Never had an induction cooktop.
I've only had electric ring, electric smooth top and now I have gas. I'm not much of a cook, at all, so my appliances don't get alot of use. The smooth top I really liked, because it was easy to clean & always looked good sitting there. When I moved, my son, (who can actually cook...) requested an electric wall oven & a gas cooktop, as I was replacing all the appliances.
Gas is great to cook on. Having had it, I'd never want anything else. Although, the gas cooktop is a pain to keep clean. I given up ever getting the burners to look how they did when it was new. My gas cooktop is only vented by my above the range microwave that just recirulates the air after going through a charcoal filter. It's to code where I live & was installed by a licensed installer. I've never had any issues with it, going on 2-3 years now. A CO2 detector is just feet away & never goes off when I'm cooking on the gas cooktop, but it has gone off briefly when I've burned stuff in the toaster.
I'd check & see what's required by Code where you live.
