When looking for an easy and effortless way of 𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚 𝐠𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐬 𝐭𝐨𝐩 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐯𝐞? There is no shortage of videos on glass top stove or cooktop cleaning tips and tricks ranging from baking soda, vinegar, and even hydrogen peroxide. After watching a few how-to cleaning a glass top stove, I see a lot of hysteria about using organic or natural cleaners on your stovetop!

If you are looking for info and tip on 𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚 𝐠𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐬 𝐭𝐨𝐩 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐯𝐞, you are at the right place! I was a teenager when my parents remodeled their kitchen and remembered my mom walking into Jefferson Ward (the “Best Buy” of the ’80s) and purchasing her first glass top stove. That particular unit was not a full-size stove but rather a top that inserted into our granite countertop. I also remember my mom struggling to keep the thing clean. She would spend hours every Sunday after church and even some times on Saturday night, if had people coming over for brunch, to make sure the kitchen looked presentable. Yes, despite all of this, if you ask my mom what type of stove she would rather have, she will tell you, without hesitation, a “glass top stove.”

I happen to agree unless you have the means and are willing to purchase one of those designers’ six-burner gas stoves (nothing more than a commercial stove with a brand sticker on it!) for about $10,000+, also choose a glass top stove. Another issue with a gas stove is the need for space. I have a friend who has one, and the thing is probably as wide as to of my glass top stove. Number two is the availability of city gas! Unless your house has access to city gas, I don’t recommend you getting a gas stove! I lived in the keys for a while and did the tank thing! Trust me when I say it is not the way to go, and if you have a gas BBQ grill, you can probably relate. How many times have you gone out to your back yard with a tray full of ribs to find out your grill is out of gas or even worse, you start grilling and halfway through one side, the burner turns off because you ran out of gas! Trust me, unless you have city gas, stay away from gas appliances, especially if you also intend to have a gas water heater and others.

The biggest complaint that many new owners of glass top stoves have is that they get dirty very quickly, and sometimes it is hard to get them clean. That is the reason I made this video. If you have the right tools and products, 𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚 𝐠𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐬 𝐭𝐨𝐩 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐯𝐞 is no big deal, and if you use the tips discussed in the video, you’ll appreciate how less dirty it gets.

Should I Choose A Glass Top Stove?

So, after setting the glass top stove vs. gas stove conversation aside, your only other choice is what is called an “element” stove. Grand you that today’s electric element stoves are a bit more sophisticated than they were just a decade ago, with some of these units offering a sealed design that keep boilovers and oil from dripping into the pan below, they are still inefficient and in many cases stuff still drips into the tray below. By the way, this also the case for gas stoves! If you have a boilover. You’ll be taking it all apart to clean it!

What do I mean by inefficient?

Stoves like hair dryers get rated on the amount of heat they produce. We measure this in BTUs or British Thermal Unit. The British thermal unit is a non-SI, traditional unit of heat specified as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit. It is also part of the United States customary units. When it comes to BTU’s and stove gas has an advantage and that is why it is the choice for all commercial applications. Don’t matter what Tesla and others tell you Gasoline is about 30 times more energy-dense than electricity and that is why we’ll never have an electric top fuel dragster! Natural gas and even propane have similar properties.

For this reason, to compare a gas stove to an electric is not a real apple to apple comparison. However, when comparing electric element stoves to glass top stoves is not fair either. It is like they say don’t bring a knife to a gunfight. The huge difference between electric element stoves and glass top stoves is in the design of the burner. Where in the electric element, the “element” aka the burner is just resting on a deck lid (stovetop) on a glass top stoves the heating element seats on a porcelain mold the direct the heat upward. The second advantage is the way temperature is controlled. Regular stoves use what we know as a voltage divider to control the temperate. That is a way to control how much electricity flows to a load. Glass top stoves, on the other hand, use sensors that turn that burner on and off. This way is a much better way to not only save on the use of electricity but also control temperature!
