I know it’s off topic but the stove design looks really weird to me. Why would you design a stove with all the knobs at the very back where they are hard to reach?
Only reason I can think is to prevent kids from touching them
100%. Electric ranges tend to have a lot of safety features built in and/or come with them. They also come with a clamp for the leg of the stove to be slid into so if a child were to climb on the door it wouldn’t tip over.
And pets. I’ve got two fur monsters that like to jump on things when we’re not around to correct, no matter how many times we’ve taught them not to. They won’t do it when we’re home, but as soon as we’re away, counter surfing is the rule of the day, and with front-of-oven knobs on a gas stove we have come home multiple times to a small gas leak. We’ve taken to removing the knobs when it’s not in use, which is fine but annoying. I’d much prefer back-of-oven knobs though.
Or butts at a crowded party.
Or butts at a crowded party.
Or firefighters at headquarters during mealtime. Our kitchen has them on the front and I’ve walked in more than once to a room full of gas because someone hit the dial with their hip/butt and didn’t realize.
Do you live in soviet panel house?
No, why? This would be in the northeastern US.
Even smallest soviet kitchen can hold 5 adults without problems with stove, why would big american kitchens have any problems with stoves?
5 people is not a crowded party. Think more like a college house party you might see in an American movie, although they can get a lot more crowded than that.
Whoa! That’s a lot of people.
The point is electric stoves I know have knobs where you can’t accidentally turn them. The photo isn’t mine, but I had same model and same color:
Knobs there are… stiff? tough? Well, as I said, they require some force and fall into one of marked positions.
Every electric stove I’ve used in my 30 years of life in Canada has had the knobs at the back.

It’s common in America, especially with electric stoves. All gas stoves I’ve seen use the front, though.
This is what I was wondering. (Gas vs Electric) Wires are easy and cheap to route vs gas lines.
I think when they lean over open flame, something in their mind clicks and they think that something is definetly wrong.
So small children can’t reach them.
I have not seen a electric convection stove in 10 years. Aren’t they all induction these days?
And my plate top have the controls digitally/touch sensitive area on the top itself
Hub, I’ve yet to live in a house with an induction stove. All electric ones have either been ancient coil ones or glass top convection stoves. Would love to get an induction one someday, though.
So gas is 100% for kids to play, but not electric? Ok.
What, you don’t like your arm being incinerated when you go to turn the heat off?
What’s wrong with you, that’s the best bit.
It’s induction and unless you are dragging your arm across the top the likelihood of burning yourself is nil.
Even while cooking when water boils and oil splashes?
That is an issue regardless of the mode of heating
Exactly my point
If your oil or water is splashing that high then you shouldn’t be cooking anyways.
Water boils, read what I wrote
It sure does but if it’s flying out of your pot high enough to hit your arm then you shouldn’t be cooking.
Aaaand you are still talking about splashing, not about boiling and evaporation. Do you at least know what steam is?
To make them harder to reach so that you (or a child) don’t accidentally turn one of the burners on when you don’t intend to use it.
It looks a bit old fashioned tbh. In Norway it’s all separate tops and ovens. All the tops are induction and the controls are mostly touch sensitive areas on the top itself.
Glad it’s not just me, I’ve always thought this too. Surely you have to put your arms over the hot stuff?
To burn your arms of course!
I’ve used both. Think it’s more a style choice than anything.
I was at a house party that caught on fire because someone leaned against the knobs when they were lower in the front and caught something on fire which then caught cabinets on fire and quickly the whole kitchen. I think someone has a box of pizza on there.
Imagine your kid posting silly pictures of your face on the internet, probably without consent.

whats a good android app for this?
want to use it to door dash
If a grown man loving an appliance is wrong, I don’t want to be right
At least it ain’t something about hating his wife…
That man did not stop trying.
He leaned in and is killin’ it.
Classic case of, “I’m not giving up, I’m giving in.”
TIL that phones do that thing.
That’s frickin hilarious lol. I put in a new stove last year and wish I would’ve done this ngl lol
Lol I would ground my son if he posted a pic of me doing derpy shit on the Internet
Look at his age. His child is likely also a grown adult he wouldn’t be able to ground anyway(also likely the reason for the picture; they likely don’t even live one enough for a quick visit).
how do u get a heart front cam feature
Inquiring minds…
Save those pictures, one day you will look back on them and they will bring you peace.
Sincerely, A son who misses his father
So drive to your dad, and show him how to turn it off.
I haven’t laughed this hard at a post in a long time
…oh, somebody tell me how to turn this on so i can use it for my punch list next week!..
I think I have the same stove
Can’t a man just love stove?
“Stove my beloved” - him probably
