Looked this up: Aluminum pans will not work at all on induction cookptops. Aluminum is a non-ferrous metal and is not magnetic. Do not discount composite pans, however, there may be layers of aluminum and stainless steel sandwiched together. Again, try the magnet test. We tested, and this cookware fails the magnet test.

I haven't used it on induction cooktop. But pan is right balance of heavy weight without being clumsy and easy to clean. Cooks evenly on regular electric burner. Hope that helps.

You could definitely use the set on an induction cook top. It is stamped on the bottom of the pots.

Yes. I currently have an induction stovetop and use only this stove for all of our cooking needs. So far I've had the TFAL set for about 4 months and this is the best cookware I have ever owned. Far better than my prior non-stick set and several other types of general cookware I've purchased. I still like my cast iron for some things like eggs. The pans get very hot very easily on the induction stove so I rarely use them with anything higher than medium heat. This simple set allows me to cook just about everything I normally cook on the stove top.

I believe the answer is yes but I have not tested the pots on induction yet. I've used only a gas burner. But we have induction in our other house and I have been careful to check new pan purchases for use on induction. Not totally helpful I know.

Aluminum, copper or glass cookware will not work unless they have a layer on the bottom with magnetic properties. As this product is aluminum, I do not think it will work with induction cook tops / stoves.

Yes, it says it is (in very small print). Also, you can only use iron or stainless steel cookware on it, because it works using magnetism. Most cookware today is aluminum. I would up getting a second Aroma cooktop that was not induction, since most of my pots and pans are cast aluminum. I'm remodeling my kitchen and needed to be able to cook at least sometimes.

This is a year's old question but I wanted to answer it as I had the same question. GraniteWare most certainly can be used on induction cooktops IF the Granite Ware in question has a steel core to it. This one does. Granite Ware as a brand advertise that all of their products have "carbon steel core for strength.". Be advised though...the product you are looking at (the 11x7 baking tin) is a oven product and thus is not designed for *any* cooktop.

We use ours on gas cooktop but when I was researching the cookware it stated induction compatible

NO! It can not be used on induction - so sad. I ordered a whole set based on previous answers, but should have looked closer - the first answer said they have an induction type stovetop. It does NOT work on my induction stovetop.

yes, i believe any all-clad piece can be used on an induction cooktop as its outer shell is stainless steel.

I don't know about the induction cooktops. I can tell you for sure that I LOVE these fry pans! Easy breezy clean up, a little oil to do eggs and the price is definitely right!Enjoy them, you won't see sorry you got them!

No. According to the manufacturer, this cookware is not dishwasher safe. This is one of the "dealbreakers" that made me return this set (which I got as a gift). The other fatal flaw is the copper in the base. I have an induction cooktop and one of the advantages is that when you turn down the "heat", the pan responds immediately, much like gas. However the copper core retains so much heat, for so long, it's like cooking on regular electric again. This set works on induction cooktops, but the heat retention eliminates one of the best features of induction cooking.

The only cookware that can be used on an Induction cook top is ones that can be magnetized. Get a small magnet and test the bottom of the ones you already have. If you don't have enough, take the magnet with you when you shop. Some pans already say induction ready on the bottom. Hope this helps.
