My only question is will this fucking thing be constantly cycling on and off like a modern stove, or will it allow temperatures in excess of 800 degrees if left on high?

>My old stove was electric and I had no issues.

Electric is very efficient in that the heat is concentrated in the electrical heating element which is directly in contact with the bottom of the pot or pan, (particularly a coil-type stove) whereas with a gas stove, the pot/pan is above the flame (otherwise it would go out) and thus X percent of the heat escapes around the sides instead of being directed into the water that needs to be boiled.

open windows on a windy day and make sure you have a draft in your apartment, put all the hotplates on full power and wait until they all glow red, let them glow a 4-5 minutes, turn them all off and let them cool down, make sure to keep the windows open for a while, your problem should be solved
