A brand-new gas cooker has many benefits, including being more energy-efficient, having more functionality and being a new cooker, should inspire you to cook more!
Below are some things to consider when you are buying a brand-new gas cooker. Basically, what a check and look out for.
Space-saving cookers
The most common type of gas cooker will have four hob unit’s, and will most likely come in a standard size. This applies to every gas cooker on the market, but it will give you an idea of how much space it will likely take up. It is a good idea to first measure the space in your kitchen where you want the cooker to go, then do a quick check online for the dimensions of other cookers you are currently looking at.
Styling
If you have the money for a budget gas cooker, then obviously your choices will be more limited than having an open budget. You will not necessarily cook any better with an expensive gas cooker, but it may fit into the look of your kitchen and have much better features than a cheaper model. If you do not cook that often and are not too worried about the style or looks of cooker, then there are plenty on the market which should fit into your budget. Look at some review websites to see what other people are saying about the cookers you are currently looking at.
Cooker usage
How much you use your cooker can be a deciding factor on which model you choose. As most four hob gas cookers are roughly the same dimensions, the decision will come down to if you want a basic model or a top end model. Shortlist brands and models which fit your basic criteria of cooking. If you do a lot of baking, then you will need an oven compartments which is quite large with lots of shelves. If you grill a lot of food, then look for a gas cooker that has a grill area that is easy to access, clean and looks of quality.
One of the main benefits of gas cookers is that the heat is virtually instant, with great controllable temperature. You can regulate the heat that goes to your food very effectively with the gas cooker, unlike electric cookers. This is the same for both budget and premium models. This also means you potentially will save on energy bills, as you only use the energy you need to cook your food.
When choosing your gas cooker, look for the most popular brands and their current models as a first port of call. This will give you a general idea of what is available on the market at the moment. If you then look at some of the most popular online retailers, they may have deals and offers available.
Make a list of all the gas cookers from popular brands that fits within your budget and the functionality you require from the gas cooker. Read some reviews on what other people are saying about the gas cookers they have bought. This will give you a good starting point for what is available and what you can afford. Once you have shortlisted a few makes and models, you shouldn’t be far-off making the final decision on getting something that fits your budget. Also, make sure you get an extended warranty with a brand-new gas cooker.
