[quote=Anonymous]A decade ago, I would have gotten a gas cooktop with an electric oven. I like the heat control gas gives. Today, I would buy an induction cooktop with an electric oven. Induction gives the same fine-grained and instant heat control of gas, but induction does not need the knob fiddling to get it started. Induction also is a little better for kids, because the cooktop surface does not get super hot (but the pans do get as hot as one makes them). The one downside of induction is that it does not work with aluminum pots and pans, because they are not magnetic. Only pans made of steel or iron will work with induction. We already have steel cookware, so not an issue for us.[/quote]
