Love Those Simmer Buttons !
I love those big burners with the simmer buttons. The burners are a nice size, and really spread the flame out. Those simmer buttons are perfect for truly simmering, and not low boiling. My parents had a 1960 Gaffers & Sattler coppertone cooktop that had these. You could really simmer well with these, and keep stuff hot without continuing to cook the item. You can't do that with the gas stoves of today.
That's why now days, I stick with a GE electric stovetop. Very controlable, and it simmers well.
