buying a gas hob from Italy - "gas safe" problems?

Really? So confusing, I spoke to a distributor in Italy who said they ship to UK all the time. Don't really know who to believe!
Bottled gas is usually Propane, UK natural gas is mainly Methane. They
have differing energy content and require different burners (or burner
nozzles) to be fitted. Most manufacturers can supply bits for either
gas supply as long as you specify it when ordering. Simply saying "UK
use" is inadequate as rural locations in the UK with no natural gas
supply often use Propane.
