I'm not sure about glass smooth tops but with standard electric/gas
stovetops those griddles that span two burners cause heat damage to
the stove top finish between burners (discoloring/crazing). I got
one as a gift as part of a holiday food basket and gave it to someone
who still wanted it after I warned them... it ruined their stove top.
If someone has a lot of griddling to do I recommend multiple standard
griddles, one per burner. For $73 one can certainly buy two/three
quality griddles.

Personally I've no use for ridged cookware (PIA to clean), for grill
marks an outdoor grill works best, or just use a magic marker and
don't tell anyone. lol
I prefer griddling with a large SS skillet or a large braizer, it's
high sides custs way down on spatter... this is a very nice piece of
cookware and has many uses, stovetop and oven:
