Stylish design and wide functionality are the basic requirements for modern kitchen stoves. Today it's not just a device for cooking, but real designer masterpieces, equipped with the latest technology.
Gas stoves: selection rules
All the manufacturers guarantee the functionality and reliability of their products, so the following parameters should serve as a guide for choosing a gas cooker:
- size and number of burners;
- material from which the hob is made;
- characteristics of the oven;
- availability of additional functions.
We choose the brand
It should be noted that each brand "acts" in a certain price category. For example, the popular brand Bosch has a tendency to rather expensive products, but such companies as Slovenian Gorenie and Byelorussian Hephaestus have gained popularity thanks to their inexpensive and reliable solutions.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of the gas cookers of these manufacturers, and what kind of equipment deserves more attention - "Hephaestus" or "Burning", we will find out by comparative analysis of several new models.
