Right now ive got this ancient range from the 50s. the oven coil is broken and the landlord isnt fixing it (says wait until the summer lol), and it takes about a good 15 minutes before any pan placed on the coil is usably hot. also it gives off this weird charring/smoking smell even though it isnt dirty.
Im wondering if there are any other alternatives

Check your lease agreement. Your landlord might legally be required to replace the stove and multiple months isn't reasonable for an essential appliance.

So get a good electric "stove." I recommend just about anything by Cadco. Shop around because I found the following for under $200. But realistically nothing beats fire.

It's going to be the same purchase price (about $50) and much cheaper to run.
>>17551243
Gas is much more expensive. The downside of cheap induction cooktops is they don't have much control (either really low or really high), but they boil water much faster than gas, and those portable butane canisters are expensive as fuck to use long-term.

This, you gotta go with propane. Butane is way too expensive. You can get one of these tanks filled for like $15-20, and it'll run a little stove like that for at least 10-20 hours.

i would look into your options for induction or electric.
propane/white gas/etc burning inside the house is not the best idea.
just buy induction.
you can use stainless steel, carbon steel, and cast iron on it.
one of or even all 3 of the above are all you should be using anyway.

[Anonymous No.17551368]

>>17551282
if you don't treat them like shit you should get decades out of camp stoves. its just a terrible idea to fire up a portable gas burner inside a building.
a typical gas range is attached to an oven or a countertop, theres zero risk of the flame getting where it doesn't belong unless you're dumb enough to put something into it.

This is the answer.
Between this & an air fryer you can cook 99.99% of food products.

Try an induction hotplate instead.
It boils water faster than my full size electric range.

It's just an electric stove? Get him to give you a budget and do the legwork for him. Buy (if you can), install, arrange the old one to be taken away, etc.

Make sure this is all in some proper email.

We have a similar arrangement with our landlord. We're paying about 65% of market right now, but other than the purchase price of a dishwasher in the last 6 years we haven't asked him for fuck all so he hasn't been upping the rent.

Awesome, but the ones you can get at the asian grocery are unironically of better quality. Coleman stoves are built to have non-stick shitpans on them where the ones in the asian store are meant for heavy woks. The only real difference between all of them is the flame pattern, throughput, and how sturdy the stands are so make sure you take it out and wiggle them a fair bit

I've used these in professional catering settings. They work like a charm, but I didn't have to worry about fuel costs. Gas is much better to cook on than elements imo.

>>17551483
If you want to save money get one of these and a propane tank. Campers and hobos use them so you know they're safe or they'd be blowing up constantly.

[Anonymous No.17554358]

I'd recommend something like the iwatani 35fw
the cheap ones only go up to 2kw

the fuel isn't that expensive, i get around an hour out of €1.30 cans at 3.5kw (full power)
so it'll last much longer with a low flame

a can lasts around a week, depending on how much I cook
€5 a month on fuel doesn't seem unreasonable to me

I only use mine during power outages and to cook stuff like korean bbq on the table. Its useful but I would hate to use it every day.

I've found that electric is pretty easy to cook on, though my house has 240v for the oven/range. if i had to do it on 110 it would probably suck a lot more. I always wished I had gas, but I've just gotten used to electric, gets real hot real fast.

why the fuck would you want one of these over a gas one? are you scared of fire or something?
gas gives you more control over heat and is faster as well as cooling instantly induction hobs are categorically inferior
the only disadvantage is having to replace cylinders once in a blue moon

OP I've one of those for camping. I run it on little butane cans. It fucking sucks and takes 15 minutes to boil a couple of pints of water, but is sufficient for a few basic meals. They are extremely lightweight and flimsy which again helps for camping. I've also a thing like pic related which I use for outdoor wok cooking and large catering, like 20 gallons of sauce. I use large propane cylinders. I've ran it in the house too on blocks and a cement slab with the backdoor open. Kicks ass but propane is a lot more expensive than mains gas so it is only when I need it.
