I have a Frigidaire electric hybrid cooktop will this pan work on this stove top? I am asking about the swiss diamond induction nonstick fry pan.

Yes - the Swiss Diamond Induction pans are made for Induction cooktops and units. And the pans are fantastic - so uniform in their cooking characteristics AND so easy to clean. Some of the Swiss Diamond pans are NOT induction models and they will not be recognized as induction units.

It will work. Pretty sure induction is the only one that needs magnetic cookware. You wouldn't be disappointed with swiss diamond. I love this cookware

I think so I just have a regular gas stove and a friend of mine has the smooth top electric cooktop and this pan works on both very well. The gas I do have to cook a little lower heat but love this pan!!!

Yes, I have a Samsung Induction Cooktop and this pan works very well. The heat conduction is perfect!! Hope this helps :)

On Feb 1, 2014, I received this skillet from Amazon. It is definitely NOT compatible with my induction cooktop. The pan bottom is not attracted to a magnet, a requirement for it to work with any induction cooktop. I think something must have changed in the manufacture of this item since the earlier answers to this question. Induction buyers beware!

do you mean an induction cooktop?? I don't really know. It is a hard anodized aluminum, yes, so if aluminum doesn't work on that heat source then no, it won't. It's a very nice griddle pan though.

The question is poor. There's nothing about a glass cooktop that makes a pan work or not; it has only to do with the heating mechanism, which might be coils or it might be induction. That's the important information to supply.

I'm sorry but I have a gas cooktop. However, I don't know why it wouldn't work on your induction cooktop. I love the size and quality of this pan. It does tell you not to use Pam or any non-stick spray which surprised me.

On the Hamilton Beach website it states "Premium die-cast aluminum cookware heats evenly and cooks directly on gas, electric or ceramic stovetops". The aluminum cookware they are referring to is the insert. So unfortunately, it will NOT work on an induction cook top.

I don't have an induction cooktop but I looked it up for you. Yes, you can use this pot with an induction stovetop. The pot material is actually anodized steel.

Not sure and don't have any experience with induction cooktops but I would call Cusinart's toll-free number and ask one of their customer service reps. They should know if the bottom of this pan has the right kind(s) of metal to react and create heat on the cooking surface.

This is a valid question for someone looking to buy cookware for an induction burner. PLEASE do not answer this question unless you really know what you're talking about!!! Some people don't know what an induction burner is and think anything that isn't electric coil or gas is an induction. It is NOT. The very easiest way to to tell if a pan will work is to see if a magnet will stick to the bottom. If it does, it will work with induction burners.

Sandee, I think you're asking if this griddle is compatible with an induction cooktop. The answer is no. The griddle is solid (anodized) aluminum with a hard non-stick coating applied to the cooking surface. Thus this griddle is non-magnetic and it will not work with an induction heating element. My guess is that most of these non-stick griddles will either be aluminum or clad aluminum, as for example, the All-Clad product line. So if you have an induction cooktop you may need to go old school and look for an iron griddle which likely will be absent any high tech non-stick coating. Although, as you may well know, iron if cured properly builds something of a natural non-stick surface. Cheers!

I have not tried it on induction cook top. Sorry to say. So far have used it on glass top stove only. Perhaps the mfg might be able to give you an answer. Enjoy your Spring and Summer.

I googled Culinary arts on about.com, induction cooking. It said the pan would only work if it was Steel or cast iron and that to check a pan, see if a magnet sticks to it. If it does, it's steel or cast iron and will work. I stuck a magnet to this pan and it didn't hold. I think I read in another comment that this pan is aluminum. So my guess is it wouldn't work. The induction cooking article on about.com is very helpful. Maybe they would know a good Eco pan for the stove.

I know it works on my regular stove top. I assume the induction stove top is like the flat glass top. It should work even though it will not set directly on the burner. It does have a flat side and grill side. There is a slight rigged edge around the edges on both sides to retain the grease from running off. On to the stove top. It does work great.

I need that information about being used for induction cooktops. In store shopping, I have to use a magnet to see if the magnet sticks to bottom. Cast iron works, the Cuisinart ten-pc. step (Amazon.com) stated in write up that it was for induction cooktops. I don't want to order items from Amazon.com and find out after the fact that they aren't for induction cooktops. I am looking for a tea pot for my cooktop now. Just would be extremely helpful if advertisers would say in their write-ups it the product is for induction cooktop. My house burned down this past summer and we are rebuilding and I am getting the induction cooktop and double ovens, one of which is convection. So, I will be learning how to cook with them, and with the added problem of what pans work on them is a challenge. Thanks, Suzanne Martin, Amazon.com customer

The T-Fal skillets I bought thru Amazon will not work with the induction cooktop. Their website said to use a magnet to test the bottom of the skillet. If the magnet won't stick tightly the cookware is not likely to work well with induction cooking.
