When we had our house built, the builder asked us whether we wanted a gas stove or an electric stove. We went with gas, but never really liked the stove. After a lot of debate, we decided to get an induction stove. This is a stove with a glass top that uses magnetics to warm pots with certain percentage of iron.
Somewhat miraculously, the plumber to turn off the gas to the stove showed up the same morning the stove was delivered, so we were only without a stove for two hours.
Habitat for Humanity will be picking up our old stove.
