It's common with this type of gas burners.... One of the pipes supplying gas to the burner have dislodged from it's place for a while unknown to you...

So it's been flaring silently under the burner.... Thus smelting the body of the stove.... So I am guessing you had something on fire and Left it for a while...

This time it disintegrated it.... Avoid all those cheap chinko made gas burners....

Buy the local type made of rods.... That there no covering or binaton

That gas doesn't look like something that hasn't been used up to a month.

The burners are rusted and the metal plate around the knobs as well unless you bought it from someone who had previously used it.
That's not what he said, rather he said that "In the last one month plus he hasn't used the gas"

So this happens all the time with glass covered pcs in contact with ceramic tiles. It may be the same issue you have here.

It's glass top. Normal things.

The day mine happened, if i wasn't there, I would have accused those at home if hitting it with something.

Since then, i stopped buying glass top.

In this case I believe the glass top has expired and would no longer withstand the heat.

However, thermal stress will make glass shatter when cooled rapidly after it has been exposed to heat.

My Glass-Top Stove Suddenly Shatters When Not In Use, Shards Fly 5 Metres Into the corridor..
I was in the room when I heard a loud crack from the kitchen due to the tempered glass spontaneously shattering, which sent shards flying five metres away into the corridor.

The glass continued cracking for about 30 minutes until it was fully shattered. I have not used this stove for about a month plus. so the surface was not hot..
Please what could be the cause of this.
this thing happened to me last month too o I was confused as Bleep.

I’ve had similar experience, mine was in use and the level shattering was as if someone hit it with hammer but the luck I had was nobody was in the kitchen as at when the incident happened

So I don’t advise anyone to buy this type because it’s dangerous


Which is the best the metal one I bought is rusting from the gas pipes?

This could have had serious impacts had someone been present when it shattered. Looks like it has expired but the expiry dates are never on the cooker. I used that Thermocool gas cooker in early 2000s and exact same situation played out.
No standard adherence in Nigeria by the manufacturers and importers. The SON and other regulatory agencies are just rubber stamps in the country angry angry angry angry

Did you buy it as tokunbo or Nigerian used?

Because from what i am seeing, it looks 2yrs old

Original one goes from 50k upwards, and you will notice the difference when using it compared to China made, it barely stains your pot and the fire is pure blue.

I used to own this same table top gas burner.

Omoh. The efficiency of this gas top is second to none. Very very fast!

Mine also shattered like this after the second year.

I now use the bigger standing gas cooker.. But damn, everytime I cook, I still miss this old gas cooler.

Thermal stress!

Is your kitchen properly ventilated?
Or do you have adequate heat extraction means?


I guess you see why AC is put in modern kitchens now?

I used a few of these cookers commercially for some years and experienced nthis about 3times out the f about 6 of them. So it's a 50/50 chance that it will happen to this glass top thermacool cookers. Very annoying.
It has nothing to do with expiration because one of them occoured in a few months of purchase while others lasted a bit over a year. It's just a case of sub standard glass being used for the top. And they all shattered when they had cooled and just sitting there.
Sad news is, no replacement top anywhere so it's junk when this happens.
