New Glass Top Oven, 23 qt PC?

I know this sounds stupid but I'm buying a new glass top oven and the sales person did not know if a PC would work on it? I have to admit I don't know either. Does anyone out there use a 23 qt Presto PC on a glass top oven and what do you think about it and is there anything I should know before I make this $800 purchase?
Thanks

Can you put a pressure cooker on a glass top stove? There are three primary reasons why manufacturers recommend against canning on a glass top stove. The first is that many older canners have concave bottoms. When you combine a concave bottom with a flat surface, heat, and water, there is a risk that a seal will form between the canner and the stovetop.Aug 22, 2014 Canning 101: Can You Safely Can on a Glass Top Stove? - Food in Jars foodinjars.com/2014/08/canning-101-can-safely-can-glass-top-stove/

I second the hot plate. I got a broil king 1500 watt and it works great. Once in a blue moon I'll throw my pc on the stove when doing no pours or small stuff, but I rather the boss lady not kill me for breaking the stove top. Bonus I can bring it down into the shop and it never interferes with anything else.

Does that 1500 work as good as regular burner on a stove top? I'm trying to think of how long it takes my 23 qt Presto to get to 15 psi. I think less then an hour but I will time it next time.
Thanks

The 1500 works great. Bit slower than my stove, but my stove is a beast glass top with fast boil burners and all that fancy shit. That's why I'm not aloud to use it lol I figured the investment in the hot plate was worth not replacing a stove that cost a little under two grand. 1500 is pretty much the highest watt burner your going to get without using a 220 line. Another option is a gas burner, but you'd have to look into wether or no your pc is able to be used on a gas stove.

Never wanted to mess around with gas, so I didn't research much into it. I've herd of people running pc's on gas burners, but not sure what they were running. I'm happy with the burner I use for what I use it for, but I'm not pumping out tubs like a production line so it fits my needs. You can check out other brands and see what you come up with. Pretty much look for 1. 1500 watts or more (Pretty sure 1500 watts is about the top end before running it off a 220 line like a clothes dryer uses) 2. The largest diameter element you can find

Is that what you use? What brand name? So that other guy was wrong and the 23 qt presto does not warp from using a gas flame?
Thanks

Nope. That's what I've been using [ Presto 23 on Gas Burner Stove ] and it's been working fine. No warps.

Will that 1500 w handle a 23 qt Presto for the longer cooks? I saw they had a 1800 w also.

 This is what is in the owner manual. I never tried due to warning...
I use my hot plate for 2 hour cooks and all. Never had one issue with it
