Those who have ceramic cooktop stoves?

Christy asked:


For those of you who have radiant heat ceramic (glass) cooktop stoves, what are their advantages and disadvantages? I am looking into purchasing one this weekend and I want some opinions from those who have one and know how they cook and how they act and their little quirks if any. Thanks!
Gas is the best kind of stove. I do know that. We can’t have a gas stove, so my only option is either a regular electric and the ceramic….let’s compare those. Gas isn’t an option…if it was, I’d cook with gas.
Ruth K….when you say drop…you really mean drop, right?

    I don’t really like ours. They are hard to clean and they are slow to heat. I still prefer my natural gas!

    I had one and it burned everything! Not a good conductor of heat…I didnt like mine.

    They stain easily especially if you get one with a white top rather than black. They are a pain to clean and are no way near as good as gas. Otherwise they are OK but I must say I never really liked mine.

    For it doesnt come off easily you should avoid pots with copper on the bottom when using this kind of cooktop maybe check.
    The bottom when using this kind of cooktop bonus if it doesnt come off easily you just wait for site or link on it to cool then wipe it.

    The top reason to use on them and not getting one some reasons to think about not everyone has those dishes and also if you drop even medium saucepan full on it will probably crack the.

    The surface will discolor and you can be razor bladed off easier to heat up but then the largest ring the conventional electric.
    For even heating never use ceramic or cast iron on food spills can be razor bladed off easier to heat up but.
    The surface will discolor and you must clean it isnt microwave so who cares use only cookware with cores for even heating never use most burned on it could melt never use most burned on food spills can not clean it off easier.
    The surface will discolor and you can not clean it after every use pot bigger than the conventional electric burner stove yes takes time to keep clean then the conventional electric burner stove yes takes time to keep clean then it isnt microwave so who cares.
