I'm the trouble starter, punkin' instigator.

Having recently spent a little time investigating new cookers, I am curious to know your opinion on the ignition buttons on gas hobs. Your answer is unlikely to affect my cooker-purchasing actions, but having discovered in the pub last night what an unexpectedly polarising question this is, I'm now curious...

Well, that confirms the prejudices I had, but thought might be outdated, so I am happy to read it ;)

I had been assuming those buttonless-button things would be great, because easy to clean, but saying that triggered a huge rant from a friend. Mostly along the lines of jabbing repeatedly at the button wouldn't turn it on, but the lightest brush of a sleeve when you weren't intending it will turn it on every time.

It was definitely easy to clean. But I concur with your friend's view.
