We’ve used Cooktop Cleaning Creme for several years now, and we review its performance here. We find it to work as well as the other glass top range polishes we’ve tested. Cooktop brand cleans the hardened, baked on grime. This builds up above the burners on our flat top Whirlpool electric stove.
Cook Top Brand is an effective, low-fume, non abrasive thick liquid cleaner. It looks like a white liquid cleanser such as Soft Scrub. But they designed it to restore these stove tops without scratching, to near original shine.
Now these sealed glass top stoves offer the convenience of not having to soak and scrub the burners. Nor do you have to clean the burner pans, trays, and wiring underneath. But there is a downside. Cleaning spilled foods and liquids that harden on the glass above the burners is tough. Thus, stove cleaning is perhaps the most time-consuming kitchen cleanup task. But this Cooktop brand stove top glass cleaner, shortens this effort. Why? Because with its micro polishing particles, and gentle glass cleaners.
Cooktop Cleaning Creme Benefits, Pros, Features, and Advantages

Works equally well when applied with a rag as when rubbed on with a sponge. We prefer a rag though, as rags cost less to come by than sponges.

Not pungent. Has a gentle non bodacious smell. So you need no fans or open windows while using it. Plus, the scent fades quickly; within a minute or two of rinsing off the cleaner.

Cooktop Cleaning Creme Disadvantages, Cons, Problems, Limitations, and Concerns
Nothing Quick About \Cooktop Cleaning Creme Cleaner
This product may in fact be too gentle. So perhaps adding a little acid would shorten stove top cleaning times.
Cooktop Cleaning Creme Needs Lots of Elbow Grease
We find this polish and stovetop cleaner to work poorly for quickly removing burned on ground beef grease. So for those messes, we had to scrub many times over a week or more; once after each burner use where the mess was. The repeated heating and cooling of subsequent uses seems to work better than this cleaner. Scrubbing as part of the daily kitchen cleanup erodes these stains away completely, over time.
How to Clean Your Flat Top Glass or Ceramic Stove with Cooktop Cleaning Creme
Start with a cool stove top. Allow at least a half-hour after last use before cleaning, to cut chances of burns.
Next, use a metal spatula or other scraping blade to remove bulk, crusted on debris.
Then, shake well the bottle of Cooktop Cleaning Cream.
Next, apply liberally to dirtiest parts of surface.
Then, rub hard with a soft dish cloth.
Continue rubbing until dirt resistance on the glass fades, and the scrubbing operation becomes almost silent. Listen to the scrubbing sounds, to tell when the grime has gone. Listen, because it may be hard to see through the cleaning cream layer just applied.
Once you feel that the stove top is clean, rinse with fresh water.
Finally, dry and buff with a dish towel.
Prevent buildup of hard to remove food stuff by cleaning your stove top after each use. Polishing it in little steps like this makes unnecessary any long cleaning sessions that can take days.
