I really don't get this love of gas stoves. You'd think electric stoves killed their parents.
It's because so many electric stoves fucking suck. A cheap gas stove is infinitely better to cook on than a cheap coil electric stove.
While people will talk about electric stoves and reference newer glass top ranges, and induction cooktop that heat the pan directly, that's not what 90% of people have. They have the shitty coil burners from the cheap piece of shit model the apartment complex installed.
The price difference to get to a good electric means many apartment complexes and landlords won't buy them, or it's just cost prohibitive for current homeowners with the current economy when the current stove unexpectedly breaks.
I've also found gas is better for frying or using a wok

Yes but it's not 1920. You can get an single range induction stove from Ikea for 50€.
Here's a gas stove for 300€: https://geizhals.de/amica-shgg-11559-w-gasherd-a1124476.html?hloc=at&hloc=de

Honestly disagree. When I think of a stove I think of my landlord special electric and it’s fine. I really don’t get why people hate them. And yes I’ve used gas. And glass. Never induction though.
Okay, other than the coil taking longer to heat up and a bit of a struggle to clean if you don’t use the right stuff to prevent it becoming a nightmare. What’s the issue with them?
Of course something cheaper isn’t going to be as good, so what it takes a few extra minutes to warm up.
If that's the case, a cheapo portable induction cooktop is good enough actually.
See this right here. It's easy. It really is. So very easy. Can't express how easy it is.
There's a whole lot of people for whom "electric stove" means "giant metal coil that heats up in an uncontrollable way and contacts my cookware unevenly."
When my gas stove fails, I will almost certainly replace it with an electric induction stove. I have never used one, but my understanding is that they are just as easy to cook with as a gas stove.
However, old style electric stoves are still about half the price of induction stoves, and gas stoves are even cheaper. I can't fault someone for having to replace their range with something they can just barely afford instead of with something they can't afford at all.
Having used all three types a fair bit, holy shit yes a good induction hob is leagues above the old electric coil ones
you never used one, yet you have opinions about how it's gonna be just as good as a gas one. Spoiler alert: it won't. Oh, and ofc, buy a cheap induction stove for added suffering.
There it is. Lol very controllable. The only way it doesn't contact properly is if you have warped pots. You also missed one of the electric stoves, is that the one that killed your parents?
I wouldn’t say I love my gas stove (and oven), but I do find it way easier to cook on than electric. I’ve only recently become aware of the health dangers. Not really money in my budget currently to switch.
Because a wok attached to a jet engine makes the best fried rice.
To be fair some folks have a false perception that the gas stove is better for some tasks and buying a whole new appliance sucks especially when it's potentially the government forcing you to make the switch.
Good for cooking as they can generate a lot of heat quickly
Gas stoves tend to be slower than induction.
On no it takes 5 seconds for electric. The horror.
I don't get it either. I hate them as well and I just see them as one more thing for landowners to fuck you over with on. I wanted to get into baking things at one point but because I baked a pizza for 20 minutes in my gas stove, that was like $15 on my utility bill on top of rent. Fuck that.
Wtf an oven, gas or electric, typically costs 10s of cents per hour to run.
