Product review (5 stars): A great canning element
I bought this element because my gas stove quit.  I have used it all this canning season and love it!  I use mainly a pressure canner.  In fact, I bought another one because I know the price will go up.  It heats quickly and hasn't damaged my electric cook top at all.  I have just left it one the stove and am using it for everyday use due to its quick and even heating.  If you have any doubts....forget them! This element is great!
