The coating on the bottom of my griddle is coming off and leaving deposits on my glass stovetop. Any comments?

Wow! Sure it's not flakes of "burnt stuff"? Mine isn't... Sounds defective and I'd return!

I'm not having any problem with mine. I also have a glass stovetop. No suggestions.... Except to enforce to warranty.

I just ran a magnet over the bottom of the griddle and it DID NOT adhere to any section of it. I believe the griddle is aluminum and non magnetic.

..check on how level your griddle is..sounds like it's flowing away from the side grease spout is on.. if you get it exactly level, you can just scrape it towards the drain..have it just slightly forward..

I haven't - it's probably deposits from your water supply adhering to the kettle while it's boilingI use only RO water (reverse osmosis) in my kettle and it looks brand new after more than a year of daily use. Try cleaning it with some CLR - that stuff works great on rust and hard water deposits

I use that stove top cleaner for flat top stoves and it comes right off... It's not real grainy stuff so it doesn't scratch the pot. If you don't have that I'd say you could use a little soft scrub. Hope this helps...

I have the same problem (food burns and sticks to bottom of pan). And yes, I also have an electric stove.

I'm thinking about ordering this cookware. I read one review saying that it scratched the cooktop. Has anyone else had this happen?

Mine were fine until they too the phosphates out of dishwasher soaps. Google it and you'll find that this has ruined a lot of cookware.

the same thing happened to my pan and I just cover it with aluminum foil then spray that with cooking spray. turns out completely fine PLUS there's no cleaning that way. :)

I wish I could help, but I've only had mine for three years. I can tell you that the inside coating still looks new: nothing sticks to them. The silver on the outside is dis colored....more of a tarnished silver look - but only where my gas flame touches the pan. (I cook 1-3 times daily so they get LOTS of use.) The silver sides and handle are shiny and new looking. I've even purchased more of these pans! (14 inch skillet and the griddle). All in all, three years into my investment and I'm still thrilled with these pans.

I believe this is probably just accumulated "baked on" residue from your grilling activities over an extended period of time. I periodically brush the "flaking pieces" off, GENTLY, with the wire brush I use to clean the caste iron cooking grates. I then brush off the flakes that fall onto the cooking grate and surrounding area so they don't affect future grilling activities. I don't believe these flakes are any type of hazardous coating coming loose from the inside of the grill's cover.

Try using some of the stuff used for the ceramic (or glass) stove tops and a scouring pad. Good luck ! ! !

We 'ruined' our glass top stove but, it was our fault. Be sure to clean the bottom of the pan as if it were the inside! Our burners look like 33 1/3 LP's!!

not really sure since I have not yet ran into that problem. However, it sounds like the coating is just wearing off.

I did put mine in the diswasher when I was in a hurry. it stained the aluminum on the bottom of the pan. It is so quick to clean it that I usually do not mind just swishing a little soapy water and a rag in it and then rinsing and drying quickly. So easy to take care of. I have electric elements. No glass top. However, my daughter has glass top and she uses ceramic lined pans on her stove.

I would guess it is an electronic problem. I would ask for a new one if relatively new, or it could be just a buildup of particles from cooking, etc.. Contact Kidde.

The teflon coating on my unit's burner has also mostly disappeared. I know it's strictly a cosmetic issue, but it's still aggravating and ugly to look at nonetheless.
