Leisure Gourmet 60 Gas

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.

Utter Rubbish

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.

Awful Cooker Leisure Gourmet Gas Cooker

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

Grill Repaired, Repaired &repaired Again!!!!!!

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.

Dreadful And Dangerous Cooker. Avoid.

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!

Bottom Oven Nothing But A Let Down

Overpriced Underperforming Costly

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.

Worst Oven Ive Ever Used!!

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.

Q&A

sarojpurba

I have the Leisure Gourmet Classic. When I open the door to the top oven/grill this set the fan on even though the over/grill is not in use. Should the fan not go on when it reaches a certain temperature, at the moment I takes forever to grill anything as the fan does not allow it to get hot enough and toast come out dry rather than toast. It also means that if the door is left open the fan continues to run. Is there a fault with my cooker?

Mendez

This is something I wrote to the manufacturers about but received no reply. After some research it appears that the reason for the fan to be on whenever the door is opened is so that the plastic k.n.o.b.s won't have the chrome peel due to heat - even when the grill is not alight. Short answer is - there is nothing wrong with your cooker per se, it's simply the way it has been designed (badly)and as for your toast the only solution is to do what we had to do and that is to go and buy a toaster.

Where can I get parts manual for free?

Enter the following into your search engine - leisurecooker - Manuals - BrochuresManuals

robmcbride

Neither of the front, right or rear right igniters spark when the button is pressed, any ideas on how to fix this?

robmcbride

There is very little gas coming out of the front right hand burner even though the nozzle is clear. Can I just unscrew the unit below to clear it?

Gleeson2

My bottom oven won't light but rest of the oven is working fine. Is it safe to use it and what could be the problem?

tina.and.keith

I have recently purchased a Gormet Classic double oven. Everything is working fine but the flame in the bottom oven stays low no matter what the it is set to. Can you help?

tina.and.keith

Tried that Mendez. Doesn't work :(

HelenJeffers

The bottom (large) oven is not lighting properly. I have had it professionally cleaned, and it still does not work now. Purchased in 2011 - it is a Gourmet Classic 60 Double gas oven What can I do?

modplod

I have also now got the Oven and Grill not lighting as it should. My cooker has been described by the Engineer as being 'Show Room Condition' so I doubt that having it Professionally cleaned has anything to do with your problem. My Cooker is needing the Thermal Couplings, Gas Safety Device and Ignition Componants renewed, this should take place hopefully, within the next few days, however it is worth noting that when the Engineer visited last week he Condemned the Cooker as Unsafe and made me Sign a Declaration 'NOT TO USE THE COOKER' in any way which also included the Hob until the Repairs and obligatory Gas Safety Tests have been fulfilled. My advice would be, to have the Cooker completely checked by a Qualified Gas Engineer before it is used by you or your family for the obvious reasons. As a Retired Police Officer of many years service, I have seen the effects of Gas Explosions and beleive me they are devastating and tradgically they have had drastic results. It is obvious that this Manufacturer is in 'Self Denial' and if they are minded to Sue me, I am more than happy to accomodate them, as I said before, as an Ex Police Officer the Courts do not frighten me nor do High Paid Lawyers in Cheap Suits. Any Reputable Gas Engineer, who inspects your Cooker is duty bound by Law to advise you to make good any repairs by a Fully Qualified and Certified Gas Engineer, they are also Duty Bound to inform you NOT to use the Gas Appliance until the obligatory repairs have been done and the obligatory safety tests are carried out. If you use the Cooker against advice from a Qualified Gas Engineer then You are breaking the law.

My oven decides to just not light every so often. How do I reset it to light again? I can't remember the button combination.

Mendez

Hold the gas mark projection (previously known as a [(k)(n)(o)(b)] in until ignition takes place and continue to hold. The top oven is a different matter as it is a pain in the rear end.

Reason for brackets jobsworths on this site won't allow correct terminology due to pc brigade.
