to take time of work for repairs. The grills never worked since... It will light by match but I have to use something to wedge between the grill nobK and the chrome grill handle bar for it to stay on. The ball helps but you can't regulate the heat as it has to stay in one position or the ball falls out (good tip for ya!). I am so embarrassed when visitors turn up for burnt bacon butties as I have to explain the tennis ball routine and assure them that I haven't gone senile.

I am looking for a new cooker now but won't go for looks again.

I have had this cooker just under 3 years and it is dangerous and very poor quality. I have had numerous repairs and currently, waiting for another repair as 2 months after the cooker element failed and was replaced, it has now blown my sockets and fuseboard. Deadly, dangerous thing that I wasted almost £500 on. Avoid at all costs.

Leisure when I previously spoke with them were disinterested and the last major repair that saw the complete hob replaced, the retailer, all but washed their hands of the thing. My previous cooker. A Creda, was 15 years old and went to someone as a freebie. It's still going strong!

Go this cooker but wish i didnt had got it back in may and been nothing but a let down 1st wouldnt light got that sorted then would heat up enought now bottom oven dont work at all if anyone is thinking of buying one leave it where it is

I will be taking steps this week to invoke a no nonsense replacement or cash back taken out when purchased. The comments in this review stream are all what I have experienced. Bottom main over takes ages to get going, never seems to get up to temperature with food taking twice as long at least to cook than our old cheaper model. Top oven fan is a pain, why is it constantly on when grilling food it only serves to heat up the kitchen. You have to hold the ignition switch for ages for the burners and the grill, its a pain when it goes off, its trial and error for the grill.

since the whole point of this unit is to heat food the rest of the review e.g. ease of use is in my opinion irrelevant. In summary its a very poor performing but good looking unit. Time to go.

having been used to an electric oven and previously a gas oven we were well used to cooking on either...

This oven though has very very poor regulation of temperature and this appears to not be a mechanical fault, some days it cooks fine but generally I find it to not cook at the required temperature, a roast chicken takes 4 hours!!..simple fish cakes take an hour!. I shall be buying another cooker quite soon..

I wish I had read reviews before purchasing this piece of worthless junk.
