Tips for choosing equipment
Buying a tabletop gas stove for a summer house is not too difficult. You just need to know which parameters you really should pay attention to, and what you can safely turn a blind eye to.
Chinese-made equipment is cheaper than Russian and Belarusian ones, but its metal is much thinner. This makes the body weaker and flimsier. When turning the levers, the too light slab “rides” on the surface.
To ensure stability, it must be screwed to a table or some other base.
If you plan to occasionally appear at the dacha and cook in a minimal amount, you should choose a stove with one burner of medium power. It doesn’t use extra gas, but it will quickly boil a kettle or pot and heat up simple dishes taken from a city apartment.
For those who are going to spend a lot of time at the dacha, invite friends or neighbors to visit and make dinner, a stove with two powerful burners, a durable body and strong grates is more suitable. It can be used to quickly cook borscht, potatoes, dumplings and compote, sterilize jars for jam or salads, and heat semi-finished meat products.
If you often have small children at your dacha, it makes sense to consider purchasing a stove with rotary switch locking. This option will reduce to zero the likelihood of a child accidentally turning on the gas.
Models with child protection are sold a little more expensive, but these costs are justified. Family safety and home safety cost more than a couple of hundred rubles, which you will have to pay for a product with switch locking.
