This is a cooker with a low level grill; I prefer these to eye level ones. The grill is actually classed as a second oven but we only use it for ... ...silver model but it is also available in brown, black or white.
Other than not having an eye level grill the rest of the cooker is fairly traditional in layout. The oven is at the bottom and like all gas ovens is numbered in marks rather than temperatures. It has 4 gas burners and adjustable shelving in the oven and adjustable heights for the grill pan which is included. The cooker itself is height adjustable so it can be fitted at the correct height ...

Quick review of Cannon Chesterfield C60GCS
The main oven failed to light after we had the cooker for 6 weeks. This happenned the week before Christmas. The repair man brought the wrong part and we were left without a cooker for Christmas. It is being replaced on 7/1 after 3 difficult weeks without an oven. The service people won't even give us an indication as to when they will arrive - just be in all day. No compensation offered for the ruined Christmas dinner - try cooking for a family of 8 on 4 hobs and a small upper oven that doesn't cook evenly anyway.
Hope the replacement behaves better, though I don't feel very confident about it. ...

Advantages: None unless you like phoning the service department Disadvantages: This cooker has quality assurance issues
...have now been returned to Cannon as being not fit for purpose.
Both suffered from identical faults. The top oven took 45 minutes to get to a stable temperature which was 50deg F below the set temperature. Food was burned at the back and uncooked at the front. On the first the cooling fan failed to function until it unjammed itself, noisey on both cookers. The shut off flap for the top oven on both failed to operate. A known fault on this (Chestergate) ...

Advantages: Stainless hob is easy to wipe down Disadvantages: Delayed uneven oven cooking
...5. We find that 20% longer cooking times are required when using the ovens. The ovens cook unevenly, 'zoned oven' means burnt at the back and uncooked at the front.
For us buying another Cannon has been a backward step.
Look around for a better appliance before buying this model. ...

Advantages: Looks good Disadvantages: Poor quality and low reliability
Judging by the other reviews here I am not alone in my negative experience of this cooker.
The first problem we had was that the oven would not stay lit - the flame would go out for no reason at all and the safety mechanism would literally "click" in.
The thermostat for the main oven has been problematic from day one despite being replaced on three occasions - subsequently there is no or very little control over the flame height: it's all or nothing. ... ...so it took us a while to notice that there was a problem. We even almost convinced ourselves that the oven is supposed to work like this (three replaced thermostats?!)
Now we find that the top oven is also faulty - tried to cook a small chicken which was uncooked on the inside and burned on the outside.
These observations and experiences seem to tally with that of other reviewers here.
I assume that there is some sort of design fault with this ...

Very poor quality, I would agree with most other comments. I have even complained to www.comparebase.com where I found it advertised as it is just awful quality for cooking and the build. ...
