Oven - gas or electric?

[saslia]

I am getting a new oven and most seem to be gas hotplate but electric oven.

Are electric ovens better? I have only ever cooked with gas.

Which do you prefer?

TIA

I just bought a new set (Westinghouse) and I got electric oven and gas cooktop. I've always had gas oven in houses I've owned, but electric in some rentals. I actually prefer electric because it seems to cook more evenly. Mine takes less than 3 mins to heat up to the right temperature - check this because some take longer to preheat.

Good luck with your choice!

We brought a new stove and got a free standing electric one. I prefer the electric oven to the gas as the heat is more even and like Div said it does heat up quicker, but I can't comment on new gas ovens as I have only ever used older ones.

yes electric oven is best for baking but gas is best for stove top cooking.

we have elec oven, gas cooktop - both Bosch - when we first moved in here we had a very old Bosch oven - prob 20 years - but still worked well - and now replaced it with another Bosch - still happy . You could take a look at the productreview dot com dot au website.
