For me, it would probably have to be my Bialetti moka pot and Dualit toaster. I make a pot of coffee and toast almost every morning. I also hope to replace my old pans with a cast iron one soon, and I look forward to using that a lot.

Coil-top stoves are definitely better than gas IMO.

Now, I'm hooked on induction.

I got a good single-burner induction hob to test it out (was like $120, bought online) and immediately fell in love with it. I only revert back to my current gas stove if I absolutely have to (some of my cheaper pans are sadly just aluminum base and dont work on induction) or if I need multiple things going at once.

I'm really getting a lot of mileage out of my cast iron on the induction hob too, I think this is the most I've used it in years and thus the pans are getting quite well seasoned.

I'm hooked on induction all the way. It's such a pleasant cooking experience. Precise heat control all the way from just a little warm to basically melting the pan. Boil water in a couple minutes. No indoor air pollution like with gas.
