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 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 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.

Almost everything about this tinny excuse for a cooker is what is wrong with it. Grill/oven won't stay alight if it gets too hot!!!!!! So, trying to use both ovens is so frustrating it's just not worth it. I could list so many things I would be here all day. The latest, 4 mins ago, has me in despair, the igniter button has gone inside somewhere. It also has dreadful little grooves/assembly joins which are extremely difficult to keep grease free. Suggest you get a camping stove before this one. It's got to GO.....

I have previously owned a leisure range single oven for 12 years, a lovely cooker and no issues what so ever, so when it needed to be replaced we decided to stick to what we knew and had been happy with. This new model is over priced, looks good but lacks in ability, the grill is a waste of time and lights when it wants to, stays lit if it wants to and the grill bars themselves are not much bigger than that of a camping stove, the oven does not maintain the correct heat setting and food is either undercooked based on the recommended setting or turning it up to cook food and burning it, considering the experience we have had with this range of cooker the 'one' and only element we like is the look, I am not a materialistic person and had I have been sure I was buying good quality I would not have minded what I brought, we just thought we could trust from our own experience.

I have had this cooker for a few years now, I too loved the look of it and thought Leisure was a good name. I noticed straight away that it wasn't as hot as my old cooker and I had to turn up the temperature to get anything cooked. I had an engineer out because I thought it was faulty, he changed a part but it was still the same afterwards. The grill was the same, low temperature. The grill hasn't worked for over a year now, I had to buy a toaster!! It lights and comes on when you hold the nob down, but as soon as you let it go, it goes off. On the odd occasion when I crave cheese on toast I actually sit on the floor holding the nob down until it finally melts some cheese! Also the top oven often goes out on it's own while cooking and you don't notice until you go to check progress that it's still uncooked/raw. I think I'm just going to get rid of it now and look for a new cooker. Obviously keeping away from Leisure ones. It's such a shame as it looks lovely in my kitchen.

Long story short. Switched on main oven, ignition kept clicking away but oven was lite. After a minute clicking faded. Fine I thought, opened the oven door, flames going mad, switched it all off but gas still coming from the oven!!!! Scared to death, I ran and switched off the gas supply to the house, called emergency gas, they arrived and disconnected the cooker. Rang Leisure, they sent a sub contractor who said 3 parts faulty, said he would order them, after a week rang Leisure, they didn't know what I was talking about! Several call later to Leisure (also known as Beco) Finally was told I would get a call back. They have now left me a messenger to say Leisure will fix the cooker (as a guesture of good will!) To summarise; extremely dangerous situation, gas coming from cooker after it was switched off, no one seems to want to take responsibility, after well over a week, I get a message to say it will be fixed as guesture of good will - "No sorry for putting your life in danger, just "as a guesture of good will" feel llike telling them I'm refusing there guesture and tell them to stick it where the sun doesn't shine! My family and I have not had a cooked meal for over a week - not on a great wage so can't afford to eat out! Sick and tired of salad and sandwiches and feel very let down by Leisures response. All in all - A LOAD OF RUBBISH

I purchased this cooker 3 years ago and it has been nothing but trouble. After 8 months the gas controls chrome tape started to peel off I asked for new ones but they only had white plastic ones. Then after 18 months the grill would not light and one of the top rings. I had it fixed and now it wont light again. These cookers look great and they are more expensive than the average cooker but they are a load of rubbish. I would advise any body not to buy one.

I had to wait several years before I could afford a replacement and I had the great mis-fortune of picking this rubbish. Although the oven gets to temperature it doesn't hold it. Cooking anything can take at least twice as long as it should. It is impossible to cook a joint and roast potatoes or even to roast a chicken on its own in any time that would be considered normal. Given that it takes so long I would consider it a health risk from salmonella or worse. Stay away from any company that sells this junk.

Bought this cooker for my new kitchen, trouble with top oven, had guy out on numerous occasions, just never worked. Now the grill won't work, will occasionally stay on after five attempts of igniting. Nightmare at Christmas or when entertaining, never enough working to cook properly, I will have to change it, could kick myself because the one I discarded worked fine, learnt my lesson big style, total waste of money.

Bought this cooker in 2014 and was very impressed with the build and looks but once it was installed we realised what a duff piece of kitchen ware this is. The fan in the top oven/grill comes on as soon as the door is opened - WHY! The oven will go out on occasions if it feels like it. The grill has just two settings, you can either have it on or off there is no variation. The grill igniter is sited at the front of the oven space - ideally placed for hitting with the grill pan when being inserted. The handle for the grill pan is one of the most flimsy contraptions ever seen. The rail which one supposes is there for oven gloves to hang on is in exactly the right place to obscure from sight the knobs and therefore their setting. Compared to our old (no longer in production) cooker this rates less than a one star.

I purchased this oven in 2012! I loved the look of it, but it does not live up to expectations, the top oven takes for ever to ignite and then it goes out, and it is the worst cooker I have ever had to clean out. the back panel on the hob has gone white and won't come off I don't recommend this cooker at all
