Choosing a gas stove

Tatyana, for a long time I could not choose between these models. But I read that Hephaestus's auto-ignition is very sensitive to the presence of grounding (and our house is very old, there is no grounding), and stopped at Burning. By that time, the promotion for Electrolux was over, and they went up a lot. Moreover, the boy in the store somehow unsuccessfully showed me these stoves ... he could not understand why the programmer was needed. )))

Hephaestus has an auto-ignition very sensitive to the presence of grounding

I didn't even know. Our house is also not new. But I did not observe any problems)) we have good plates))
But I still love to cook in a multicooker, and on the stove I only do what is inconvenient in a multicooker or if the cartoon is busy.

Ludmila, Class, what you need I will stop perhaps on this plate

[Ludmila]

LudmilaIn general, I bought myself such an excellent stove! Everything in it suits, but I just did not find an oven thermometer in it, please tell me how to turn it on, not a word in the instructions
I liked the electric ignition very much, a clear actuation was a little upset that there are no telescopic guides of the upper shelf as in the silver GI5322XF, a strange campaign of the company, there is no spit either The problem with the lack of a thermometer was solved by ordering this

The stove is super, we are in awe

Good day everyone, the time has come for us to change our DAKO diplomanta gas stove, and I would buy this again without hesitation, but it is not on sale.
Dear bakers, boys and girls, tell me, are you satisfied with your helpers and purchases?

[Svetlana]

Svetlana, Satisfied, to put it mildly, we are delighted. Fries, just with a bang, a gorgeous huge oven, a goose and a piglet can easily fit into it, the accuracy of divisions on the oven temperature setting knob is quite high, the difference with a thermometer is about 7 * C, a thermometer is basically not needed. The heating of the oven door and glass is small, thanks to the design, the inner glass can be removed to carry out T.O. The handles do not heat up at all during operation. Electric ignition works for 2-3 clicks of ignition. Yes, in this model there is no turbo burner, just as there is no spit, this is in the older model. A very convenient programmer that turns off the gas of the burners and ovens

Thank you, Alexander, I really trust the opinion of our bakers. A responsible choice lies ahead.



Alexander, of course, is not in the right topic, but thanks for the tip to the site of spare parts for our bread makers, the drive rod broke, ordered, delivered, everything quickly.

[Ludmila]

Ludmilaand Alexander,
How is your stove?
Not disappointed?
How are pies and pies made in it?

[Pirozhulya]

Pirozhulya, Luxurious stove, very satisfied, so far they have been making cupcakes from baked goods, we are adapting to the gas oven. A bit unaccustomed, the household has always had electric

Chic slab

I also want to buy one.
I also have an electric one now, but I want to go back to the gas stove. I used to have a good gas Kaiser, I wanted an electric one ... now I want gas again))

Well, I bought it

[Pirozhulya]

Pirozhulya, Congratulations on your purchase, share your impressions

So far, I only cooked buns, from bread dough, quickly to test the oven))
It bakes very well, the rolls were not greased with anything on top, the sugar in the dough is also scanty, but the top is perfectly browned.

[Pirozhulya]

Pirozhulya, Just wonderful pastries

I have already experienced it up and down))
The stove is super-duper, the oven too I changed the baking trays to aluminum ones, I like them better. For meat, vegetables, I use those that came with the kit.
I do not use shutdown programmers, as there was no need for now, I experienced everything.

[Pirozhulya]

Pirozhulya, Excellent result! Beautiful pastries We have a programming mode, it is in demand and quite often, add broth, pea soup, darken the meat, cool!

The stove is super, we are in awe

Alexander, tell me, can you swap the burners in your stove?

[Rita]

Rita, Alas, it is not possible for the user to do this, I'm not sure through the service. In principle, at first it was not entirely familiar, on the previous stove the burners were different, but as it turned out, this arrangement has its own logic. The front large burner is very convenient, the kettle is quickly boiled, it fries well, very dynamically and evenly

Good afternoon, bakers! So I have a question of replacing the stove. The oven faucet is jammed in my fire, and the repair is done through the road. While thinking to repair or change, but the search for a start ... Tell me in leaving it easier stainless steel or enamel? And on the GI 5322 WF-B, the handles are removable for cleaning? Thanks in advance for your answers.

[Elena]

Elena, Of course, enamel is easier to care for, you won't rub the stainless steel, the slightest fat, drops of water, fingers .... darkness. My friends have stainless steel, in general I do not recommend it.

