Sir Benjamin Thomson is the father of modern gas stoves, chimneys and furnaces used in factories. He designed these in 1790. He is also the creator of modern fireplace.
The first modern commercial gas burner appeared at an exhibition in London in 1851. But it took another 30 years to reach the market. In 1880, the first gas stove came to the market in England. Because at that time, gas pipelines were installed across the country’s cities. At the same time, where there was electricity connection, electric stoves also started to be used. This stove became popular in Europe and the United States at the beginning of the twentieth century.
The microwave oven was invented and marketed in 1940.
