    Induction stove. Its responsiveness and power are incomparable to electric or gas. I’m never going back.

    Alternatively, my Steam Deck. I use it practically every day. A gaming PC that I can take anywhere has always been my dream, and it absolutely delivers.

        They make metal plates you can use over an instruction stove to use whatever cookware you have

          The only one I tried was so slow and pathetic that it’s completely put me off the idea. Was it just a bad example?

              Umm stoves/ranges are wired for 50amp 240v. Being on an American grid that also supports 120v is irrelevant to this.

              This was a presumably quite expensive one (the house it was in was outrageous) in the UK. Did our friend group’s Christmas dinner at one of their parents places in the country. Trying to cook dinner for 16 was a huge pain using that thing.

        Gas stoves also release carcinogens and need to be very well vented. They re superior other than that, IMO. I just run my vent hood when my stovetop is in use.

            Recent studies have found that this information is entirely false and propaganda by the gas companies. It releases huge amounts of quite toxic stuff every second it is lit. More closely aligned with everyone in the house breathing second hand smoke from cigarettes continuously while it is being used. It has been all over the news these past few months.
