Review of cheap gas stoves Bosch and Weissgauff

January 28, 2021

In recent years, gas hobs have become increasingly popular because they are more practical and are gradually replacing gas stoves. To find out which gas hob is more reliable, more convenient and functional, the review of two German brands below: Bosch and Weissgauff will help you.

The main difference between cheap gas stoves is the number of burners, the minimum of which is 2, and the maximum - 5. When choosing, this factor must be taken into account, because the more burners, the more food you can cook at the same time.

Bosch PCP611B90E

The Bosch gas hob from the German manufacturer is equipped with four burners, two of which are standard size , and two are large and small. The switches are located in the center, so it is convenient to install the panel in any corner of the kitchen.

Pros:

The switch buttons are dark in color, so grease or handprints don't show up easily;
Strong cast iron grates can withstand the weight of large pots;
Even after prolonged use of the utensils, the handles do not heat up;
If the gas flame suddenly goes out, the stove automatically cuts off the gas supply;
Ignition can be done using a simple button;
The enameled surface also does not deteriorate over time.

Cons:

In order to securely install the panel in the kitchen design, it is necessary to seal the housing lid with a screw. Due to the cream color of the enamel, any color screw (except white and gray) will show through the panel;
It is difficult to buy a built-in oven of the same design;
The retro design is reminiscent of Soviet gas stoves;
When you press the power button, the stove ignites within a few seconds - this is a safety and security factor, but it does create a bit of discomfort that you have to get used to.

Weissgauff HGG 751 OWR

This model entered the best gas stove rating thanks to its relatively low price, the presence of five burners, and positive user reviews.

Pros:

In a short time, for a large number of people, you can prepare 4-5 dishes;
You can place empty dishes on the stove so that they are always close at hand and at the same time do not take up much space on the table;
The switches and electric lighter have been working without problems for years;
The surface is easily cleaned of food residues;
Auto ignition is not noisy.

Cons:

The kit includes curved bars that you need to straighten to support the heavy weight of the boilers;
The grates of express ovens are far from the center, so it is impossible to place small diameter pans on them;
The size of the stove (76x51 cm) requires space in the kitchen;
The switches are located close to each other, which can cause your fingers to get caught on neighboring buttons.
