[Electronics-talk] tactile stove

[Darla Rogers]

Dear Ashley,

	I put Hi Marks on the burner borders--not a contiguous line--but a dot at each edge--4 dots--as I find I have problems lining up pans on the flat top thing, and I'll never have one again, if I can help it; I  want a gas range anyway, and there is gas already in the house, so running a line to a gas stove won't be an issue.

Pam,
That is nice to know. Did you buy yours in a store? When I've looked in stores such as  Sears, they have the flat stoves.
Not that I asked, I just saw what was on display. Some did have an outline of the burner which I could see. but most did not have any color difference; flat all around.

I'll use the GE one we have the best I can, but when we can replace it or I move, I'd like to have a more accessible one.
Ashley

Yes, they are still made by several companies.  We bought one last summer.

Hi all,

I cannot use these new flat stoves as easily. I would rather have something to feel to center the pots.
Does anyone make electric stoves with those coils you can feel?

I grew up with this and it was much easier to use. I use my little vision to help now. the stove has a light for each burner and it stays on even if you cut the stove off; this light indicates the burner is still hot. I’m glad I can see that so I don’t accidently touch that area.
If no one makes stoves with coiled burners, do they at least make ones with enough tactile difference between the burner and other surface to feel the difference? I use my hand to feel the heat in order to place the pots on the burners, but its not as exact as the old way.

Thanks.
Ashley
