00:00If you're redoing your kitchen, or you're just tired of scrubbing a stained old stovetop,
00:04tempered glass is the upgrade that actually makes a difference.
00:07It looks clean, it wipes down in seconds, and it doesn't cost what you'd expect.
00:12I went through the listings and pulled the 5 best tempered glass cooktops for home kitchens,
00:17based on real sales and real ratings. Let's get into it.
00:21First up, and the most popular one on this list, is this portable induction cooktop at $70.75.
00:291,800 watts, 20 temperature and power levels, and a black tempered glass surface that wipes clean in
00:34one pass. It's rated 4.6 with nearly $4,800 sold, and because it just plugs in, it works anywhere,
00:42a small kitchen, a dorm, or as extra cooking space when you're hosting.
00:46Honestly hard to beat at that price. Next is the Smart 5 Burner Stove at $193.48,
00:54and this is the one I'd call the sensible middle ground.
00:57Professional tempered glass top, built-in or countertop installation, 5 burners,
01:01and 4.6 stars from more than 4,700 buyers. If you want a full 5-burner setup in glass
01:08without pushing into the 240 range, this is where I'd stop and read the reviews myself.
01:14Then there's the 5-burner gas stove with electric ignition at $242.73.
01:20It's the priciest gas option here, and you can feel where the money went, thicker tempered glass,
01:25built-in or tabletop install, and push-button ignition, so no more hunting around for a lighter
01:30with wet hands. 5 burners means you can run a whole dinner at once. If gas is non-negotiable for
01:37you,
01:37this is the most substantial one. Fourth is a 3-burner gas cooktop at $178.17,
01:44and it's the only one in this lineup with a perfect 5-star rating across more than 4,000 sales.
01:503 burners sounds like a compromise, but the spacing is generous, so a big stock pot and a
01:55frying pan aren't fighting for room. It's listed for household and restaurant-style cooking both,
02:01which makes it a smart pick for tighter counters. Last one is this Arrival 5-burner gas
02:06at $117.84, and the value here is a little silly. 5 burners, electronic ignition, and multi-level
02:14flame adjustment, so you can actually dial the heat down to a simmer instead of scorching everything.
02:20Rated 4.7 from over 3,800 buyers, and it's the best-rated gas model on the list.
02:26If the last one was more than you wanted to spend, start here.
02:30One tip before you buy, measure your counter cutout and match it to the listing,
02:34because gas and induction need different openings, and that's the one thing that trips people up.
