Iron pans are heavy and work horribly on anything but gas, which is even worse for the lungs.

They work phenomenally well on induction stoves! I use a single-burner plug-in induction unit in my small apartment kitchen and it works so well cast iron pans and an iron dutch oven.

They work just fine. If anything, the high heat capacity makes the heating more even if your heat source is unstable.
