When we noticed the element was on we turned it off. It was a steel baking sheet, but under the pan the top had melted and there was a crack in the top. How could the glass top melt? Glass is suppose to melt at 2900 degrees and steem melts at 2400 degrees. How can the glass melt and not the steel?:mad:,

I do not know its melting temperature though. JMO Dan O. www.Appliance411.com The Appliance Information Site =D~~~~~~
