I have used both gas and electric. Electric still takes time to cool down so you must always have a place to put the pot if you want the heat to stop immediately. A boil over can be a problem if all your burners are in use. Must always have a trivet on the counter to handle that sort of thing. I prefer to see the flame to make adjustments to the heat.
Love cooking with gas and am so glad our current home has natural gas.
