    Presumably so that they can use that side for prep without worrying about it being hot. However OP should check that the bottom rim of those plates and bowls is fully glazed, otherwise they’ll end up scratching the glass surface.

      Really? It was my understanding that these glass stove tops were pretty much the toughest glass available. I know I used to clean off dried spills with a razor scraper when I lived in a home that had one.

        unglazed ceramic, and specially chipped ceramic, is particularly efficient at messing up glass. A steel razor is a soft caress by comparison.

      I’ve never heard of people taking the knobs off their stove to use one side of it for prep. Is it that hard to simply keep the knobs at 0? That way you have the option of using them if you want to.
