(60,741 posts)I have had gas stoves since I got my first appartment in 1972. I also hated using the electric stove tops available to us in many timeshares. However, last summer, the unit we were in in Lanzarote was recently unpdated and had an induction hub. After figuring out how to use it, it was wonderful. We did not do much cooking, but loved how easy it was to make perfect omlettes and fried eggs. It also boiled water incredibly fast and was easy to clean.
We were impressed enough that when our current 15 year old stove dies, we want to get a good induction one even though we have learned we would need to upgrade the electric line going to the stove. We need to make sure the condo we live in will approve it. Environmental concerns are now not balanced with concern of a degraded cooking experience.
