Does the upper pan have a flat bottom? I need to use it as a double boiler and a regular pan.Many thans, L. C.

I packed mine away do to pitting & refusal of company to replace w/o receipt. BUT if I recall properly the top pan was lighter weight than the bottom.Don't know if you would want to use it as a regular pan.It also recommends hand washing.

No this is a double boiler used for tempering chocolate and cooking various other items. It is not made for steaming. The top pot also has a rounded bottom it does not sit flat.

That's a good idea. I would think as long as the bottom of the top pot doesn't touch the bottom pot - and the handles could prevent that - it would work fine as a double boiler.

The bottom is completely flat. I have a glass top stove too. BE AWARE all porcelain bottomed cookware will bond to a glass cooktop if you use a high heat setting. It is reccomened that you use only a MEDIUM HEAT setting to prevent this. When I use my kettle I place it on a trivet to cool off and empty the water out. I love this pot, it takes a tad longer to get to boiling but it is worth it. * the whistle is very pleasant and not ear spitting so stay in close range while you wait for it to sing to you

The bottom is not flat and this would be much too heavy full for a glass top even if the bottom was flat when it was full of water and jars.I am not sure there are flat bottom granite ware? I've never seen any anyway.Many people just buy a 23 quart Presto pressure canner and use it as a water bath too.You can do a single layer of 7 quart jars at a time in it and it works on glass top stoves.

The bottom is flat. We have a flat ceramic stove top and haven't had any issues. This is a great pan.

I just have a regular electric stove - however, I can't imagine why it couldn't be, since it has the flat bottom - just like any other pot or pan.

it does have a flat bottom....flat as they come. being that i do not have a glass top stove, i can only say, that a person would "not" want to slide it from burner to burner.....but "lift" it. that part would have to be your decision. i know i love mine, and would definitely buy another.

Yes, the bottom is flat. However, the paint is ceramic and someone else said that the ceramic paint will stain a ceramic stovetop if you put the heat on high.

Yes, this kettle has a flat bottom. This is a great tea kettle, I'm sure you will enjoy yours as much as I do mine on my glass top stove.

I bought this pan to use on my son's new 'glass top' stove and there wasn't a problem. It worked very well and heated evenly. The bottom was flat.

Yes, it has a flat bottom and I am finding it as my "go to" pot! I like this pot best out of all the Anolon set I have.Enjoy

Dear Bobbie,Thank you for your inquiry.Yes the bottom is flat, Please keep in mind this is a stir fry so it doesn't have as much surface area on the bottom as a saute would.Thank you for allowing us to be of service to you.Sincerely,Tonia D.

The flat bottom is not as flat as glass, but is usable. Looking from inside, the edge of the bottom has a ring that is slightly deeper than the center of the bottom. My stove is glass top. The only thing to deal is the maintained of the pan from rust.

Mine was a flat bottom. However, I would suggest calling the Wok Shop - they are super nice and really helpful!
