JAKARTA - Choosing the ideal cooking stove is not only about a more modern kitchen appearance, but also about comfort and even efficiency when cooking.

The ideal stove should be able to provide precise heat control, be easy to use, and be safe for long-term use.

With the development of kitchen technology, the built-in gas stove is now equipped with various features designed to support these needs. One of the many innovations presented is a more detailed flame level setting.

This feature allows users to adjust the heat more accurately, from a small flame for cooking processes that require caution, to a large flame for quick cooking.

"The gas-fired stove has now been equipped with a more complete flame level setting, so users can control the heat more precisely according to cooking needs," explained Teddy Wijaya, Vice President of Marketing Modena in a press statement from the Velvet Series to VOI, Friday, April 17.

In addition to fire control, ease of use is also an important factor. Some stoves have been equipped with an instant ignition system that allows the fire to light with just one turn of the knob. This certainly makes it easier for users, especially when cooking in a hurry.

Another feature that is starting to be widely implemented is integration with other kitchen devices, such as cooker hoods. This technology allows both devices to work automatically and in sync.

When a large flame is used, the cooker hood's suction power will increase to reduce smoke and odor. Conversely, when the flame is small, the suction power will adjust to remain efficient.

"We have innovations such as Built-in Hob types HABK and HAGY which can be automatically synchronized with the cooker hood of the same type. This innovation makes the process of sucking smoke work more optimally and provides a more seamless cooking experience," he said.

In terms of safety, the ideal planting stove is generally equipped with safety systems such as automatic gas flow cut-off when the fire goes out. This feature is important to prevent the risk of gas leaks that can be dangerous.

Material is also a major consideration. Metal-based furnaces such as brass are known to be more heat resistant and stable. Meanwhile, the stove's surface is coated with heat-resistant or tempered glass material to help increase durability while making cleaning easier.

For maintenance, matte finishing designs are now increasingly in demand because they can disguise oil stains, water, and fingerprints. In addition to giving an elegant look, this surface is also easier to maintain in everyday use.

Overall, choosing a cooking stove with complete features ranging from precision fire control, safety systems, durable materials, to ease of maintenance is a relevant choice for a modern kitchen.

In addition, the design that blends with the countertop, this type of stove not only improves aesthetics, but also makes the kitchen area more neat and functional for the long term.
