It’s the age-old debate: which is better, a gas or electric stove? I have both a gas stove 4 burner, and my Miele induction stove at home, and I switch between the two depending on what I am cooking. However, if you live in a small apartment, chances are there’s only room for one stove.
Have you been considering making the move from induction to gas, or perhaps need to upgrade your existing gas stove 3 burner? Then I’m sure your next question will be: What is the best gas stove for home use? This depends on several factors, but ultimately (especially since you’re working with gas), you want to go with a reputable and reliable brand.
Factors to consider when buying the best gas stove are brand, size, the number of burners, price, and power. For example, do you want a built-in 2 burner gas stove Singapore, or maybe you’re after a larger gas stove burner with 5 plates? There are other, more personalised features to think about, such as design, colour and style. You might also want to buy a gas stove burner to match your built-in oven.
Do top chefs prefer gas or induction? Gas is typically favoured in industrial kitchen settings, as it heats things faster, and you can create nifty cooking techniques, like charring red peppers directly over the flame.
Whilst we’re not all pro chefs, if you’re desperate to have the best gas stove Singapore, compare these 10 options based on consumer and online reviews.
P.S. A gas stove burner can also save you on electricity. But remember, you need to pay for gas refills every so often.
Miele KM 3054-1, $6,600
Best professional versatile 5 burner gas stove
The Miele brand is for those who take their cooking and cheffing it up seriously. I can’t imagine life without my Miele stove. Which probably means you have a larger-than-average kitchen.
I’ve often noticed that even if an apartment is small in size, when homeowners love making food and entertaining, there will always be room made for a well-spaced-out kitchen!
So, for this one, I say it’s go big or go home; in this case, get the largest Miele gas stove burner, which works with both gas AND has electronic functions. This is one of my favourite parts about this particular stove. But wait, there’s more…Not only do you have the standard burners, but one of them doubles as a dual wok!
(If you do want a smaller model from Miele, check out their 3-burner option, the KM 3014 G.)
It includes a single-handed operation via rotary dials (so no pressing down is required) and QuickStart, as well as a ‘Gas Stop & Restart function,’ meaning it automatically flicks the gas back on if it goes out! The pot rests are also dishwasher-safe.
Miele KM 3054-1 is priced at $6,600 from Miele.
Fujioh Fh-Gs7020 Svgl 2 Burner Double Inner Flame Glass Gas Hob, $638
Best quality 2 burner gas stove
The thing that sets the Fujioh 2 burner gas stove Singapore apart from other gas stove 2 burners is its advanced double inner flame, leading to even heat distribution. Ultimately, this speeds up cooking time. But more importantly, your food comes out better. For example, if you’re cooking a chicken breast or a piece of steak, the double inner flame ensures the entire pan is hot all around, so no piece of your meat cooks faster than the rest. The result is an evenly-cooked juicy steak or moist chicken breast, not one that is overly dry!
You can also simply use the inner flame for smaller pots and pans, or activate the double inner flame. I love the shape of the burner rests, which remind me of the shape of a wok. When the flame is ignited, it moves around in a cyclonic motion.
The Fujioh glass gas hob boasts safety features such as a Flame Failure Safety Device and a Heat Deflector.
It is designed with push and turn knobs, brass burner caps, a stainless steel surface, aluminium alloy and matte enamelled pan support. Most of my cookware is enamel (I’m a massive Le Creuset snob), and so I especially appreciate this feature!
Fujioh Fh-Gs7020 Svgl 2 Burner Double Inner Flame Glass Gas Hob is priced at $638 from Lazada.
Bosch Series 4 Gas hob 78 cm Tempered glass, Black, $770
Best mid-level built-in 3 burner gas stove
Bosch’s built-in 3 burner gas stove Singapore is well-priced for its brand name, and is an excellent choice for consumers who have budgeted for a middle-range gas stove.
Its black tempered glass surface is a big plus for me, looking sleek and stylish on any kitchen counter. Not only that, but I often find that glass surfaces are easier to clean compared to stainless steel ones.
Manufactured with town gas 10 mbar gas-type presets (this type of gas fuel is commonly used in Singapore), the three gas burners can be used as a standard or wok burner, with power heating elements up to 5000 W (for the left and right burners) and 2000 W for the rear centre burner.
The sword-shaped knobs are designed for ergonomic control and feel really comfortable in your hands. Ever found that when pushing and twisting the knobs to spark ignition, and after multiple tries and still no flame, it can make indents in your palms? You don’t have to worry about that with these control knobs.
Bosch Series 4 Gas hob 78 cm Tempered glass, Black is priced at $770 from Shopee.
Rinnai Rb-3si (Rb3si) 3 Burner Stainless Steel Inner Flame Gas Hob, $748
Best stainless steel 3 burner gas stove
You get the more traditional-designed gas stove 3 burner, where the burners are allocated as a spread out selection, but then some brands opt for burner designs that are a little different. The Rinnai Rb-3si is one example, where the main burner is to the left, and the two opposite burners are perpendicular.
Some of the cool functions and features of the gas stove include wind protection, an air intake guard and high heat efficiency. There is also cast iron support, so you know your pots and pans aren’t getting damaged beneath.
Many consumers love the fact that it boasts a simmer flame option (if you only want to gently heat liquid or a sauce). Feel totally in control of things, knowing your flame is set to an actual simmer, and you’re not just guestimating.
There are both inner and normal flame options, and this Rinnai gas stove is manufactured with the brand’s original combustion technology.
Finishings-wise, it has a stainless steel top.
Rinnai Rb-3si (Rb3si) 3 Burner Stainless Steel Inner Flame Gas Hob is priced at $748 from Lazada.
Smeg PC32GNO 30cm Gas Hob with 2 Burners, $1,380
Most stylish gas stove 2 burner
Whilst Smeg’s classic 4 burner gas stove is amazing, the Smeg 2 burner is ideal for homes in Singapore, where the majority of Singaporeans live in apartments and HDBs (around 77%). As we all know, space can sometimes be an issue, especially in the kitchen area. So the 2-burner option is ideal!
I’m a die-hard Smeg-lover, and so I think it is the best 2 burner gas stove Singapore if you appreciate quality, endurance, as well as appearances! Collaborating with Italian architect Guido Canali, for this range, it all makes sense! The gas stove 2 burner also looks fabulous with other Smeg kitchen appliances, like Smeg’s Galileo Multi-Cooking Oven.
Decked out in all black with rust-resistant brass finishes (which lend to the brand’s famous retro and vintage-inspired design), the gas burner is vertically-shaped and is constructed from fancy SCHOTT CERAN® — adding to the aesthetics. This specific ceramic is famed for withstanding high temperatures without doing damage.
The larger burner gives up to 3000 W and the smaller one up to 1800 W of power. It also has cast-iron pan stands.

