Gas cooking ranges

I Love my gas stove-top (the oven is electric), 3 physical buttons with immediate response <3 !

Are there any dangers except the obvious burning your hand you have in mind? It's heavily regulated where I live so the danger of everything blowing up is quite small.

More research is emerging that gas stoves kick off carcinogens and are, in the US at least, often poorly ventilated.

Please turn on your vent hood everytime you cook with gas. We are getting rid of ours for induction.

I can't wait to switch mine to induction as well. I always run the fume hood with gas but it still feels like it's not capturing most of the fumes
