    Imagine your kid posting silly pictures of your face on the internet, probably without consent.

    I know it’s off topic but the stove design looks really weird to me. Why would you design a stove with all the knobs at the very back where they are hard to reach?

      It’s common in America, especially with electric stoves. All gas stoves I’ve seen use the front, though.

      To make them harder to reach so that you (or a child) don’t accidentally turn one of the burners on when you don’t intend to use it.

      I was at a house party that caught on fire because someone leaned against the knobs when they were lower in the front and caught something on fire which then caught cabinets on fire and quickly the whole kitchen. I think someone has a box of pizza on there.

        • I’ve never known a modern stove to have the controls anywhere else, and I’ve never really considered reaching over a pot or pan to turn the thing off. Most of the time, I’ll take the pot or pan off the stove first so it doesn’t burn. And if I am simply turning down the heat to go from boiling to simmering, I go around not over.

          I can totally see where you’re coming from tho. I grew up with this style; I’ve been tempered by the grease and steam of experience lol

            That’s really odd. I had never seen a stove with controls over and behind the hobs like this until today. If you just google “Stove” then 90% of the images are with the dials on the front, both home and commercial ranges. I don’t think it’s the norm to have controls positioned potentially hidden by superheated objects and seems like something that could even fall afoul of safety laws in the EU.

              That’s probably it. There’s probably some EU law somewhere that says that this obviously dangerous design is dangerous and you can’t have it, and then the US is like, we don’t care about our citizens anyway, go right ahead.

                Different views of dangerous—knobs in front are more easily turned on by children. So they both have their risks.

      Look at his age. His child is likely also a grown adult he wouldn’t be able to ground anyway(also likely the reason for the picture; they likely don’t even live one enough for a quick visit).
