I'd love one but would also be constantly terrified of breaking the top when cooking
My current place has a glass electric cooktop (please let me upgrade to induction) and I was worried about it to but I've had no issue. Just don't be slamming things around I guess. I think you'd have to be pretty crazily just like dropping cast iron pans on it or get unlucky.
Unlucky is my fear haha.
Big pro for them is also easier to clean if you don't have to remove parts when cleaning
I use huge pans, cast iron, and more on the stove and I'm not exactly a graceful creature and so far not broken. I really think it would be bad luck to like put a pan down and the top shatters haha. Definitely possible though.
Cleaning is nice though. Spray down and wipe. Maybe a little powder sprinkled on for extra power of something got cooked on. Easy
I've never had a problem, nor have I ever heard of this issue. Although to be fair I haven't looked into it.
I know one dude who broke it, but I imagine that had a lot more to do with him than the stove
Just the thought of accidentally bringing the pan too hard down on the glass.
Or past trauma from shattering iPad screens
