A glass top stove looks sleek and modern in any kitchen, but it does require a little bit of special care to keep it from getting scratched or stained. At ABC Appliances & Services, we want your kitchen to look amazing, so we’ve put together a few easy tips to help you maintain your smooth-top range.

The most important rule is to avoid sliding your pots and pans. Even if the bottom of your pan feels smooth, sliding it across the glass can cause tiny scratches over time. Always lift your cookware when moving it from one burner to another. Also, try to use pots with flat bottoms; this ensures the heat is even and prevents the glass from overheating in one specific spot.

When it comes to cleaning, wait for the stove to cool down completely before wiping it. Using a wet sponge on a hot glass surface can actually cause the glass to crack! For daily cleaning, a simple mix of water and vinegar works great. For tougher, burnt-on food, use a cleaner specifically made for glass tops and a soft cloth. Avoid using steel wool or abrasive sponges, as these will dull the shine of the glass.

By following these simple steps, your stove will stay shiny and work perfectly for years to come.
