As you noticed, our list of top 10 gas stoves includes manual as well as automatic ignition stoves. Both can be great options based on your priorities. An auto ignition gas stove is much more convenient to use, and you are less likely to burn your hand while lighting the stove accidentally. However, as pointed out previously, gas stoves with auto ignition are costlier to buy and maintain. You may have to get the components of the ignition system repaired or replaced multiple times in the long run.