Most affordable 3 burner gas stove
The Aerogaz 3 burner hob with a tempered glass surface is super popular! Established in Singapore circa 2003, and with manufacturing plants in Malaysia and China, this validates Aerogaz’s affordable price point, as no major importing is required, and it’s a local brand.

All in all, it’s great value for money.

Bertazzoni P905LHERAG/P905LHERAX 90cm 5-burner Gas Hob with Lateral Dual Wok, $1,538
Most personalised gas stove
I swear I must have been an Italian in a past life, because when it comes to any type of Italian brand, I go weak at the knees. There’s just something about Italian craftsmanship as well as style that wins over my design-appreciating heart.
Take Bertazzoni, for example. Did you know that for their stoves, you can tailor-select even the finest of details to your preference, like what colour knobs you prefer. In this instance, there’s the option between gold and metal knob controls, as well as the burner type! I’ve got a fine eye for detail, so I value these sorts of options.
Next, if ever I am given the option, I prefer a lighter colour palette in my kitchen space. I spend a lot of time in this room, and so I like a feeling of lightness and airiness. This gas stove is done in a stylish ivory enamelled steel; the burners are brass, and the solid metal worktop controls are from Bertazzoni’s Heritage Series.
Personally, I prefer a gas stove with a segregated burner grate, just like this one has. It makes me feel safer for some reason. Enjoy a two-year warranty with this best gas stove.
Other reasons to go for the best gas stove Singapore? There are five cooking/gas zones. My kitchen isn’t overly massive, and still, I have a large 5 burner gas stove. Cooking a lot, I always have multiple pots, pans, casseroles, etc., on the go!
