Can you use this wok on a ceramic stove?

I don't see why not. It has a flat base so it should sit just fine, however rocking the wok back and forth my scratch you flat top.

I don't think so. Its glass. Would you use glass on ceramic cook top? I only use to fill with boiling water.

No. I would never use any vessel made of ceramic, porcelain, pottery or any other suchlike material on the stovetop. Boil your water in a teakettle, then pour it into the teapot for serving. Better to be safe than sorry!

Yes it can. We have a flat top glass stove and it works just fine. The bottom is flat, not rounded as other woks are.

I don't have a gas stove, but I don't see why not. Other than the ceramic non stick, it's a regular pan.

Yes, you can. It's Carbon Steel; but I don't think you are going to get the heat intended for this wok. This is a great heavy gauge wok; if anything is going to give you good results, this one will. The Wok Shop is great, email them with any other questions, they provide great support.

I can't say for sure, but would imagine it would work as well as any other cookware would, the bottom is flat so there will b contact w cooking surface. I use mine on gas stove & it works so marvelously, finally hv a wok that makes stir-frying for a fam of 6 easy! Follow seasoning directions that come w wok prior to use, You'll luv it!

I wouldn't because of the electrical element, but the wok is very easy to handwash. You can fill the wok with water to soak, if need be, but you don't want water near the element which is near the legs.

Yes, the wok performs excellent on electric stove tops. I prop wok on base for low to medium heat. I do not do so for very high heat. And..I always store the wok clean and the interior coated very lightly with oil.

I would say it would not be a good choice for a ceramic cooktop; I would probably have to recommend a flat bottom Wok.

I can't say definitively, but I've used mine on a regular electric stove and it's been completely fine. I don't believe there are any issues of iron on ceramic but it may be worth a google.

Ah this answer was important to me. I wanted to use it on my Lodge wok but I need it while cooking. Thanks

can this wok be used on an induction stove? I saw one with a round wooden handle and the details said itcould be used on an induction stove but can this one be used?

We have the wok. It has a smooth bottom and would be fine on a glass top stove.

The short answer is that it cannot be used on a ceramic/induction stovetop. Pans used on induction cooktops must be made of material that attracts magnets. This is because induction works through electromagnetism, so the pan must attract magnetic charges. I checked this teakettle with a magnet and it does not attracdt magnetic charges. You might also want to call the manufacturer about this....

I don't see why it can't be. I've used it on my gas stove top just fine. It's all stainless on the exterior so that it can go into the oven from the stove top. The only thing that might make it not work with a ceramic stove top is that the quality of the pan makes it not as flat on the bottom as it could be. The heat transfer might be lost if the pan isn't flat enough to contact the ceramic. It's a very cheap set of pans.

You can if you want to put that much oil in it. Personally, I would be hesitant. A wok doesn't have a very large base of support and can tip easily. I wouldn't want one full of hot oil on my stove. I would deep fry in a dutch oven and then transfer to the wok for finishing.
