Thanks but I think works on certain types of pots...the non metal pots cannot work.

I use infrared at home. Personally I think it's OK for simple cooking. And if you make soup with ceramic pot, infrared is the choice and not induction.
But if you fancy high flame wok hei kind of cooking, you need to stick with gas.
Just to add, if you want safety especially for kids, induction is the way. Cos other than those induction pots, anything else (even your hand) placed on it will not draw any heat. But personally I have not tried induction to know if there will be residue heat on the surface (infrared does) that can hurt badly if you remove the pot and instantly touch the panel.

Charcoal and wood is safest.

Yes, one can smell and see it if it is still burning
