good for induction cooking?

No. Nothing is good for induction cooking except steel or iron with a thick base that has enough iron that a magnet has strong attraction.If you can get past the word "good" and ask a more sensible question like "Can I cook with these on an induction burner" then the answer changes to "Yes you can but it will take longer to heat up".

No it is not. The pan is all aluminum and so will not work for induction cooking.

No. It is aluminum and therefore non-magnetic. Induction cooking requires iron/steel vessels.

Though I have not attempted to use this on an induction range, there is no reason that it should work. Induction cooking relies on the pan/pot being made of a ferrous (containing iron) material. The Calphalon UNISON line is made of aluminum, which is not a ferrous metal. Cast iron, stainless steel, etc. will be your best bets. There are special "induction discs" that you can use if you need to use something non-ferrous, but they are essentially just acting as heating elements and not giving you any of the benefits of inductive cooking.

The induction cooking system will heat the middle of the pot and radiate to the rest of the pot, really not the best way to use this system, Gas is a better answer if able.

I do not have an induction stove top. But, according to what I read about induction, if a magnet clings quite well to the bottom of the pot, itshould be safe to use for induction. You are totally on your own.

I'm not very familiar with induction cooktops, however I think they need a high iron content. I would contact the company to be sure.

I found the open stock pans from this set at Ross. The tag specifically says they work for induction cooking.

Yes, that's why I bought them. I am really happy with them. I cook with induction most of the time. I am sure you will like this set; I do. Kevin

Hello, I do not think that this product is suitable for induction heat. What little that I can ascertain is what I found in Wikipedia regarding induction cooking. See below "Induction cooking" In induction cooking, an induction coil in the cook-top heats the iron base of cookware. Copper-bottomed pans, aluminium pans and other non-ferrous pans are generally unsuitable. The heat induced in the base is transferred to the food via (metal surface) conduction. Benefits of induction cookers include efficiency, safety (the induction cook-top is not heated itself) and speed. Both permanently installed and portable induction cookers are available. I can not see the aluminum bottom on the pans because it is encased in the dark enamel coloring, I would suggest asking the company that makes this product as wearever.com Hope this gives you the information that you need.

Hmmm-- I don't know if it can be used on an induction cooker, whatever that is. The bottom is not magnetic though. I bought it because it was non teflon. I had to bite the bullet because of the price, but am glad I did. It is sturdy enough and I use it all the time, but only for poached eggs. I found it disappointing that there were so few similar offerings in stainless steel.

I do not have an induction cook top. This was a gift for our son in law. He has a gas stove top and absolutely Loves the pot.

Yes, induction heating is great! Like anything else new, it is looked at suspiciously, but let the future happen with excitement!

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.

I think it would work fine, not really sure what a induction stove is, I have electric convection stove, & also used on my wood stove when power was out, works great for me
