Gas stoves fill the air in your home with particulate matter (pm), which has been found to increase cancer risk in the long term.

So next time you buy a stove, consider choosing an induction stove.

Btw, gas stoves being better or faster than induction is a myth. They have certain specific advantages, but they are actually slower.

    Does this apply if you use extraction?

    I’ve had induction for many years, but I really want a combo with both. Making wok on induction is crap as the sides don’t get hot at all. I also have a hot spot in the center of all frying pans which is annoying when frying bigger things or several things at once.

    My dream is a Gaggenau or Bora top with one side induction and one side gas. I already have the mid extractor with outside piping, so no recirculation.
    I just cannot justify the $10k price tag and nobody else makes it with a fan in the middle.

      They do make professional grade induction burners for woks that are curved, they are beautiful but prohibitively expensive

        Yeah I’ve seen those, but not on a hob with downward draft in the middle.

        Maybe someone will make them in the future or I win the lottery and can pay Bora/Gaggenau prices….
