    Hi Richard. My stove has a glass top. I use a magic eraser to clean it.

    If it is a glass top.... they make a special cleaner and conditioner for that... several different brands.

    For every day cleaning.. greasy stuff... I use Simple Green, a no-scratch green scrubby and a razor scraper.... then remove any residue from the Simple Green with Windex and paper towels (also... before you turn on the burners give them a quick swipe with the Windex and paper towels to remove any dust and stuff) Avoid using a soapy dish rag... as the soap residue will bake on as soon as the element heats up.

    If they are the black pans, do not stick them in the dishwasher (or use oven cleaner). I did it and ruined the finish.

    Hot soapy water and a bit of steelwool does the trick. If they are old and really bad, and the stove is in a good shape, you can find affordable replacements.

    If you are referring to the coils, I just remove them and scrub them in hot soapy water with a dish brush. Let them completely dry in a dish drainer, before putting them back.
