I have spent 2 months trying to, if not love, tolerate the halogen hob.

30 seconds on my induction hob later: THE HALOGEN HAS TO GO!

Every time I come back to Vancouver it’s like going back to the past. I have a gas stove here, my parents are already using induction. Things take sooooo long to heat up with gas. When I get there, during the first days I keep boiling things over, lol. And realizing how easy it is to clean afterward. And of course, CO2, toxic fumes, explosions, etc.

@Miguel Arroz Halogen is about the same speed as gas. maybe very slightly slower.

And it has the advantage of not being utterly filthy, which it shares with induction.

But it's not induction
