[blparent] What kind of stove do yuou have?

[Robert Jaquiss]

Hello:

     I bought a Bosch stove from Sears. It is a flat top, but has knobs so 
it can be easily set. I tend to put the pot on the burner, then turn on the 
stove and if necessary move the pot so it is in the best position. I also 
have a Bosch dishwasher that has nice buttons for setting it. My only 
complaint was that if you want an accessible appliance, you tend to either 
get the really low end or the top of the line.

Happy New Year,

Robert Jaquiss
