Turns out gas stoves emit benzene in non-trivial amounts... Damnit.

I hate glasstops stoves and nothing beats cooking with gas.

There's a reason we have hoods.

Disagree. Induction is as good or better than gas in the ways that matter: great control and responsiveness, high power, super easy to clean, etc. And I'm also not burning hydrocarbons in my home.

A while back I weighed the options and I couldn't be happier having gone with induction.

I disliked it every time I tried it, but maybe the quality was just poor. The three qualities you point out are my complaints about them. Not responsive, low power, hard to clean.

I don't know how to reconcile my experience with what people are claiming...

Are you thinking of glass top stoves? Induction stoves are the ones where the surface stays cold.

Glass tops are as you describe.
