Why can't I use my 12 qt Granite Ware stockpot on my flat top stove? I like the stockpot and don't want to return it.

The elements inside the pot will melt and the bottom of the pot will fused itself to the glassware eye of the stove

Sorry, I have an old stove. Not able to answer whether you can use it or not.

Absolutely ! It is usually a 6-8 qt La Creuset or Staub enameled cast iron pot that I am using. No problem at all !

I don't think All Clad makes one specifically for this stockpot, but they do make some "universal" steamer inserts that should fit well (although they may not reach the pot's full depth). I thought about this before I bought it, decided to purchase anyway. No regrets. Would be nice to have, though.

I purchased a 14" skillet from Cuisinart through Amazon. My pan, when heated on my glass top FLAT stove, gets concave (which means a bump on the bottom). Hence it rocks back and forth and doesn't make total contact with the heat source. Dealing with a return through Cuisinart has been a bit of a nightmare. They want to look at it and evaluate it and I have to pay shipping one way. My 30 day return window with Amazon had lapsed when I started noticing this. It's a huge pan and I didn't use it that often. This pan returns to a flat state when it cools!!!

I use it with a 6 qt pot, but remember that it has to be tall and not exceed the cook plate.

Since I don't have a Dutch Oven (cast iron? ) with legs, I'm afraid I can't help you. Would imagine it would depend on size of pot and where legs are positioned in reference to stoves handles. Might be unstable due to weigh and configuration. I prefer a flat bottom pot. Sorry I can't be of more help.

No, I ordered this guy along with a 20 qt stockpot: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0083876R6/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc;=1

I've used my Graniteware canner many times on my glass top stove with no problems. You should not drag it across the glass which may be tempting to do. I've never seen this warning before for Graniteware hot water bath canners. I've seen this warning for for pressure canners though as I have an All American Pressure Canner that warns not to use on glass top stoves as it may be too heavy and crack it. I've never used my pressure canner on the glass top stove for this reason.

Did you not get a 6 qt. pot with the pressure cooker? Mine does not happen to be stainless steel...it has a sort of Teflon coating, but better! Therefore, I cannot answer your question. Perhaps you might try to contact the company and ask! Hope this helps!

I looked up double burner cook top online, and the way it looks to me, as long as it is a flat surface, it should be fine. That's just my opinion. It is up to you to try it. If it doesn't work, then send it back.

This did not work on my induction range..problem is that there is a ridge around the one side, therefore it doesn't sit flat on the cooktop. I am still looking for a similar piece that would work...

I have some of my Farberware pots for over 50yrs. I still use them and the only time food burns is when I have the heating setting too high and I forget the pot on the stove! If you may do the same, in cleaning the pot,pour some white vinager and let it stand and the pot will look like new!! Just purchased a 3qt pot and love it!! Jeanne

I'm not sure about that, Irina. I do know it was a defective pan and once on the heat source it would become concave which means it couldn't make full contact with my glass top stove. I didn't notice it for awhile (past the 30 day return policy) so tried to deal directly with Cuisinart. They outsource their customer service (you get someone in a foreign country) and it was a total nightmare dealing with them. I gave up. I will neverorder anything from Cuisinart again. I'm sorry I can't address your actual question but if it doesn't give you those specifics in the description, I wouldn't purchase it. I'm not sure about that, Irina.

I don't know. I don't know why it would be a problem. The dutch oven is heavy, but I think as long as you are careful, it doesn't matter that the cook top is glass. Maybe there is something about glass stove tops in the literature that comes with the product, or maybe with the glass top stove.

I don't know - I have the Whirlpool stove it fits in. If you order and it doesn't I'm sure you could return it.

I have no idea. When I called T-Fal about replacing it, they sent me to SmallAppliance.com. Their customer service is horrible, unlike T-Fal who only wanted to help. The website didn't say they were backordered, so after waiting a month, I called and found out the truth. I canceled my order immediately as they said it would be months before more came in. The pots they had were $29.95 as well. If you have a link to the pot you are referring to, post it please. I'd like to have a look. Wish I could be of more help.
