Oven glass shatters without warning

Oven doors shatter due to two main reasons: the type of glass used and imperfections within it. Most ovens use tempered soda lime glass, which is less tolerant to thermal changes, or durable borosilicate glass.

However, tiny flaws like nickel sulfide inclusions can cause the glass to break spontaneously, particularly during high heat cycles such as self-cleaning. To prevent such incidents, it’s important to handle oven doors gently, avoid using scouring tools or placing heavy objects on the door, and ensure dishes inside the oven don’t touch the glass.

Simple precautions like using soft cleaning tools and avoiding temperature shocks can significantly reduce the risk of shattering, keeping your kitchen safe and your oven in good working condition.

I believed I had chosen a man who, despite his rough edges, wanted nothing more than to share his life with me and his little boy. I told myself I was lucky—I had stepped into a ready-made family where I could finally pour out all the love I had always carried but never had the chance to give a child of my own. Mark had a son from his first marriage. Ethan was just six when I met him. He was small for his age, a little shy, with brown hair that never stayed in place no matter how many times Mark tried to slick it back with water or gel. He wore mismatched socks that made me smile, carried his favorite action figure in his pocket like it was a secret weapon, and ate strawberries as if they were treasure.

When I married Mark, I thought my life was finally falling into place. I had no idea it would unravel into something that sounded like one of…
