Starting to plan new kitchen. DP insists a gas hob is quicker to get pans up to heat, and easier to adjust down or up. I keep reading that the newer electric hobs are much much better that the old ones. And they look nicer than gas don't they?
I have a really weak sense of smell, so I always worry about the flame going out (although do all new gas hobs come with automatic gas cut out in this situation? ), so I's considering the alternatives.
What do you think?

Electric hobs don't always look nicer than gas hobs. If you have a spill on an induction type one you have to scrape it off (tedious).

Also often, if the water boils over (not unheard of when cooking and MNing, let's be honest) then you can't turn the heat down because the controls are so close to the rings.

I HATE ours with a passion, can you tell?
