i only use propane in the kitchen,
how-some-ever I am now enjoying
some soup cooked on the wood stove.

i recently replaced an old set of
burners (stove-top only) with a
combination stove/oven. this freed
up a whole bunch of wall space that
was taken up with an oven/broiler
which was a built-in unit. Although
the storage shelves which were under the
stove top burners are no longer there,
the space where the oven/broiler is
now opened up for shelves--and the
storage space is over double.

the appliances made for natural gas need
to be adapted for use with propane/LPG.
they used to install an orafice which
would reduce tne size of opening the
fuel went thru. Now they adjust it by
just truning a screw, i think no added
parts required, at least for the Hotpoint.

I did get the Piezo, electronic ignition one
as it saves fuel by not having pilot lights
burning all the time, plus the safety factor
if the pilot lights blow out, the gas still
keep pumping out into the air...yikes!

it reqires electricity. more expensive models
also have a light to see in the oven, a clock
and a timer for the oven, etc.

I find that for canning i can balance the kettle
over two of the burners and get enough heat to
boil stuff.
