> "I hate the smooth glass electric stoves, if a pan is even slightly warped it won't work."

I had this issue and ended up replacing my set of cheap and cheerfull, thin-ish and slightly warped pans with heavy, thick stainless steel ones that hopefully don't have a tendency to warp. So far so good.

Gah, same, but now my triple clad stainless steel -> copper -> stainless steel pot takes forever to heat up because of how thick it is.

I bought an electric kettle for tea but that doesn't help keep noodles from taking 16 minutes to make, the first 10 of which is boiling the water.

Now I am using gas, so my next purchase is going to be another cheap thin pot that heats up before the rest of dinner is done.
