A propane stove is a cooking appliance that uses propane gas as its fuel source. It typically features burners on the top for cooking and may include an oven for baking. Propane stoves are popular for their efficiency and ability to provide instant heat, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor cooking. These stoves are commonly used in homes, camping, and recreational vehicles due to their portability and ease of use. They require a propane tank for fuel, which can be easily replaced or refilled. Safety features, such as automatic shut-off valves, are often included to prevent accidents.
