I’m curious what was difficult about cleaning your gas stove? The range I’m getting rid of had a self-cleaning oven, just like many electric ones, and the stovetop has sealed burners where all the exposed burner parts could be picked up and thrown in the dishwasher. It’s quick and easy to clean, but I don’t know how typical that is
For me, its the 3 large cast iron grates that sit above the burners.
Gotta remove them to do even the most quick/basic wipe down & they’re awkward/heavy. They dont fit in the dishwasher & only fit in the sink at an angle, which leads to scratching up the sink.
I went from electric to gas a couple years ago moving to a new apartment.
The most jarring part of the transition was the fumes. You can really smell the pollution.
The dial means nothing… the flame gets a bit bigger/smaller, but there really isnt the same level of granular control as an electric.
I find myself constantly worrying about bumping the handles.
Bitch to clean…
Overall, not impressed & cant wait to go back to electric.
Induction is the best of both. No pollution, fast, and a glass surface to wipe clean.

It’s a pain compared to a flat glass surface that you just need to wipe.
