Default Force 5 stove report

Joe wrote:
Well we had the force 5 in the galley for about 6-8 mo. now.

What a fuel saver, the gas will last about 3 times as long as with
other stoves like Attwoods ect..
Has no pilot light to waste fuel.

Easy to clean, solid HD stainless steel.

Nothing but positive things to say about the stove.


Sounds very good. Is it a 3-burner or 4? How big is the oven
and how well does the thermostat on it work?

Most people don't use their oven but we like bisquits (easy
to make) and pies (a bit more of a challenge) and while I
have learned to make beer bread in a pressure cooker, I have
not yet figured out how to make sweet potato pie in a
pressure cooker.
