We had a ceramic hob in our flat 23 years ago and I liked it. When we moved into our old house and re-fitted the kitchen we couldn't ever find one within our budget so went for a conventional electric hob, plus the gas supply didn't run as far as the kitchen. I hate electric hobs, they're slow to heat up and slow to cool down, and difficult to adjust the heat mid-cooking. We've got a gas one in this house, I love it - I was thrilled to bits when I noticed it was a gas hob and not an electric one. It's easy to adjust and I find it quick and easy to clean and it's cooled down by the time we've finished eating so can be cleaned while the kettle's boiling for a drink
With the electric one I used to have to wait hours before it had cooled enough to be cleaned.
