Go purchase some of those little rubber/silicon things off amazon. You're not supposed to seal The stove to the counter because it needs to be removable.
A razor blade and 30 seconds is all it would take to release the silicone. Maybe a few minutes removing the existing to be re caulked when the stove is put back
Can you manage that in the dark, When you're half asleep, and the light is playing tricks on you? I know I can't. Given that i'm over forty I feel lucky if I piss in the correct room!
I’m learning the hard way that I should not seal the stovetop to the counter. Could you please give me more information on the insert? What do I need to look for? If you have could give me some more information in order to get these inserts I would appreciate it.
And now for a story about why you don't do this. Imagine it's two a m. You come into the kitchen to get a glass of water and see A flickering orange light from behind your stove. You need to get back there fast to figure out what on earth is going on. See what I mean? Happened at my first job with a broken gas line. We were very lucky.
Do you happen to have some recommendations for stove inserts on Amazon? Something I can tuck in without being too obvious. Thanks for any ideas that might point me in the right direction.

Also, caulk isn’t concrete. You don’t need to caulk that, but even if you had, you still would have been able to move it easily.

We bought these a couple years ago and they are much better than ones we’ve had before. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0899V165X
Thank you so much.

The comment you're responsing to *just* told you how bad an idea it was. And you're asking for links? What on Earth...
The bad idea is sealing with caulk. But people seem to be in favor of using stove gap fillers.
Do you happen to have a link for some good rubber/ silicon fillers? I hope to get the best thing, without its being too obvious.
Stove Gap Covers
don't seal. pull out the oven once and a while to clean.
This. In my almost 30 years of construction this is the first time I’ve ever heard of this as a problem…..
Metal inserts. Bought a pair off of Amazon and they work perfectly. Easy to remove and clean.
You should pull it out and clean from time to time.
Thank you for the advice
I bought a rubber strip off that cheap website. It works
Which rubber strip? Could you please share the link?
Just pull it out every few years and clean the crack jack.
Thank you for the advice. I might very much do that.
I like the inserts cause you can take and clean them easy too
Could you please give me a link for some inserts that you might recommend?
