omg, is this for real? weird how recent conspiracy rumbling about gvmnt taking away gas stoves may have been covering for a real conspiracy. First I've read about benzene in stove fumes. Like cooking w/gas

Electric glass tops can be hard to clean at times. I'd still prefer it over gas in general.

Induction glass tops are sooooooo easy to clean. Nothing gets burned on because the heat is in the pan, not in or under the glass top.

Glass tops definitely easier to clean than non-sealed burners, but I always end up with charred rings over the burners that have been polished into the glass and will never come out.

With sealed gas burners I just pour some boiling water on the cooktop, wait for it to cool, mop it up with a towel, and scrub the nasty stuff off with a scrubber.

Inductions are crazy easy to clean, though.
