My stove blew up while my girlfriend was cooking. Although she didn't suffer any burns, she was still faced with sparks flying all over her. She has no pictures of the actual fire from the stove because she panicked and put it out right away.

If you can prove damages and that it was their fault - you may have a claim.

This does not sound like a case with any real value to pursue. Without physical injury there is little chance of recovering sufficient damages to make this a worthwhile case. If there were some prior notice to landlord of defects in the stove or repairs done to stove negligently, then perhaps the landlord will not be looking to you for reimbursement for the damages to the stove. Don't try to make a mountain out of a molehill.
