Thank you. I'm more interested in brands. I her Jenn Air is awful, Wolf is great.

My crappy electric glass cooktop cracked. I have the appropriate gas line to install it for the kitchen. I have one shot to pick the right appliance. Thoughts? I will take any and all input; don't know whether we will spend top cash or mid-range for an acceptable second.

After reading many threads, articles, etc., I have decided to pitch my Pyrex bakeware. I am curious if anyone has thought about glass lids for skillets, stoneware, etc. Do you feel comfortable keeping & using these? I know I've knocked the glass lid on the side of my cast iron skillet a few times while putting it on. I suppose it could be compromised...
