Why choose the Gas Cooker with Oven
A standing cooker with gas burners on top and an oven below, running on an LPG cylinder. Some models mix gas burners with electric hot plates for power or gas shortages.
- Burners and oven in one unit
- Auto ignition saves matches
- Mixed gas/electric models work through either shortage
- Wide models handle big pots for parties
Why choose the Induction Cooker
An electric cooktop that heats the pot directly with a magnetic field. It is fast, precise and safer than open flames, but needs magnetic cookware.
- Heats faster than most electric hot plates
- No open flame, and the surface stays cooler
- Precise temperature control
- Easy to wipe clean
