can it be used on induction cook top?

Theoretically speaking, not really, since it's cast aluminum, which is not magnetic. The magnetic field generated by the induction cooker will travel too far in aluminum and also result in very little resistance, which is needed to generate heat. However, I have never tried it on an induction stove. If there's a thin layer of iron or steel imbedded in the pot, then it will work well, otherwise you'll be wasting your electricity.

Yes, I was able to use it on induction cook top. The pan did not last me more than around 8 usage though because it started sticking even when there were no scratches on the surface at all. I ended up returning mine.

I am not sure about "induction cooktop" but I use it on an electric range and it is superb!

I actually had this same question. I contacted the company directly and was told that since the cookware is painted it would not work on induction cook tops. They do have other products that would work.

I have only used it on a gas grill. It has a non-stick finish on it , i don't if that would be affected by an induction cooktop.

I have never used it on an induction range but I don't see why not. One of the many great features of this pan is that it cooks /spreads the heat evenly during cooking which I think would occur as well or better with an induction range.

I purchased it as a gift, so I don't know. But you can test it by putting a magnet on the bottom of the teapot. If it sticks, it should work on an induction cooktop.

I'm not too sure. I'm assuming if it can be used on a regular stovetop why not an induction top. My husband said to check with your stove manual or contact the manufacture or dealer. That is probably the best way to find out. I'm sorry if I wasn't much help.

Sorry, I have never had an induction cooktop and cannot answer your question.

I use mine on a glass top electric cook top. Not sure how a induction cooktop works. Try calling the cooktop manufacturer or read the operation manual that came with it for reference.

Yes, you can use it on an electric (coil) cooktop-I do, and it works fine on the large coil. It doesn't work on my induction cooktop because there is not enough contact with the surface.

I am not sure about an induction cooktop but we have a ceramic glass cooktop and it works on it but the burn is a little large for the size of the pot so we have to be careful not to let the handle get too hot.

I don't believe it will, its not the right material for an induction stove top. I tried it on my portable induction single pan burner and it wouldn't even work I am not sure if they are the same but I am assuming they are. Hope this helps.

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

I don't think so, but not sure, as I don't have induction stove top. That's way I didn't buy induction stove top because only certain pans work on it. Sorry I couldn't be of help.

I personally have not used it on induction stove tops. It seems that it gets mixed results with induction applications. I would suggest returning it to amazon for a refund as that is more practical than changing your stovetop.
