lifestyle 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2007 Hi everyone,Would like your opinions and comments from forumer here who got a glass cook top with gas type (not viturous type) and cooks a lot for the family everyday...any issues with the cleaning of the glass top?Was told by the sales person that must wait about 1hr for the glass top to cool down (after doing a long continous cooking say 1-2hr) before do any cleaning on the glass top as the glass is still warm-hot...is it true?Any other disadvantages with the glass top that you experiences. Our maid is usually do all the cooking...and you know how certain maid work... Deciding today (Fri) to get the hob..most likely a stainless steel type but defintely prefer the looks of the glass top.

applefreak 1 Report post Posted June 29, 2007 i had toyed with the idea of getting a glass hob too but read about a forummer's whose glass 'exploded' while cooking think the glass needs to cool down before cleaning coz sudden drop in temperature will cause the glass to shrink too fast resulting in 'explosions' saw the turbo one, cheap but warranty for glass only 6mthsguess glass is a volatile material so however careful you may be, it might still break...

applefreak 1 Report post Posted June 29, 2007 another thing i learned from the turbo SA is that DO NOT drop anything sharp on the glass, heavy still not so badreason being the sharp object may have compromised the integrity of the glass e.g. some minute crack which is not visible to the nake eyeso next time something heavy drop on it, the glass will crack or worse 'explode' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
