Gas Hobs
Gas hobs have been a favorite for a long time with chefs and amateur cooks alike because of their instant oven hob visible heat source, as well as easy control. They also tend to distribute heat more evenly, making frying easier. However, their effectiveness isn't as great than other types of hobs and they are slower to warm up. Additionally, they require professional installation and need proper kitchen ventilation to remove smoke from combustion.

Electric hobs use an induction plate to cookware directly, so they're usually much quicker and more efficient than traditional gas hobs. They don't create the same amount of harmful emissions and are simple to clean. However they don't have that similar flame-cooked appeal and may be incompatible with homes that have children or those with medical equipment such as pacemakers.
