Had an older Corning smooth top for years and it sucked. Hard to clean,
slow to heat, etc. Recently went to replace it with a coil type but
found the selection in our area extremely limited. Was in Sears and
they had a Whirlpool smooth top on the floor with a small dent in the
storage drawer so instead of the $599 sale price, they were selling it
for $329 so I bought it pretty much due to the price. It's nothing like
my old Corning. It heats up super fast, is a breeze to clean and the
oven has a so-called "Accubake System" that really does give excellent
result, IMO. As far as the top being breakable, we do not have any
storage above or near it, so unless someone gets crazy with a heavy pan
(and I wont), I am not really worried about that. One thing I'll note
is that with the particular pots and pans we have, we never need to
cook on any heat setting higher than medium, never.
