Stones and stainless and some ceramic.

We had a flat top electric stove in our last home. I liked it. We kept a cast iron comal to warm tortillas on a back burner and never had an issue.
I do recommend getting a cleaner designed for the stove top. I found it easier to keep it clean if I wiped it down each night (and used cleaner on any spots that needed it). Every once in awhile I had to use a scraper (something the builder gave us when we closed on the home) to gently scrape stuck on messes.
We have a gas stove in our current home (big move 2 years ago). I like it too, but sometimes I miss how easy it was to wipe down the stove top without lifting two big heavy grates out of the way and not worrying about knocking the covers off the burners.
