Nowadays most electric stoves are the induction type, right? Are they better than these traditional heating elements for any reason?

You can still get both induction, electric and gas stoves. I imagine induction would be more energy efficient since it heats the cookware, not the stovetop so you don’t lose as much heat to surrounding air. Glass tops are probably easier to clean too. I might not be the most qualified to ask since I haven’t ever had to buy a modern stove!

Gas stoves are the only ones that work when the power goes out
