I don't see any possibility of cracking--it doesn't when you are cooking--and even spill water on it. The fan shuts off if the temp goes too high. Bi-metal strips--but it is made for Wood stoves, and I have seen some of these get mighty hot.

Just wondering if the fan blowing through the lid cools the surface and if there wasn't that cooling affect would the ceramic crack.


When you are cooking on it, the fan isn't blowing through the lid, therefore I don't see any difference.

I seem to remember a caution somewhere about leaving the Wallas on High with neither the lid down or pot on burner, both of which reduce the surface temperature.
