This evolution required an extremely sturdy stove base on which to set a large, heavy pressure cooker. Looking around for something like a "glass" top, we were soon disabused of the notion a glass-topped stove top would be sufficiently strong to support a very heavy canning pressure cooker (16-24 1/2 pint full cans). As stated before, it isn't your normal cooking; however, anything comparable to any weight I described may not be advisable when thinking about a glass range top.

Jeff, the cooking stove top is not glass, it is only a cover that is glass, providing a flat surface for other jobs when you are not using the stove top. Kind of like an extended countertop. Once you open it, you have standard gas stovetop with grates to cook on. The glass cover folds in half and serves as a grease/splash guard for the back wall.
