From your question, I assume you ar replacing the entire range - not just the coil elements. If so, you are wise to look for an electric coil replacement rather than a glasstop. Although glasstops have improved and can be used to can food, they continue to be problematic when used to can foods.
Although I can not recommend a specific brand or model, look for a range with elements that are heavy, set level and provide adequate support for the weight of a full canner, and are large enough to accommodate the bottom of your canner with less than an inch overlap.
I hope this has been of help.
