The NEM5466UC is Bosch’s compact 500 Series radiant electric cooktop, 23 inches across its glass. Compact radiant cooktops are common in rental properties, and the problem they present there is not mechanical but behavioural – the ceramic surface looks like a worktop, and tenants put things on it. A plastic container left on a zone that still shows residual heat melts onto the glass, and cleaning melted plastic off ceramic is a delicate job that has to be done while the surface is warm.
