I've never used a pressure cooker before. I assume you would want a constant source of heat to retain the pressure/temperature. This stove cycles off and on regularly during cooking so I don't think it will work very well for pressure cooker.

If you are talking pressure cooker, I would not. Although it is very sturdy, pressure cookers are temperamental, so to speak. It can be used with a steamer very well . Hope this helps.

ALL pressure cookers can be dangerous. Read all instructions carefully and follow them...it will then be "safe".

Ha! Yeah, that disk is a piece of crap. The whole reason people use induction cookers is because they are almost 100% efficient with ferritic steel pots, but if you have to use the disk you are loosing a ton of efficiency. My suggestion would be to buy a pressure cooker that is induction compatible, one where you can stick a magnet on it.

Yes,..If the pressure cooker is Oval and holds 6qts. Or more. It's thick material and easy to clean when soaked.

If the stove uses radiant heat the answer is yes. If it's inductive, then no. Only steel/cast iron (a magnet sticks to them) based pans will work with inductive cooktops.

I did some research to this question,(as I am not familiar with induction cook stoves).What I read is that Kuhn Rikoncan be used on any type of stove,as it is stainless steel and the bottom has an aluminum core,sandwiched between stainless steel.Hope this helps your decision,this pressure cooker is truly the Rolls Royce of cookers! great product!

Yes preferably a metal coil stovetop that is close to or the same size as the base of the cooker. anything will work as long as there is constant heat during the entire phase of pressure cooking

I doubt it. I could not even get ahold of the company regarding my warranty (it quit after three months use) using the number on the warranty card. If you have not purchased this yet, I would seriously encourage you to get a different model. I purchased the Elite pressure cooker from HSN. I have had it for over a year with no problems and love it. Hope this helps you.

Definitely. I have an induction cooktop and that's why I bought the circulon set. Works perfectly!

I did not use a pressure cooker, but I think it would be OK for a small to medium pressure cooker, let's say 3-5 quarts. It is quite powerful.

It is very much usable on induction. I use my WMF pressure cookers on my induction units and they perform perfectly. Stash a small magnet in your coin purse and use it to test cookware before buying.

NO, I just called Orgreenic, Telebrands, because I have an induction cooktop and they said it is not for use with induction cooking.

Yes, it says in the instructions that it's suitable for induction heaters. I have been very pleased with mine. A very well made pressure cooker.
