Hello Donna, I've just joined the stylist group, I'm a retired food 
service/Caterer /restaurateur , and am totally blind I just purchased a 
Whirlpool Glass top stove, with knobs to turn off and on the burners, I've 
found that this model, and many of the glass tops, have a slightly razed 
area where the burners are located I can usually find the correct spot to 
place my pot, before I turn the burner on. The oven controls are still touch 
panel buttons, but are made in such a way that the only thing I haven't 
concord is changing the temperature , although I really don't change the 
temperature very often because I cook at (350-) and rarely change that 
setting. I had a (L.G.) glass top that I didn't like at all, it was my first 
experience with a glass top stove, and it was very difficult to use, a small 
bit of advice only use the recommended cleaner on the glass top, and never 
use any abrasive metal scrubbers. I hope this helps your friend, you can 
give her my E-mail address for more info. Paul E Baver
