Is this kettle compatible with an electric radiant surface unit range?

Yes, I have an induction stove (which has a glass/ceramic top) and it works great. However, I put the teakettle on empty on high, and the glass-based enamel fused to the stovetop. Removing the teakettle removed a couple of big chunks of the stovetop, permanently damaging it. DON'T USE ANY ENAMEL WARE ON ANY GLASS OR CERAMIC TOPPED STOVE!

I have an electric ceramic top cook surface and I use this every day. Not sure if this is considered radiant?

We have an electric range which is radiant. It works fine!!! The kettle is very much compatible. Frank C.

I have a glass top electric range and found my newest Revere kettle (made in China) is a "bomb". It is made so none of the copper bottom touches the burner surface resulting in a disappointing time to boil water. I had a larger Revere made in Korea that was a gem, but over the years the whistling lid and opening devise failed and were not available for replacing. As a result I junked my Revere kettles and purchased the most attractive and cheapest kettle I could find at B J's, now I boil water in nothing flat, (quickly).

I have an electric stove but my friend ordered the same kettle and she has a gas stove. She never mentioned any problems with the kettle.

Oh, in that case, maybe not. This has a thin outer ring on the bottom that the kettle sits on but the majority is raised maybe 1/2 centimeter above the cooking surface. If your surface is susceptible to scratching, this might not be the best kettle.

If bought in the US, the kettle is designed for 110 volts mains supply. NZ has a 230 volt mains supply and this kettle would not work there (it would take a very, very long time to heat the water).

I'm not sure about using on an electric stove, as min is gas. But this kettle has a MAJOR design flaw. When you raise the lid and try to pour the boiling water from it, the steam escapes backwards is redirected toward your hand, causing steam burns. It is difficult to use and very uncomfortable. I am looking for a replacement.

My gut answer is yes, as long as your Weber kettle is a 22.5 inch size. What I would suggest to be on the safe side is to give Weber a call and ask this question. I have spoken with them before, and they were quite helpful. I hope that this helps you out. Regards, Jim

Yes. The bottom of the kettle is covered with a smooth metal. This is about as little metal I have been able to find in an electric kettle. The alternative is an all glass pot requiting a stove. It is a no frills unit that works great and is not hot to the touch on the outside (double wall...).

The kettle is made exceptionally well so I don't see why not. I think that this would be overkill though. You don't need a temp gauge

We've had no problems on an electric stove at any heat. The bottom of the kettle showed some surface staining after a few weeks, but they cleaned up quickly.

I use mine on an electric range and it works great. This a great tea kettle!

Yes. At no point does the water touch the heating element. The bottom of the water chamber inside of the kettle is over an inch away from the bottom of the actual kettle, and the heating element is sealed there in the space between, in a totally separate chamber.

i have a glass top electric stove and had no problem with the tea kettle. it would have to bemade with tempered glass to be a tea kettle. just don't drop it on the floor like i did!

I use mine only to brew beer outside on a gas burner, My burner is like one that is used on a turkey oil cooker. I don't think it would fit real good on am electric burner on a range top due to it's large size. But since it does have a clad bottom the heat should transfer well anyway. To see how it would fit cut you a string Half the width of the pot. With your burner cool to the touch and off. Hold one end of the string in the center of the burner, Pivot the other end of the string around the burner in a circle motion. This will show you how much the pot will over hang your burner or if it will even fit on your range top. You would want to center the pot on the burner for best results.

I wouldn't do it. The kettle is for heating water only, with various temperature settings for different beverages. And different types of teas. Hope this helps.

Can the range server be placed on a direct gas flame on the stove. I want to boil water in it?

Short answer: Yes.Long answer: Yes, like pretty much any stovetop kettle. It depends on the amount of water and how you're heating it: small amount of water and/or electric stove, probably not; large amount of water and/or gas stove, likely too hot. We found it's usually borderline hot, but we use a gas stove and generally fill it full, so we always assume that it will be too hot too handle and have a potholder handy.
