>> V,
>> The flat-top stoves technically have burners, how else would they work?
>> What you can do is place your hand gently over where you think the
>> burner is, of course keeping the heat on low so you don't burn yourself.
>>
>> You can also look into infrared stoves, which will warm a pan (get it
>> hot enough so you can effectively cook) but the area around the pan will
>> *not* get hot.
>> We had a flat-top stove in our old house, and it wasn't a problem.
>> We have an "old-fashioned" stove in the new house, and don't plan to
>> replace it anytime soon.
>> Cleaning a flat-top stove is a breeze.
>> As someone else said, make sure you love what you buy, because you'll be
>> using it everyday for years.
