Leisure Gourmet Classic Double Oven Electric Cooker

I want to say too. I am not impressed.

Only had the cooker 3 months the oven door handle fell of can't be fixed now after three years the grill has broken .. Do not reconment it at all worse cooker I ever bought

Cooker only about four years old. The oven door handle fell off after only a year, and was impossible to put back; the enamel is rusting round the glass and looks awful and the whole cooker finally passed away with a smell of burning rubber a couple of weeks ago. Very expensive mistake.

so muchnot long after purchasing this oven the plastic silver enamel came off the knobs. contacted shop who told me to contact manufacturer, they told me knobs are not covered on the warranty and I would have to buy new ones at a ridiculous price. few months later the element bars on the grill started to sag

Only had this oven a couple of weeks when the silver coating on the knob's started to peel away..

Contacted the supplier who informed me fixtures and fittings on the appliance are not covered in the warranty..

Gashed my fingers several times..

If you peel the silver coating it is a nasty cheap white plastic behind the coating..

No a cheap oven and definitely wouldn't buy it again..

I've had my cooker for 3 yrs so far the heating element has been replaced after only 1yr.im currently on my 3rd fan motor.the last broke after less than 2 months.grill is in the top oven,this is useless as you turn on the top oven and preheat.pop in the food,it constantly reheats the top oven so the grill comes on and burns the top of your food! THE most stupid design.feel totally ripped off and hate the whole thing.

I say I am more lucky than most other owners because I bought the cooker secondhand as a stop gap measure when our old cooker died thus saving £300. It is only two years old and i am just amazed at how badly made this cooker is, not only is it poor quality materials but the finish is poor and it must have been designed after a particularly good night at the pub if it was designed at all.

Who could put a towel rail where it obscures the controls so you can't tell what the settings are and even if the rail wasn't there the pathetic bit of paint has come off the knobs so it's quesswork anyway.

The cooker is not enamelled but painted and the paint is lifting and giving a crinkle finish where it has not already fallen off.

The top oven grill is really awful as it either burns or gently warms and who the hell designed the grill pan handle? My god it's a classic, you can't put it on when the pan is on a flat surface and as soon as you put it down it falls off so you need an oven glove ready at all times.

I have only given this one star as there were no zeros or negatives offered but it is travesty to rate it that high.

Should you buy one? Well I feel ripped off having paid £60 pounds for it so make your own mind up. As they say act in haste repent at leisure.

PS unless you are deaf you need ear defenders with the oven on and yes I really hate it and my wife is giving me grief for buying it.

I Bought this cooker just under 3 years ago as it had good reviews on the retailers website and looked sturdy and attractive. Thats where any positive comments end I'm afraid. The cooker has been replaced once and I have since had to have the top hob completely replaced as itwas collapsing in on itself. It has had no less than 4 new oven elements and tonight, I have noticed that the outer edge of the hob area has rusted and looks broken and ready to collapse in on it self. On complaining, I'm told this is cosmetic and down to wear and tear. Thisheap of junk replaced a 15 year old Creda that was still immaculate and that I gave away! Steer clear of this cooker and anything made by this and associated brands and save yourself the £475 this dangerous piece of equipment cost me.

this oven was nothing but bad news,It broke down 5 times in 6 months .The cooker engineer told me that this was a common fault...DO NOT BUY ONE

A very attractive sturdy-looking cooker, and that's where the complements end. We've had this article in our re-designed kitchen now for four months, it's had a new thermostat which wasn't needed but the mechanic must have thought we'd be impressed by him fitting it. The top oven is still a nightmare, has it come on? will it stay on? have I made sure that the grill-pan handle is fixed O.K.? Why does it only toast half of each slice then I need to turn the bread thro' 180 degrees? I shouldn't need to bend down to look into the thing to see if it's lit. I can go on and on about inconsistent temperature settings etc.

How I wish I'd read these reports on here before lashing out £450 on what looked perfect but is NOT FIT FOR PURPOSE.
