Electric stoves shouldn't even exist.

@bijouxbroussard They sucking every way. They are just terrible to cook on. Can't easily adjust the heat, no response on the dials, they heat pans in weird ways, the danger of them staying hot after turning off, expensive. Take forever to heat up.

Just terrible compared to any other type of range.

@MethDozer I could see that. But I guess it’s a matter of what you’re used to. I practised cooking on an electric stove when I was kid. There was still a way to turn the heat down, and I simply took pans off the stove so things wouldn’t continue cooking while the stove cooled down. The first time I used a gas oven was in my husband’s flat, and the pilot went out. I watched him relight it—I wouldn’t have known what to do and probably accidentally gassed myself. I’ve been successfully using a gas stove for many years since then, but there [b]was[/b] a learning curve. 😅

@bijouxbroussard They don't even have pilots on the new ones. It's all peizo. I always thought the pilot light was a dumb idea to be honest. Matchlight burners are just as easy and never have to worry about the pilot.
