I don't like gas ranges - difficult to clean and gas burning leaves traces of greasy residue all over the kitchen, hood notwithstanding. (It might be due to the fact that up to ten or so years ago we in Zagreb used what we called 'city gas' - the stuff is byproduct of turning coal into coke and contains, besides methane, all kinds of rubish. We are now on natural gas.) I prefer electric affairs with ceramic surface, but have only tried those with radiative heating, never inductive ones like this one.
