    BUT [gas] heats 10 times faster

    Everything I have seen has said that induction is the fastest, followed by traditional electric, and then gas is the slowest.

    I’m also dubious about this “instant control of heat”. Why wouldn’t turning an induction stove off be the same thing? They both stop heating the pan, and then the only heat left is what’s in the pan. The big difference being that the gas option has heated up the room as well, because it shoots heat all over the place, while the induction stove only heats the pan directly. Electric I get, it’s going to hold some heat in the coil, but I don’t see how induction differs from gas in this regard.
