The durable knobs are arranged neatly in the middle bottom. Each of the knobs come with a symbol so you can easy to control the corresponding burner.

I think all of you know how to operate the lighting process. Just simply press the knob in and turn anticlockwise. Hold it until the burner is ignited.

When you are cooking, make sure the ventilation of your kitchen is well enough because gas cooking results in the production of heat and moisture in the room.

[TOP PICK] This is Frigidaire Gas Cooktop. It weighs 50 pounds and measures 30 x 22 x 5 inches.

This model is a 30 inches gas cooktop with 5 burners. If you are a family of 4-6, it will work best for you. If you want to buy it for a couple, it may be too large unless you love cooking very much and always use all the burners.

[EDITOR CHOICE] This is Empava Gas Stove Top. It weighs 30 pounds and measures 35.4 x 20.5 x 4.5 inches.

If your dishwasher is big enough, it will save you a lot of time. You can simply put all the grates inside and turn on the machine.

This model uses Natural Gas (NG). If it’s not suitable for you, you can replace it with Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) nozzles. But you need to buy the pipe additionally because it’s not included for you. The original one is only suitable for NG.

It comes with a safety protection system. When no flame is detected, the gas will turn off automatically to avoid gas leakage. I like this design because it can protect our house. It also minimizes the hazard of using a gas appliance.

[EDITOR CHOICE] This is Empava Gas Stove Cooktop. It weighs 49.1 pounds and measures 29.9 x 20.1 x 4.5 inches.

Both LPG and NG nozzles are included so it can work with LPG or NG. Only the LPG pipe is not included. It gives you great flexibility to use different types of the gas source.

It has an auto shut-off protection technology that prevents gas leaks. When the cooktop detects no flame, it will shut off automatically to keep your home and family safe. I think it’s an important feature for every gas cooktop.

The surface is made of stain and heat discoloration resistant tempered glass that’s easy to clean and easy to maintain. The shiny surface is also beautiful than stainless steel.

Ramblewood high efficiency 2 burner gas cooktop GC2-43N

[BUDGET PRODUCT] This is Ramblewood Gas Cooktop. It weighs 13 pounds and measures 20 x 12 x 3 inches.

It’s a small gas cooktop. If you have a family of 4-6, I think it should be too small for you. Otherwise, you have to wait for a long time for every meal. I think 2 burners are best for the couple’s use.

It features an electric ignition that uses a 1.5V DC battery and it’s included for your convenience. But, I suggest you buy one more in case. If you have no spare battery when it’s running out, don’t’ worry, you can use the lighter to light the flame instead. It’s troublesome but at least you can cook.

The original setting is to use natural gas. If your home is not using natural gas, don’t worry, the LPG/Propane conversion burner orifice/valve is included for you so you don’t need to buy to additionally.

The power of 2 sealed burners are as follow:

• Top Hob 8400 BTU
• Bottom Hob 5800 BTU

When you see the silver surface, I think you should know that is stainless steel but not tempered glass. It’s rust-resistant and stain-resistant. It’s also easy to clean that same with tempered glass.

Similarly, the pot stand is made of heavy cast iron.

This model also comes with the thermal couple module that will shut off the gas supply if no flame is detected. It can protect the home and family. I know many people worry about gas leakage.

Therefore, when you buy a gas cooktop, remember to check carefully whether it has this kind of safety feature or not.

Empava EMPV-36GC5B9S 36″ Recessed Gas Stove Cooktop

This is Empava Gas Stove Cooktop. It weighs 36 pounds and measures 35.4 x 20 x 3.5 inches.

The main feature of this model is it comes with 5 Italy SABAF Sealed Burners. The main difference compared with other burners is sealed burner doesn’t have openings to trap food so you never need to worry the food will stick to the burner.

The flame that comes out from the sealed burner can also be adjusted precisely so you can cook each of the dishes with the perfect heat control.

In my opinion, the sealed burner looks more beautiful than a normal burner.

In this model, you can also use LPG or NG as a gas source for your convenience and both nozzles are included for you so you can change it at any time.

You can even use it outdoor. At that time, you can use the proper nozzle for the LPG.

It comes with a pulse ignition but you have to connect it to the electricity. The cable is 4 feet long which’s enough for the outlet. It can also work manually without electricity but you have to use a lighter instead. Therefore, it will work fine outdoor.

• 2 X Semi rapid burner 1.75KW/H
• 1 X Auxiliary burner 1.0KW/H

The surface is made of stainless steel so the silver color lets you see the stain easily. You can clean and maintenance easier. The corrosion resistance protects the surface at any time no matter what you cooking.

I think the most special feature is the enclosed chassis that is designed to prevent airflow from affecting combustion stability during cooking.

The surface is not flat so it can catch the overflow of liquid so it won’t make your table messy. Try to imagine, if the surface is flat, the liquid will flow to the table and it will be difficult to clean.

It comes with a thermocouple flame-out failure system that will detect the flame during cooking. If the flame is not detected, it will shut off the gas automatically which helps to avoid gas leakage.

The 3 supports are made of cast iron that’s heavy and stable. All of them coated with enamel so it’s high-temperature resistance and not easy to rust.

GASLAND Chef GH60SF 4 Burners Built-in Gas Hob

This is GASLAND Gas Hob. It weighs 19.5 pounds and measures 22.8 x 19.7 x 3.9 inches.

This model is also a smaller model. The main differences with the previous one are the brand and the location of the knobs. In this model, the knobs are located at the bottom right.

Another difference is this model is a built-in gas stovetop so you can’t use it as a table-top style. If you want to use it anywhere, this one is not suitable for you.

Someone may find the weight of this model is heavier than other stainless steel models because it comes with a tempered glass top.

Honestly, tempered glass is much stylish and elegant than stainless steel. But, I think stainless steel is easier to maintain and durable. Stainless steel will deform but won’t be broken.

The silver durable melt-proof metal knobs look very sharp compared to the black tempered glass surface.

The 3 grates are always made of heavy-duty flat cast iron because it is easy to clean. You can wash it in the sink at any time. If the stain is too hard to clean, you can use a stainless steel ball at any time.

How To Choose The Best Rated Gas Cooktops

Tempered Glass Surface/Stainless Steel Surface

Actually, the only difference is the appearance, both of them are durable and beautiful. You can choose it according to your preference.

Auto Shut Off

When no flame is detected during cooking, the cooking will shut off the gas automatically to save your home and family.

If the model you want to buy doesn’t have this feature, don’t buy and choose other models.

Grates

It’s either large grate or individual grates. If it comes with individual grates, 5 burners will have 5 grates. If it’s a large grate, 2 burners will share one grate.

The only concern I can think of is large grates may be too large so you can not put them in the dishwasher. If you want to use a dishwasher every time, I think individual grates will be better.

Electronic Ignition

Normally, it will have electronic ignition but it needs to connect to the electricity. Otherwise, you have to use lighter or other flames instead.

Built in Style/Table Top Style

In some models, it can be used as both types. If you want to use it as a tabletop style, remember to read the product detail carefully.

Conversion Kit

Normally, most of the model can use LPG or NG but not all the model comes with the nozzles for you. If it’s not, you have to buy it yourself. If you want to save money, you can buy the model that includes the nozzle for you.

Conclusion

In the end, I think all of you already know how to choose the best one for your family. Actually, I think you have discovered that most of the models are very similar. It’s either a stainless steel surface or a tempered glass surface. It’s either 4 burners or 5 burners.
