All of our stoves are already using ceramic. I don't know if all but many use robax and it is a ceramic. I will bet some use the pyroceram also.SMITTY wrote:I'll bet due to the fact that ceramics can handle thermal shock (one side can be 1000* & the other -40* without breakage), this type of glass won't get the typical hairline cracks that seem to plague all our stoves after a couple seasons of burning.

Yeah your right ....... I spaced on that one. I remember the sticker saying it was ceramic now that you mention it.
Although the website says Robax is glass ceramic ... while the others say transparent ceramic. I wonder if that is just a play on words or if they are pure, vs. a mixture?
