The appliance that elicits anger and frustrated at it’s mere sight. The treacherous device that never worked right.

    Gas stove. Literally playing with fire every time I need to light the front left burner. Usually I have to let enough gas come out to have the neighboring burner’s igniter light it up. I keep my distance just in case.

      Just get a long refillable butane lighter? Or one of those electric arc lighters? (Some of those have a long extension)

      For me, the “power burner” is so weak it can’t bring a pot of water to boil or properly saute anything. Everything online says that it must be because the gas outlets are dirty, but they are spotless.

      I have to “prime” one of my burners. I’ll turn it on the power boil setting for a second or two to let gas out and then back to the ignite setting to spark it
