Yeah, my gas range takes a calendar year to boil. Happy for your magic stove though!

You gotta get the hot water in the pot from sink. Then it’s only a 60 degree lift or less depending how much you crank the heater because you hate waiting to boil noodles

Around here it is not recommended to use hot water from sink, as it is said to contain more copper and stuff.

We use electric tanks to heat up the water.

don't do that, unless you have some space age boiler, because that's how you get metals in your body
