    My house came with a gas stove. I can replace it but obviously it will cost a lot. I also know it’s usually good to not throw a working appliance out even if it’s not as efficient. I’m just wondering with everything on the table, should I throw out my gas stove? It’s really hard for me to weigh the pros and cons because it’s not clear how bad the cons are. Its obviously bad to use a gas stove but just how bad is it?

      If you have young children, there’s a higher chance they’ll develop asthma. For that reason, I’m planning on trying to move to electric over the next couple of years.

        We don’t have kids (yet) which is why it’s harder for us to weigh the pros and cons.

      Getting the wiring for my stove cost more than the stove. Electricians are expensive!
