With all the talk about how bad gas stoves are, I thought I would take a look at electric stoves. A lot of the newer stoves have many options. I personally have an electric stove, and I love it. I grew up with a gas stove, but I was always afraid of the pilot light. I have been married for 46 years and have always had an electric stove. They are much easier to keep clean.
Electric stoves
Cook tops or stove tops, are necessary to prepare meals on a daily basis. They provide you with a high-quality cooking surface for preparing meals without having an oven directly beneath it. The most common types of stove tops are gas and electric. Some models feature a modular design that can accommodate optional accessories such as grills, griddles, woks and more. This seemed to be the new trend having these options for a grill and such.

Induction Cook tops versus Electric:
This is another type of electric cook top that’s not as popular as a typical electric stove, but is growing in popularity.
Induction burners work by electromagnetic induction, which produces heat in the pan itself instead of on the cook top. These types of stoves can keep your kitchen cooler, safer and cleaner because there are no flames or direct heat.
Induction stove tops do require that your pots and pans must be magnetic-but that is no problem because an increasing Large percentage of most common cookware is magnetic.
