Do these pots/pans work better on a gas stove or electric stove?

I have used them on both (electric in my old house and gas in my current house). They cook evenly on both! I really like them a lot.

Works great. I use my cookware with an electric stove and no issues at all.

Yes! I prefer gas as it's easier to control temp. With electric I use 2 burners, one to bring to temperature and one set on med-low for timing. Electric does not respond as quickly as gas for heat control. Hope this helps, I love my Fagor and use it quite a bit.

Either one works fine for me! I have an electric stove now, and it's not a problem.

I am using them on a gas stove but I don't see why you couldn't use them on an electric stove, they are high quality glassware and i thoroughly enjoy them as I do not like cooking with stainless and much prefer glass cookware. Hope this helps.

gas, electric / makes no difference. Its just a stovetop cooker that needs to boil.

I've had no problems; however, I have a glass top electric stove and the elements are quite large. A friend who has a regular sized gas stove found that she had to keep her eye on meats and do a lot of moving around to get even browning. In the long run, she felt it was worth the extra effort to use only one pot.

Yes, it will work, we use it flat electric, but there is no reason it would not work on a gas stove. It is a cast iron griddle, nice, heavy weight. Just care for it like any other cast iron, season it, don't immerse it in water, keep it oiled and it'll last forever.

Yes! This cookware can be used on gas and electric stoves safely and only requires low heat settings.

I am using the ones I have on a gas stove, however I am positive that these will work fine on an induction cooktop. As long as the base of the pot is headed evenly the quality of the eats will depend solely on the cook. Hope this helps :)

I liked it better on a gas stove but you can use on electric or gas. I'm stuck with electric. :-)

Just an edit to previous reply. I have a glass top flat surface stove. I'm sure results would be different if using electric burners.

The main enemy of this type of cookware is high heat. Since gas flame is cooler than an electric element, you should be OK.

I'm not sure what type of cooktop you are referring to but I don't see why they couldn't be used on any stove. I have a glass electric cooktop and they work fine on it and clean up beautifully. We've been very happy with the two Anolon advanced anodized skillets that we have.

This answer is late, but may help. I have both electric (glass) and gas. Works on either, and on induction too. But, on electric you may find it works better if you get it up to pressure on one burner, then transfer it carefully to a second burner set to lower to maintain pressure. Otherwise it may take awhile for the first burner to cool down and it overcooks the food. But you have to experiment to find out. Do not let this stop you from getting a pressure cooker. They are fantastic and the food actually tastes better because the flavor and nutrients are locked in.

I use it on high all the time. I do have a gas stove though, so I have no idea if it is a problem with an electric stove.

I have not had any problem with these pans and I've been using them for several months. They are probably not the best pans for ultra-high heat gas flame cooking, but are perfectly fine for electric cooktops. They clean up beautifully. I really could not be more pleased with this set. It's a great price for very good quality.
