Review on πŸ”₯ Empava 30 Inch Gas Stove Cooktop - 5 Sealed Burners, NG/LPG Convertible, Stainless Steel, Silver by Eric Budd

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Defective igniter for 2 burners!

Packaging needs improvement. Styrofoam everywhere. The burners were in the box and I was lucky they didn't break anything else. It comes with 1/2 adaptors, an LPG regulator and I think everything you need to hook it up except a gas hose. The main gas inlet adapter is metric I think, but you can use adapters. Steel is easily scratched by simply moving the posts. The ceramic spark goes through the bottom of the BURNER and I think the ceramic can easily break when the burners are removed for cleaning. The central burner flame is slightly curved with yellow flame tips on one side only. My biggest concern is that the two left burners won't light up until you hold them down for 20-30 seconds. The igniter lights up like a pilot for your water heater, as it only ignites when there is enough heat at the sensors to keep the gas flowing. Slow ignition only occurs with 2 burners, leading me to believe that the igniter or sensors are faulty. I like the price and the design so I will try to solve my problems via Revain or Empava. I will keep the rating up to date. To update. The detonator came in handy and I didn't return it, so the score has been updated. I think the detonator needs to be hacked?

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Security
