....so to speak
Both my wife and I enjoy cooking, and once we made the switch to gas many years ago, there was no looking back. You can control the heat, (i.e., flame), essentially real-time, while there is a delay with an electric burner. And according to a guy at Powers Generator who just sized up our new digs for a generator, the electric oven/stove is one of the biggest electricity draws in the whole house.
