FANTASTIC! not as deep as I thought, but perfect, non-stick surface. Love to cook eggs, bacon, sandwiches, rice--anything in. Great deal! Bought my brother a set too & he loves his

Yes. It has a layer of stainless steel on the bottom of the pans. Not magnetic grade, which is best for induction burners, but is enough to compliment the aluminum body, which retains heat quite evenly. I think for $20, it's a good deal. That being said, you get what you pay for. Even if you end up not liking it as much in the long run, it works well on other cooktops, someone would appreciate the gift. **(if you're ever at a shop browsing for pans, bring a small fridge magnet with you and test the bottom of the pans to see if it sticks. if it does, chances are, it's a high quality metal for induction compatibilty.)

I don't think they are 'induction' rated. Like I said before, these pans are pretty cheap. To answer your second question, a magnet WILL stick to the bottom.

Unfortunately, they do not. These pans are made of heavy-weight aluminum. Induction stoves require steel pans.

I wish I knew the answer to that one, but I'm not really sure. I suggest checking with the manufacturer. I can see no reason why they would not work, but I have never used an induction cooktop, so you'd be better off checking with WearEver. I really hope that they do work, because having used these for a bit longer now, I would love to go back and give them even more stars. They really hold up well and are just the best cookware I have ever used. Good luck with your search.

Yes, and yes. These are very nice pans and a pleasure to use with an induction range.

I believe these DO NOT work with induction. Induction cooktops use a magnetic field to heat the metal in the pans. Since these are made of aluminum they won't be affected by the magnetic field.

Yes they do work with induction cooktops. That's where we us ours and they work very well.

I do not think so. Usually if pans are able to be used for induction it will say so in the specs. or product description.

It's cast iron, so if cast iron can be used on induction, you will be fine.

Yes, all of the pressure cookers that we carry are induction ready. This WMF pressure cooker is for use on induction. Karen /Eurostoves

They will work fine- but they do warn about using them at a high temperature for an extended period of time as the constant heat and pressure of the induction stove top can cause the pot and stove to fuse together, and that is no bueno. If you want to cook something at a high temp for hours, don't use these pots- but other than that you're good to go.

Yes stainless. Manufacturers now mark the bottom of the cookware with an icon to indicate that it is induction ready. Any pot or pan that will hold a magnet on the bottom is suitable. Some stainles steel is ferrous (magnetic) and some is not.

No. For induction you need the French Classic series (same manufacturer). Unfortunately, they are more expensive.

I have no knowledge or experience regarding induction cooking ... sorry I cannot answer your question.

No they are not, the base of the pans from the set are thicker, this just have a thinner coating. I havent gotten my induction cooktop yet, so cant tell if they work

Carol these are induction. I know because I tried to use my regular pots on my nuwave Pics and they would not work. But I received my Duxtop cookware they worked.
