I have gas, always have. Dirt cheap to operate. Same with Gas Dryers, if you can get used to the whoomph when they start.
Of COURSE that's a little exageratted, but the Philippines is (has been) notorious for all kinds of fire/deaths that are the result of electricity or gas.
We have a very old but very large gas oven/range/grill that does not have all it's pilots operating correctly so I have to light the oven ... she won't go near it for the whoomph.
