I'm shopping for our first kitchen reno and drowning a little in the sheer number of options, but I think we've decided on the GE Profile line (except for the D/W).

Does anyone have any experience with the GE Profile Gas on Glass range PGS968SEPSS?
I like the look and how easy it will be to clean, but the salesperson I am dealing with is steering me away from it as he claims it is not difficult to break the glass top. Is he being paranoid or is this a legitimate concern? The stainless top will be so much hard to keep clean and it looks like I would have to switch to the black model (which I don't want to do) to get the black enamel top.

Thanks Everyone!

Since it looks so clean, the small ring of crud that forms at the burner/surface interface is obvious enough to require occasional removal of burner heads. This requires a torex head screwdriver for the KA. And speaking of KA/Whirlpool, the morons didn't use stainless screws and I am going to have to drill one pair out because they are rusted on.

I can imagine a breakage scenario. I store cast iron griddles above my double wall ovens and I managed to drop one 3 feet onto my open oven door. Fortunately it only put a nice dent into the inner door frame rather than smashing through the glass window. My burners are on an island so I shouldn't be able to duplicate that screw up over the cook top. A range with a hood would probably be similarly protected from that maneuver.
