Stove or cooktops?

[Winston001]

The electric range. Which has an oven.



But the kitchen is a foreign country where I go to nuke stuff...kinda Ukraine for the wife and kids...so whadda I know...

Gas hob, once you get used to it you will never go back.

My oven crapped out about 2 years ago, still works on grill, but is now basically redundant.

Just to be clear, my understanding is that a stove is a freestanding unit that has both an oven and a cooktop. Whereas a cooktop/hob is a seperate item as is an oven. Yeah, I know, I am a pendantic fucker!
You think that is bad, try to find out the definition of a bungalow! No-one will be able to tell you, incl real estate agents!

the poms call a single storey house a bungalow....i call houses of the 20 s californian Bungalows.....

It's a Cooker... it cooks shit.

agree

we've got a gas hob and electric oven.

If we can afford it I would like to replace them and the extractor this year. Particularly the extractor. Protip: if you have a 600 wide hob, get a900 wide extractor hood.

Dont buy Smeg, ours is a piece of crap.

I call an extractor a range hood

I prefer gas. It gets the spotting knives up to temperature the fastest.

Oh dear! Are you spotting? You can get little pads for that.

Not a 4 bed-roomed villa

Damn, still too close to claim definitive win over my wife.
Can't a man just be right for once?

C'mon guys, keep the answer coming.

gas cook top - electric oven

I prefer cooking on gas as the heat is more controlable .. but I don't like the idea of naked flames in Gas ovens (dunno what is happening with the gas, the burnt gas ansd the food) so I've always had an electric oven.

Before we moved recently, we had a wood stove - which was great to cook with ...

[Swoop]

Ceramic cooktop.
I pulled out the stove and installed the hob and an underbench oven. Much nicer.

It was a term invented in England by a bunch of brummie brick layers. They ran out of bricks on a house and said "bung-a-low roof on it!".

what's a stove? what's a cooktop?, what's this kitchen thing people keep talking about?
