The Leisure CLB60GCK is a 60cm freestanding gas cooker in black, pairing a four-burner gas hob with two gas oven cavities and an integrated grill. It aims to deliver traditional gas cooking with just enough convenience to keep cleaning and everyday use straightforward.
Leisure is known for solid, no-nonsense cookers, and this model fits that brief: conventional gas ovens rather than fancy fan or smart features, but with catalytic liners and simple rotary controls to keep maintenance and operation easy. Priced in the mid-range for gas cookers, it targets households that cook regularly but do not need a full-blown range.
With a 4.4 out of 5 user rating from well over 700 reviews, it is clearly popular with owners, suggesting reliable performance and good satisfaction over time.
The Leisure CLB60GCK suits small to medium households that cook most days and like the responsiveness of gas. The 34-litre main cavity is on the compact side, but the second 78-litre cavity gives you generous overall space, so you can comfortably handle a Sunday roast or batch cooking when needed.
If you are upgrading from an older basic gas cooker, this is a sensible mid-range step. It keeps to familiar, straightforward rotary dials and button ignition, so there is no learning curve, but you benefit from modern touches like catalytic stay-clean liners and removable shelf runners.
It is a good fit for buyers with a standard 60cm gap who want the feel of a slightly more ‘range-style’ setup without moving to a full 90cm range cooker. The A and A+ energy ratings help if you cook often and want to keep running costs in check.
If you are a keen baker wanting ultra-even, fan-assisted results or lots of programmable cooking modes, this conventional gas set-up may feel a bit basic. However, if reliability, gas control and easy cleaning come first, it hits the sweet spot.
Two gas cavities give you flexibility. You can roast in one oven while using the grill or cooking side dishes in the other, making it easier to juggle family meals or entertaining.
Catalytic stay-clean liners in the main cavity are a big plus. They absorb and burn off grease at higher temperatures, meaning far less time spent scrubbing baked-on splatters.
The four-burner gas hob offers a practical mix of burner powers up to 2900W, so you can simmer gently or bring pans up to the boil quickly. Traditional rotary controls at the front keep everything intuitive and easy to see.
Energy ratings of A for the main cavity and A+ for the second help limit gas consumption, which is reassuring if the cooker will see daily use.
Safety is covered by flame failure devices, which automatically cut the gas if a flame goes out – an important reassurance in busy kitchens.
The main oven capacity of 34 litres is relatively small, so if you rely on a single large cavity for big trays or multiple shelves, you may find it restrictive and end up using the second oven more often.
Both ovens are conventional gas rather than fan-assisted. Heat distribution will be more traditional, which can mean slightly more attention to shelf positioning and turning trays mid-cook, especially for baking.
There is no interior light listed for the main cavity, only for the second, so checking on food in the main oven may require opening the door and letting heat escape.
The one-year manufacturer warranty is on the short side for a major appliance. Extended cover may be worth considering if you want longer-term peace of mind.
You do not get extras like a wok burner, griddle or advanced timers and auto-cooking programmes, which some rivals at similar price points now include.
Day to day, the Leisure CLB60GCK is designed to be straightforward. The front-mounted rotary dials clearly control each burner and oven, and the button ignition means you are not reaching around the back with matches or lighters. Once lit, the gas hob responds instantly, making it easy to move from a rolling boil to a gentle simmer.
The split between a smaller main oven and a large second cavity takes a little getting used to, but it can work well in practice. The smaller cavity heats up more quickly for everyday meals, while the larger one comes into its own for roasting joints or using multiple shelves when you have guests.
Cleaning is less of a chore than with many older gas cookers. The catalytic liners in the main oven help break down grease as you cook, so a quick wipe after use is often all that is needed. Removable shelf runners also make it easier to get into corners when you want to give the oven a more thorough clean.
The drop-down door on the main cavity and side-opening door on the second give you flexible access, though you will want to plan where you stand when loading and unloading. Adjustable feet help level the cooker on uneven floors so trays sit flat and cook more evenly.
At the heart of the CLB60GCK is a pair of gas conventional ovens with a combined power output of 1470W. While that figure is modest compared to some electric ovens, gas heats food differently, with moisture retention that many people prefer for roasts and casseroles. The main cavity is geared towards everyday cooking, while the larger second cavity provides the extra capacity you need at weekends and holidays.
The hob features four burners with outputs ranging from 1000W for gentle simmering, up to 2900W for fast boiling and searing. This spread of power levels makes it easy to match pans to burners so you are not wasting gas or struggling to control delicate sauces. The standard enamel pan supports and gas layout are familiar and practical for most home cooks.
Cooking flexibility is boosted by a full-width variable-rate grill, which lets you toast, brown and finish dishes with decent precision. The ability to use the grill with the door open or closed adds convenience and helps you adapt to different types of food and preferred cooking styles.
On the usability side, the built-in viewing window allows you to keep an eye on dishes without constantly opening the door, though the lack of a main-cavity light limits visibility a little. The second cavity’s interior light helps when you are cooking multiple trays or larger roasts.
Safety and simplicity are clearly priorities. Flame failure devices provide an important safety net by cutting off gas if the flame goes out, and there is no complex touch control panel to navigate. For many households, this blend of traditional gas performance and basic conveniences will feel reassuring and dependable, even if it lacks the advanced programmes or fan-assisted options found on more feature-packed models.
Sitting in the mid-range of gas cooker pricing, the Leisure CLB60GCK offers a solid balance of capacity, flexibility and convenience for the money. You are paying for two usable gas ovens, a four-burner hob and practical features like catalytic liners and flame failure safety, rather than for Wi‑Fi connectivity or elaborate digital controls.
The strong user rating of 4.4 out of 5 from 728 reviews suggests that owners feel they get good long-term value, with the cooker performing reliably in real kitchens. That positive feedback carries weight, particularly when choosing an appliance you are likely to keep for years.
It is not the cheapest 60cm gas cooker around, and the single-year warranty and lack of fan cooking or a wok burner do slightly blunt its value proposition for feature hunters. However, if you want a straightforward, dependable gas cooker with twin cavities and easier cleaning, the price feels fair for what you get.
For tight budgets or those who rarely cook, a simpler single-oven model might represent better value. But for regular family use, this Leisure strikes a sensible balance between capability and cost.
The Leisure CLB60GCK is a strong choice if you want a traditional gas cooker with the practicality of two ovens and a four-burner hob, without stepping up to a full range cooker. Its combination of catalytic liners, flame failure devices and straightforward controls makes it well suited to busy households that prioritise reliability and ease of use over bells and whistles.
The smaller main oven capacity, lack of fan assistance and very basic warranty are worth keeping in mind, especially if you are a keen baker or expect more advanced features for the price. Yet the generous secondary cavity and well-judged hob layout do a lot to balance those drawbacks.
If you are after a no-fuss, gas-only cooker that can comfortably handle everyday meals and occasional big family feasts, the CLB60GCK is a sensible, well-liked option that should serve you reliably for years with minimal cleaning effort.
