Realy? Ours is fine when it boils over and things. Pans are normal price. Ok you don't get the $5 specials but not any more than semi decent normal pans. I think the most expensive one we have was $80 and cheapest was $20
Anyway just a thought.
I'd say keep electric but go induction.
I prefer it to gas and it's realy easy to clean.
For me gas is old tech . It's all about electric and solar now.
