Induction cooktop? Will this smoker (or any others) work on an induction cooktop?

The DVD which comes with the smoker states that this will work on an induction cooktop.

Hello Vickie, Thank you for your inquiry. No that will not work on an induction stovetop. Kind regards, Audrey Consumer Relations

This item is made mostly of aluminum, including all of the exterior. Therefore, it will not work on an induction cooktop even though it has a thin stainless steel interior. Also, the bottom is actually raised above the burner surface, and thus this item will also not work with a convention smooth cooktop. It's really best suited to a gas cooktop.

I have this griddle, but no, I've never seen it used on an induction cooktop. All I can say is it works perfectly on my traditional electric stove with coils. Grilled cheese comes out perfect every time. Pancakes work out equally as well. I can say the same for french toast. I love this griddle because there is no nonstick coating to come off and be in your food.

Sorry to contradict some of the other answers but... yes... you can use it on an induction cooktop... but with these caveats: This is an aluminum cooker so you would have to put a steel or iron "cooking plate" under it, the induction coil heats up the steel/iron plate which then heats up the pressure cooker, we do this with a couple of nice aluminum pans that we like to use but don't work with induction. AND... be aware that this is one heavy mother of a cooker so you might need to test your induction cooktop to see if it will handle the weight...

Should not be an issue. As long as the heat is coming from the bottom of the smoker, it should work great.

The original version had a thick aluminum bottom, and would not work on an induction cooktop. However, the newer model sandwiches the aluminum within the stainless steel shell of the pan, and thus should work great on an induction cooktop.

Hi - I don't have an induction cooktop, so I can't be certain. However, I did read once that if a magnet sticks to your pan, that it will work on an induction cooktop. So, I just tried it and a magnet did stick to the one I have. As I said in my review, I can't honestly recommend this item, but maybe it will work better for you. I hope that helps!

Mine works great on my induction stove top. I love it! Just make sure that the burner is not more than 1" larger in diameter or 1" smaller in diameter of the pot. They say that can cause the stove top to crack, although I've never had any problems. I think I've probably got 3/4" of the burner showing surrounding this cooker.

I don't have an induction cooktop, Works great on my gas range . I am sure it would work very well on any cooking surface..I like it very much, glad to have it..

I have an induction cooktop, and it works. As one of the previous reviewer stated, if a magnet will stick to it, it's induction compatible. I have noticed that it takes longer to heat than my cast iron does on the same setting.

That is actually the reason that I purchased this particular hotplate. Unfortunately, I have not had the free time to actually construct and test it in a smoker. From what I can tell it would work fine.

I love the smoker, but I have never used it for smoking. I bought it as a short steaming pan. I purchased two others as gifts. I use it as my go-to pan for steaming, sautéing, frying etc. I have an induction range, but it should work well stove with coils also.

Sadly this pot is not compatible with an induction cooktop. This information should've been included, in the product description, by amazon. I found the answer by going to the Cuisinart website. Hope this helps.

I don't know. I don't have an induction cooktop so I've never tried to use it on one.

Please note that this is an anodized aluminum griller. I don't see any reason why it won't work on a glass top stove. It won't work on an induction stove because the underneath is not stainless steel.

I use mine on an electric stove, and even though it isn't completely flat on the bottom it still works perfectly well. I don't know if the bottom of the smoker has warped slightly since I've used it so much, or if my stove burner is maybe not completely flat, but it doesn't seem to matter. I have no problems with it
