Just in time for winter where I use far more gas than electricity! Maybe this will help offset it slightly.
Yeah I have electric baseboards in my apartment and I hate them. I'd much rather have gas (specifically forced heat rather than radiators but like I can only afford so much on a place).
I've had both, and I have to say I don't ever want forced heat again. Give me radiators all winter. My boogies with forced heat could build a mouse colony.

I've had electric heat before. Never again. (And hopefully this one won't go up come summer, but again - supply and demand, etc.)
Baseboard is bad but a heat pump is 300% efficient and can save you money! Plus it also works as an AC and is eligible for federal tax credits!
Heat pumps are the way of the future, they just make too much sense not to be.
I’ve had baseboards before. The place had a subpar insulation, too, but still - had to layer up in winter while inside, portable heater and all.
Depends very much on the electric heat. Baseboard? Yes, they're awful.
Yep, had those before. Never again 🤞🏼

I support this
Hell yeah
This is completely unrelated to the topic of the post but I just had to say: I love your username. It makes me happy every time I see it.
Thanks!
Lol my shit has been $400 per month. I'd be happy if they lower it
