@Anouk Now see? I like my glass-top. When you slop it up (when I slop it up) it's easier to clean because I don't have to take it apart to do so.
I grew up with electric stove with the coil burners. Used to do the whole thing if something boiled over or whatever. Unplug the element, lift out the bowl, reach down in the hole to scrub it out. Or lift the top. Seems like I had a stove along the way that the top didn't lift up like a car hood.
I even wrapped the darn bowls in heavy duty foil.
@Anouk Now-a-days, I just wipe off the glass, If stuff gets really stuck, and I'm feeling ambitious, I break out the Bon Ami cleanser, give it a good scrub. Wipe it clean, and I'll even wax it!
