Is this pot magnetic, so it could be used on an induction surface?

Its not magnetic but i am almost positive it can work on an induction surface

I don't know why it wouldn't work on an induction stove- it is just another way of heating, right? So I would think that if you can boil water in a pot on the stove, you could use this coffee pot...I just ran downstairs to our camping gear with a few fridge magnets and they stuck nicely to the pot. Good luck! -Margaret

I don't believe you can as Induction cooking requires pots with a layer of magnetic properties. I believe it has to be stainless steel or cast iron. There must not be any aluminum in them. Watch that your stainless steel pots and pans do not have aluminum in them.

yes, you can use it on a glass surface . but i don't know if you could use it on induction . the description should tell you that

I can't give a definitive answer, but my guess is no. This is from Wikipedia:"Stainless steel pans will work on an induction cooking surface if the base of the pan is a magnetic grade of stainless steel. If a magnet sticks well to the sole of the pan, it will work on an induction cooking surface." &"Aluminum or copper alone does not work on an induction stove because of the materials' magnetic and electrical properties"

Other commenter is correct. I tested with a magnet also and it did not stick, therefore this pot will not work with induction.

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

Yes, you can test any pot with a magnet. If the magnet sticks it will work on an induction cook top.

This pan is made of mild steel and is therefore magnetic. However, it has a rounded bottom, and I don't know how well that would work with an induction unit. Perhaps someone else has tried it?

I have a conventional smoothtop stove, not induction. The pan is non-magnetic.

I guess the question is if it could be used with induction cooking systems; if that is the case, then the answer will yes! Ever since, it is metal. But to be sure have to check with a magnet the iron content. Will get back to you soon since out on vacation.

Well, they say that if a magnet will stick to it, then it is okay for an induction stovetop. I tried it and it doesn't stick, so I would assume that it isn't. Too bad, because I LOVE this pot. I am glad I just have a regular stovetop...I would hate to cook without it.

It absolutely can be used on an induction burner. I've used mine on a cook-top with induction burners countless times. Also, a magnet will stick to the bottom of the pot. I hope this helps.

I have not yet tested this...however, the pot is stainless steel which should work on a induction surface. As long as the steel is of magnetic grade. I can go and see later if a magnet will stick to the pot's bottom. If it doesn't work though, you can also purchase a interface disk which enables non-induction cookware to be used on induction cooking surfaces. My guess however, is that it would work.

I don't believe so. The pot is aluminum which doesn't work with induction heating. Induction cook tops need a ferrous metal like stainless steel.

If I understand how induction stoves work, then no. The pot is not magnetic (some stainless steels are not), and your stove would not be able to induce heat in said pot. Sorry for the delay

I just checked and magnets do NOT stick to this pot. Unfortunately I don't have an induction stove to check if it works. But, as others have noted, it is designed to pour water into it anyway.EDIT: Some of the comments made me look it up. Stainless steel can be magnetic or non-magnetic; it depends on the exact composition of the steel.
