FYI, if you have an electric coil stove the elements wear out over time but they're super easy to replace - you basically just unplug it and plug in a new one and they're pretty cheap, you can get a set of 4 for US$35.

I just replaced my front right coil and I still have issues with uneven heating, so while it's true they wear out, it is not always the problem.

What if they are embedded in glass?

It's doable but it's more work and the heating elements are not standardized/common, you'll have to get the right part from the manufacturer (assuming they still make it for your stove model).

Came here to say this. Or just switch the one burner for the one you don’t use.
