Centrist take: If you can’t get a decent sear on a gas stove you need to learn how to cook.

    My ideal stove would be an induction range with 1 gas burner, as there a few things gas is just better/easier for (eg. A Wok, non-magnetic cookware), but otherwise you’re right. I was a proponent of gas until I got an induction range.

      Someone will probably make one of those soon. I just bought myself an induction range, and I saw ranges with 3 gas burners and 1 induction hob. Hopefully not long until those numbers are swapped around.

        They already exist.

        Look here
        I’m saving up for one, but it’s a bit more tricky as I have the ventilator in the middle sucking down and those combos only exist in hybrid solutions and cost a metric fuckton.
        $9k from Gaggenau, BORA and Smeg.

        Just having one with gas for wok and my carbon steel pan also frees up more power for the remaining induction zones.
        Have four zones now but running three or more forces it to balance the power as not to trip the fuse.
