A year or two after moving to the “homestead,” we replaced the small, broken propane range in the cabin with a “new” one, purchased from neighbors. They’d recently purchased it, but found that it didn’t meet their needs. It lacked piezoelectric igniters integrated into the gas knobs. I had used this feature before, and hoped to find a stove with them ourselves, but the savings proved too good to pass up. We decided to ignite our pilots individually each time we use the stove.
