Would this pan stay flat and still on a ceramic or glass stovetop? Thank you much!

I can't see were there would be any problem with is sitting flat on a flat surface. I've only used mine for roasting and am very careful not to introduce cold water into a hot pan to avoid having the pan warp. If you follow the Mfg. instructions on maximum temps and cleaning you should not have a problem. It's a well made pan, cooks evenly and cleans up easily with warm soapy water.

Yes it is flat. I don't have a ceramic cooktop but it would work. I can send a picture of the bottom if you need to see it.

It is not a flat solid all the way across. The pan is cast iron and holds heat very well. I use it on a ceramic top & I've had great success.

Yes, the bottom is flat. I have used in on my ceramic stove top over a year now with no problems.

Yes. I use it all of the time on my glass stovetop. Just be careful to keep the pan in one place so that the top will not be scratched by moving the pan around. I love this skillet and top.

My pan has stayed flat. Less expensive pans will do this when over heated. Not a good idea on any pan.

This pot was bought as a gift for my daughter who does not have a glass ceramic stove top. The pot came wrapped in plastic so I did not check out the bottom of it. I have a ceramic stove top and the pans that I have that have grooves in them have not scratched my cooktop. Don't know if my answer will be of any help to you.

I also have a glass cooktop and this set is great. Yes, the cookware is flat on the bottom and the heat is evenly distributed. Clean up is great as well. I have other cookware, but, I use this most often. Hope this answers your question about making this purchase. I highly recommend it.

The bottom is not totally flat. It has a flat inner circle, then an indented section, and then the edge. I don't know why it wouldn't work on a ceramic stove. I say, "give it a try, you can always return it if it's not right."

i don't have a ceramic/glass top stove, but this is the best answer i've found. There are some differing opinions on this discussion but one of the common themes to be a suggestion to use a diffuser, or flame-tamer underneath a pan so it doesn't scratch the surface. Also, don't slide the pan around - lift it up and move it.

Yes the bottom base is flat - I used it on my glass top - One thing to keep in mind is not to slide the pot on the hot burner it will leave marks on the glass top - It is easy to remove with a good glass cook-top cleaner so don't worry it it does

I have an electric stove ceramic flat top and it works great. I absolutely love this pan.

I've been using it on a glass stove top without any issues. Le Creuset does state in the manual that they recommend picking up the pan rather than sliding it across the cooktop to prevent any damage, but it's been fine on mine so far.

Mine is completely flat. Wouldn't have one that wasn't. I do wish that I had bought the pan glass lid.

Yes it has a flat bottom......check with Lodge if it is safe on a ceramic cooktop.

Absolutely I have a ceramic top and the Cuisinart griddle I had would not lay flat on the ceramic top. I gave the Cuisinart griddle to my son who has a gas stove and he is happy with it. Do not hesitate to buy the Emeril griddle.

It is flat, but you may need to bend the handle upwards a bit. I have a glasstop and I use this, but DO NOT put a heavy pot on it and try to move it or you definitely will scratch the glass.
