does this pressure cooker perform well on a glass top stove?

I have a glass top and use the Fagor duos on it all the time. Works great. I would suggest that you read your warranty as some wont allow it. In fact I am thinking of doing a pork shoulder roast in mine today. Dinner is ready in just over an hour and soo sooo tender

I have a glass-top stove, it came with the house, I did not choose it. Considerations include, lifting the steamer, not dragging it, realizing that when it hits the appropriate pressure and you turn the heat down, it takes a little time for the the burner temp to adjust. At the end, I lift the pot and move it from the hot burner. Also, I am gentle sitting it on the stove. I use mine all the time to cook beans, so just leaving it on the hot burner can continue the cooking rather than begin the cooling process.

I have no experience of cooking on a glass top stove (I assume inducton heating) but it should perform no differently than any other metal cooking vessel.

I have a glass flattop stove and have used my pan/pot on it without any problems.

We don't have the answer to that question. Suggest you check with the manufacturer. Have never used on a glass top stove. Good Luck.

Yes. I use all my cast iron pots/skillets on my glass top. You just have to use care not to set it down too hard. That's the case with these glass top cookers anyway.

I just got one for Christmas and it works great on my glass cooktop, just preheat the cooktop before starting.

I'm not sure why the instructions say not to use on a glass top, but I have used it many times on my glass top with no problems. Probably if you used it for more time than the 25-30 minutes most things call for, it may get too hot, but I have using it for years (this is my third one) without damage to either the cooker or the stove top.

I have a glass top stove. I use this pan all the time, and it does quite well on my stove top. It conducts hear well and cook evenly.

I did not use a pressure cooker, but I think it would be OK for a small to medium pressure cooker, let's say 3-5 quarts. It is quite powerful.

Yes! It's wonderful! Be sure to first preheat it on HIGH for a while otherwise you won't get a good sear on meat. I think today's glass cooktops are made with "gorilla glass" so they can withstand just about anything.

I just used mine on my glass top cooktop over the holiday weekend. It worked fine.

I've used mine for several batches on a glass top, which I felt were successes. Just don't slide it around and keep a close eye on the temperature (once it gets hot it's too hot and needs turned down). I suspect the temperature thing is with the cast iron, though, and not the cooktop.

I use it on a glass top electric stove, and it works great. I love this pot, and even feel that food tastes better out of it!

Works great. We've used it on our glass top electric stove with no problems.

I bought the pan to use on my glass top range. It's perfect! The pan has a nice flat bottom so it connects well with the stove surface. I have followed the instructions for bringing the pan up to temp over a medium heat and haven't had any problem with the pan warping. I have owned the pan for several months now and haven't had any problems with the surface either.I'd buy another one of these!
