Gorenje GI 52320

The popular model from a major player in the household appliances market — the Slovenian company Gorenje — owes its success to a high level of functionality. It found the use of exactly those functions that you want to see in any modern gas stove.

Auto ignition

For households who are dealing with auto- ignition of burners and ovens for the first time, this system may seem inconvenient. But it’s enough to get used to it — and you won’t want to return to ignition of the flame by using a separate electric ignition button or a lighter at all. In addition, safety is at stake — the need to hold down the regulator of the corresponding burner for several seconds after it is ignited is justified by the use of the “gas control” function, which prevents gas from leaking if the flame is accidentally extinguished.

Electronic panel

The set of classic rotary controls on board the stove is complemented by an electronic panel with a small digital display for displaying the current time and the ability to set a timer for the end of cooking. However the capabilities of the timer include only the sound notification after a predetermined time has elapsed — it cannot independently shut off the gas supply.

Oven

The oven of the model has a very worthy equipment, which includes support for the preparation of grilled dishes and cleaning the inner surface from steam contamination. But far from everything is smooth in it — complaints from users are made to the temperature adjustment scale inside the oven, applied not in the usual degrees Celsius, but in numbers from 1 to 9. This method of informing requires periodically referring to the instructions in order to compare which particular temperature corresponds to the selected mode. Questions are also raised by a glass insert in the storage compartment for dishes, which can be accidentally broken.

Reliable stability

Due to the cast-iron grates on the working surface of the stove, not only standard kitchen utensils, but also heavy pans or goose casseroles become reliable. So, almost no limitations of the model are terrible, thanks to which you can safely close your eyes to minor flaws in its design — they do not affect the ease of handling, and the overall functionality of the stove deserves only flattering words.
