When buying a burner gas cooktop, you should look for safety features such as flame failure devices, automatic shut-off, and child locks. Flame failure devices automatically shut off the gas supply if the flame goes out, preventing gas leaks and potential fires. Automatic shut-off features turn off the gas supply after a certain amount of time, preventing accidental gas leaks. Child locks prevent children from accidentally turning on the burners or adjusting the gas flow. Additionally, make sure the cooktop is installed by a licensed professional and that the gas supply is properly ventilated.
