Ramtons is one of the trusted brands in Kenya as far as home appliances are concerned. For a price of under KSh 20,000, the Ramtons EB/302-5693 all gas cooker is worth every penny you will spend on it. Some of the features in this model are only common in their more expensive models.

Cooker Review
The Ramtons EB/302-5693 is one of the few cookers in the market from Ramtons that uses gas in the top hobs (burners), oven and grill. It is worth every penny that it is sold for. One of the best features I like about this cooker is its adjustable legs which allows you to adjust the height of the cooker.
This cooker is gas powered but like all other cookers with auto ignition feature, it will require a connection to electricity for auto ignition and oven lamp features to work. The power consumption is minimal though.
The cooker has a width of 55 cm and a depth of 55 cm which is big enough for your day to day cooking needs and small enough to fit in a majority of Kitchens in Kenya.
[wpsm_column size=”one-half”][wpsm_pros title=”PROS:”]- Warming Compartment
- Auto Ignition
- Adjustable legs
- One year warranty
- It has an oven timer
- Temperature control
- Only one choice of colour
Conclusion
For a price of under KSh 20,000 you will get value for every penny you spend on it. It is hard to ask for more from Ramtons but don’t expect it to perform like other high end cookers available in the market.
The one year warranty ensures that you can always get a replacement if it’s faulty.
If you don’t like the look of the cooker, you can have a look at these other two models by Ramtons which have the same features and price as the above cooker.
- Ramtons EB-303
- Ramtons EB-300

Cooker Review
The Mika MST55PIAGSL/SD Standing Gas Cooker is a perfect gas cooker for those looking for something under 20K.
It has two separate gas burner elements for the upper and lower compartment of the oven that can be controlled by two separate knobs. The two elements can work at the same time allowing perfect baking.
The cooker is also easy to clean because of the materiel it’s made from. You can also remove the panels on the cooker for a thorough cleaning.
Features like auto ignition and oven lamp light requires that the cooker be connected to a source of power for them to work but power consumption by the features are below what a radio would consume.
[wpsm_column size=”one-half”][wpsm_pros title=”PROS:”]- Auto Ignition
- Easy to clean
- Oven tray provided
- One year warranty

Conclusion
Honestly one of the best cookers in its class. The small size makes it even a better option for those with little space left in their kitchens.

Cooker Review
The Bruhm BGC-5040NW standing gas cooker is just the perfect cooker if you are looking for a budget cooker that occupies minimal space in your kitchen. All the burners, the oven and grill are powered by gas meaning you don’t have to worry about using too much electricity.
The oven has two separate compartments each with a burner of its own and two knob to control each burner.
For the auto ignition and oven lamp to work, you will need to connect the cooker to a source of power but the consumption is minimal. It should consume electricity just like an average house bulb does.
[wpsm_column size=”one-half”][wpsm_pros title=”PROS:”]- Auto Ignition

Conclusion
If you are the kind that trusts products from big brands only, it’s hard to criticize this cooker for the price it goes for. However, you can find other cookers that go for around the same amount of money and which offer better features.
You can also purchase the more expensive model of this cooker, Bruhm BGC-5040NX gas cooker, which has a price difference of about 2,000 but all the features are the same apart from being metallic grey in color.
Other Bruhm models that are similar to this cooker but with larger size (60 cm with by 60 cm length) are;
- BGC-6640NW all Gas cooker
- BGC-6640NX all gas cooker

Cooker Review
The Von Hotpoint C5555S3V/VAC5U340RX cooker I one of the best all gas cookers that Hotpoint has in the Kenyan market. It’s also relatively cheap considering all the features that the cooker comes equipped with.
The cooker is one of the few that has adjustable legs. The only notable feature that’s missing from the cooker is an oven timer.
[wpsm_column size=”one-half”][wpsm_pros title=”PROS:”]- Auto Ignition

This model is a great choice for those with limited kitchen space as it only measures 50 cm by 50 cm. For a price of about 21K, I don’t think there’s another cooker of its size and that can match the features this cooker has.
It’s also made from stainless steel which will easily make it the centre of attraction in your kitchen.

Conclusion
This is perfect cooker for a big family or people who love cooking a lot. Would recommend it to people who bake as a side hustle because of its large oven.
What do we consider as an all gas cooker?
The intention when preparing for this post was to only include cookers that are all powered by gas. Both in the oven and the hobs. Halfway through, we realized that we had left out a lot of good options because they had at least one electric hotplate.
We decided to include all cookers that met the following conditions;
- The oven and Grill must be gas powered
- Have at least 3 gas hobs (Burners)
- Freestanding with a width of not less than 50cm and not more than 100cm
