. I wonder how expensive it would be to get gas stove? Who in the hell builds a house with gas but not gas stove?!
Is there a gas outlet coming out of the wall behind your electric stove? If there is, changing the stove out is easy. if you are lucky, they ran gas to the stove when the house was built. If there is no outlet (capped pipe) coming out of the wall, then gas service would have to be run. Not impossible, but maybe $500 - $1000 depending on where the closest gas line is and whether they can snake it down the wall behind the stove, or up through the floor if your house has a conventional (raised) foundation.

To my knowledge there is nothing wrong with getting a ceramic/ glass cooktop very hot?
The issues come from drastic changes in temp. You don't want to put a pot from the fridge on a hot glass surface. But as far as getting the surface hot, they can withstand like 2000 degrees usually. You aren't going to melt them.

The quote I got a few years ago was around $500, but that included hooking up a range. I have a full basement, and the gas line comes in the back of the house and goes to the middle of the basement to the water heater and furnace. I could T off of the line and it is maybe 15 feet max to where the stove is. Too long to use just a flex hose, so it would be metal pipe to there then the flex to the range. At the time we were renovating a downstairs bath into a laundry/half bath, followed by converting the old den into a master bath with walk in closet. I already had a few guys out working on plumbing so I asked them to give me a quote. We were planning on renovating the kitchen at some point, but life gets in the way.
