I purchased what I thought was a good quality Maytag electric stove about 10 years ago. It has coil burners which are getting slower and slower to heat up. Also, the electrical connectors on the coils sometimes do not make good contact and the coils do not come on until the coil is removed and then stuck back into the connector. What I am looking for is a better quality electric stove with higher power coils so that things heat up quicker. I also want a convection oven this time. Do you have any suggestions for well-built models? We do not have gas in our area.

Perhaps I should just replace all the coils (and their connectors) with new ones or perhaps you can get higher wattage replacement units--I just don't know. Coils (it seems to me) are more capable of rapid heatup than ceramic top ranges and will conform to my pots and pans which do not have perfectly flat bottoms. Perhaps the new induction stoves are the better way to go. I just don't know what to do.

I would appreciate any advice.

Thanks in advance
