Can you use this on a glass cooktop?

Yes. As with any heavy item of cookware, you need to take a little care not to drag it across the surface, but ceramic glass is tougher than the word "glass" suggests. Also, if it is an induction cooktop, you can even put a piece of parchment paper (sold at all supermarkets) under the cooking vessel as an extra protection against scratching.

Yes, just don't drag it across the top. You have to lift it to move it so it doesn't scratch the cooktop.

I've never tríed using it on a stove top but wouldn't recommend it. The glass is fragile.

I have been using mine on a smooth glass cooktop without any problems. Works great!

I would imagine so, but I don't have a glass cook top. My stove is circa 1950's original with electric coil burners. I've had the counter glass over it while it was cooling and it hadn't been damaged--I also waited until the stove burner was just 'warm' before using it as counter space. You may want to contact the seller or manufacturer to see how high of a temperature the tempered glass can handle.

I doubt it. Glass stove tops tend to scratch, and this product is made of cast iron. I don't own a glass top stove; I use it for a gas stove. Better ask the manufacturer!

You can use it on a glass top stove, but you would have to be very careful not to scratch the glass surface. The pot is heavy by itself and filled with a stew becomes heavier.

I would not suggest using it on a glass top stove since the pot is used for cannning and the water inside must be boiling hot for a set period of time. The pot and the glass jars (filled with fruits, veggies, etc.) would be extremely heavy and very hot and would put far too much pressure on the stove top possibly even cracking the glass top.

Yes, I use mine on a glass top stove. You just have to be careful about the weight of the canner, so it doesn't crack the glass. Set it down gently, don't drop it or move it roughly.

I believe the canner would be fine for use on glass cooktop. I used a pressure canner and water bath canner for years with no issues when I owned a glass top stove prior to buying a gas stove.

I'm pretty sure it can. As long as you are using gas burners, then I don't see why you can't use it on your glass stove.

Yes, you can use this item on a glass top surface which was designed to be a part of a cook stove.

It would work just fine with a glass cooktop. I love mine. I use mine with mostly a gas range but I believe it would work fine on glass top as well.

I used it on the glass top with no problem. I did not put it to high heat though. I loved using it with salmon and chicken so it doesn't need to be at the high side of hot to work well.

I would not use it on a glass cooktop. Cast iron gets very hot, and excessive heat can damage your cooktop. Also, the pot is very heavy and it will could scratch it if you drag the pot on it. It can be used in the oven. But, to be completely sure, I suggest doing an internet search on this subject. You will find all the correct information to make an informed decision.

Yes, I use mine on my induction glass cooktop, and it works beautifully. Do regulate the temperature carefully, as you don't want a big heavy pan rocking on a glass top. And as Whitney also mentioned, be careful transferring the heavy, filled pot, so you don't break your glass.

Yes, it can be used on a glass electric cooktop. Thank you for your interest.

Yes, you can use it on a glass top stove. The bottom is no more abrasive than other cookware and will make good contact with the stove surface. Just set it down gently.
