You might disagree but walk into home depot, this style is plenty popular. I would say more popular when I was renting.

I'd rather have them at eye level easier to see from across the room and have them away from kids.

It's amazing how many people project their wants and needs based on their limited experience.

It's propably a local thing. The same stove design is not popular in every country. At some places every stove might look like this and at others people might have never seen such a thing.

You should probably mention that to the guy projecting.

Is home depot a generic name or do you mean the chain called Home Depot?

Brand. In most of the states we'd call it a hardware and lumber store as a generic.
