Can this item be used with induction cook tops like the Nu wave portable?

The answer is NO, this is not magnetic. I got out my trusty magnet to check and it did not adhere at all to the bottom. This is a great pan, but NOT for induction cooktops.

Other commenter is correct. I tested with a magnet also and it did not stick, therefore this pot will not work with induction.

iIf you mean the Nu wave Precision Induction Countertop (PIC) the the answer is yes. I bought my wife the nu wave PIC and then purchased this cookware set to use with it.

I do not know about induction cook tops. I bought it to place on top of our coal stove , there it works great.

Yes, you can use this perfectly anywhere - gas burner, oven, electric burner, etc. Induction cooking is an extra option for a cooktop that requires magnetic materials to conduct heat.

I have an old school lodge skillet in my collection. It is a smaller diameter. I tried boiling water in it with no success. My thinking is, the contact area is too small to transfer the "induction" function of the stove. I have the NuWave table too model. My take a way lesson, maximum contact required for best function of induction stove. Glad you enquired about it. Now I need to try it on my cook top. Its my observation induction requires really flat surface cookware to be effective. Lodge has reengineered their pans to be more responsive to induction stoves. If I get a chance I will test them too.

Yes. Induction works with any magnetic metal. (If a magnet sticks to the bottom of the pot or pan, it will work on induction cook tops.)

Yes, absolutely. I have had it for several months now and it works with my NuWave Portable Induction cooktop with no problem.

Yes, it is designed to be used with an induction cooktop. I just love mine.

hello. I was not sure so I looked on the web on this site and it indicates it is fine for induction cook top. Ours has worked great on electric and propane cook tops. http://www.fagoramerica.com/cookware/pressure_cookers/splendid_line/splendid

Cast iron works well if bottom is absolutely flat. I see a number of cookware advertised to be induction . I purchased the Nuwave cookware. I knew someone who was cooking with it and was thrilled with it. It's the best cookware I have ever had. I didn't purchase other brand cookware peices to try.

I do not have an induction cook-top, but the pot is made of a thin sheet of stainless steel and the base is not that big. I suspect it will not work, but I'm not certain.

I have one. A magnet will not stick to the bottom and therefore it can not be use on an induction cook top.

dear amazonian: i have no idea if this set is compatible with other induction cook tops since the only one i've ever owned is the nu wave pic. magnet does stick strongly to the bottom. there are lids to fit all but the frying pan. the sautee pan top will fit but sinks down in the large fry pan. the lid for the bigger sauce pan also fits the small fry pan. hope this helps.

I do not have an induction cook top, but these are made of steel, so I do not see why not.

If the NuWave unit is induction operated, there is no reason to believe it would not work. Good luck

I have a nu-wave induction cook top. The smallest pan of the set is sometimes hit or miss, but all the others work just fine.