Are the handles removable for cleaning on the GI 5322 WF-B?

I don’t know this, there was no need, as they don’t get dirty with me

Can you tell me how easy it is to care for stainless steel or enamel?

Definitely enamel and white.
I had brown enamel (I was tortured to wash it), it was stainless steel (this is generally a quiet horror), now white enamel is the easiest to care for.

you need to know the baking modes of different types of confectionery, maybe this is the problem .... Cupcakes, for example, try baking at 160 degrees. The biscuits are baked at 170-180. The oven is preheated 10 degrees more. I baked for a long time (about 10 years) on an old gas oven and selected the temperature by typing. Last week we bought Hephaestus for $ 250, it keeps the temperature excellent, the muffins were baked at 160 degrees for about 45 minutes and turned out great, the caps were without cracks, even ... I now have this Hephaestus gas stove - Kitchen stove GEFEST 5100- 02 0009. Color white is unambiguous to choose !!

So persistently Hephaestus is advertised ... I have nothing against, in principle. But I don't believe in their luxury quality, at all.
At the price of the plate, Hephaestus is on par or higher than the more famous and famous brands. For example Indesit, Electrolus, Gorenie, Zanussi. At one time I bought a Bosch stove, it cost the same as Hephaestus, 1: 1, with approximately the same characteristics.

[Tatianastep]

Tatianastep, Forgive who you answered, we didn't seem to have such a discussion

it keeps the temperature perfectly, at 160 degrees the muffins were baked for about 45 minutes and turned out great, the caps were without cracks, even ..

Where proof
Photos in the studio

I wrote my opinion about buying a new Hephaestus gas stove on the top post on choosing a gas oven, even though it was created in 2019. I live in Minsk, so I can easily buy a Hephaestus oven, especially in installments for 6 months). We also have an electric Bosch oven, in another apartment) and I also really like it. Hephaestus has a photo of muffins in the oven, but just registered on the site - will you teach how to attach a photo?)

teach me how to attach a photo?)

They often ask what kind of coating the plates are better, easier to maintain.
I am writing about the coverage.
My opinion is that white enamel is best.
I had a Belarusian white enamel plate, and then Bosch - also white enamel.
The quality of the enamel on these slabs differs like ... heaven and earth.
On Bosch, the enamel is washed once or twice, just wipe with a napkin, sometimes with the addition of funds, a very high-quality coating. The stove is probably 10 years old already, I forgot the date of purchase, but the coating looks like new. Because there was no need to rub.
But in my previous Belarusian one - all the dirt penetrated into the micropores of the enamel, it was not tactilely smooth, and cleaning - it took a lot of effort and money to wash.
I suppose that, perhaps, the quality of Belarusian producers has improved over the last year.
I do not insist that Bosch is the best stove, but in comparison with the other manufacturer, named above, it clearly wins. Especially at the same price, but it is possible that this is the case only in our region.

It is recommended to change the gas stove every 10 years. It is necessary to write - what kind of stove you had - Model and in what year you could not wash)). And so it turns out, this is an unfounded statement. And so the whole Internet is crammed with such comments (I didn't know what and when)), no one knows how to formulate thoughts and write comments with an evidence base. My model is not from a cheap, middle-price segment, there are cheap models, and I looked at them - I felt and decided to buy at a higher price, they differ, of course, in numbers and letters)). Washes perfectly and smooth to the touch - the enamel is excellent)). There was a choice between Hansa, Electrolux. We bought Hephaestus, because everything was fine - both the build quality and the price

I am writing about enamel, before Burning GI 5322 WF-B there was a Whirlpool for Ikea, the quality of enamel is not great, but quite tolerable. Gorene has smooth enamel as if glass, washable once or twice, super

[Pirozhulya]

Pirozhulya, Alexander, thank you for your answers. I wish you enjoy the new assistants.

[Hellen]

Hellen, Thank you
If you have any questions about this plate, please contact

Peace be with you bakers!

I also have a Hephaestus gas stove with a gas oven.
I am satisfied with the baking, the only minus of the gas stoves, there is no way to set the temperature to 59-140 degrees. For the rest, there are no complaints, bread, pies, buns, muffins, bakes everything. But I baked biscuits in a multicooker, I didn’t even try it in the oven, because the biscuit in my multicooker is perfect.
