Your Glass Top Stove Can Shatter If You Make This Mistake

And sometimes the damage isn’t immediately dramatic. A tiny crack can develop first and become worse over time.

The Mistake That Can Damage Your Glass Cooktop

This can include:

A hot pan

A hot saucepan lid

A Dutch oven

A baking dish

A kettle

A cast-iron skillet

A hot roasting pan

A griddle

A heat-retaining trivet or cookware accessory

The problem isn’t simply that the object is hot.
