The CE304C/B is a 30-inch radiant electric cooktop with four elements beneath ceramic glass, Contemporary trim with controls printed directly into the black glass surface. Like Wolf’s other CE cooktops, it accepts any flat-bottomed cookware regardless of whether the base is magnetic, unlike the induction lines.
A cracked or chipped section of the glass surface is a straightforward physical repair, but it is worth treating with some urgency on a cooktop like this: continuing to use a cooktop with compromised glass around an active heating element carries real risk, and it should not wait the way a minor cosmetic chip elsewhere in the kitchen might.
