What is the easiest cooktop to clean?
Generally, the easiest cooktops to clean are ceramic-glass electric cooktops, primarily because they are constructed with a smooth, flat surface that is simple to wipe down. This means you no longer have to chase food into hard-to-reach nooks and crannies. And if you want to avoid streaking your glass cooktop, avoid cleaning products with ammonium. affresh® cooktop cleaner2 is recommended by Maytag brand to help cut through tough cooked-on residues for a streak-free, polished shine.
Do electric cooktops scratch?
Electric cooktops can scratch; however, as long as you observe proper care of stovetop items, you can help avoid scratching your electric cooktop. By lifting cookware when it needs to be moved (as opposed to sliding it) and removing it when no longer in use, you can save wear and tear on your electric cooktop.
