I have an induction range which has 7,9&amp;11 inch rings.My range can detect only if the base of pots fit exactly to the ring.Any idea on base diameter.

It does not work on induction ranges! I fell in love with this pot during a hotel stay and finally ordered on, thinking since it was stainless steel that it would work on induction ranges. Not so! I guess the aluminum inner core prevents the induction to work. I should have read more reviews! I will now gift this to my daughter and hope to find some similar for myself that works with an induction range. Very disappointing.

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'm repeating this answer everywhere I see reference to questions regarding induction so may get repetitious for some. I have a GE Profile Induction Range and this tea kettle "does" work on an induction range. The bottom of the teapot is almost 9" across. There is a copper disc in the center, 2.5" all the way across, that is slightly recessed (and obviously would not touch the glass of an induction range top). Around that disc is a 2-1/4" across band of stainless (which is the only portion of this teapot bottom that touches the range top). Around that is an outer band, width 1" that is recessed 1/4" (and does not touch the range top). So, you have from center to outer edge, a copper disc (slightly recessed), a stainless band (that touches the range top), and then an outer recessed band (that does not touch the range top). The center disc is measured not from center point but in it's entirety. All combined these 3 components make up the almost 9" of surface on the bottom of the teapot. Rest assured the amount of stainless that touches the cook top is plenty sufficient for heating and it works perfectly. I'm very happy with the purchase.

Amy they don't recommend using it on any glass top range, one for the weight possibly causing glass breakage becasue your transferring the heat beyond the actual eye area to the none heated area. As far as induction goes it wont work either as its made out of aluminum. Basically if a magnet wont stick to the bottom of a pot you can't induce enough magnetic current to heat the pot up. You could possibly use an interference disk to transfer the heat but your against the weight issue. This link explains it pretty well. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_cooking Hope that helps :)

A person who purchased the 5 QT version of this pot says that it DOES work on their induction range. (See the Q&A; for that item).

Mine works great on my induction stove top. I love it! Just make sure that the burner is not more than 1" larger in diameter or 1" smaller in diameter of the pot. They say that can cause the stove top to crack, although I've never had any problems. I think I've probably got 3/4" of the burner showing surrounding this cooker.

I have a Samsung Induction cooktop so I cannot answer your question but I do not see why your brand would be any different....as long as the pots can work with induction.

The bottom of the pot (the part that contacts the cooktop surface) can be up to 11". If More than that the pot will touch the front control panel which is flush with the rest of the surface. The control panel is made of a different plastic and looks like it might not tolerate contact with a hot pan. I have used a 15" flat bottom wok but the bottom diameter was only 9". Also, the induction coil is only about 6 1/2" diameter so large bottom cookware would get less heat at the perimeter--a condition that might not be convenient depending on what you're cooking.

Fourteen-inches may be "pushing" this unit a bit (this device's instruction/recipes book recommends cookware of no more than 12" in diameter). Like other "induction"-type devices of this price range, it concentrates it pan-heating, centrally-located circle of about 5.5 inches diameter.

I have a flat top electric range - I don't believe it is induction, just electric ceramic/glasstop range. They work well. They are very flat bottomed, and have not bowed on the bottom. I did have the largest pot warp slightly around the sides, but I am afraid that I did that when I was curing the pot before use. I think I may have had it too high or done something wrong. You are only supposed to heat on medium heat, so it takes longer for the pot to get hot.... and I still use my cast iron for browning. However, I would buy these pots again, and plan on getting another set for my son when he is on his own. They are that good.

It is perfectly flat for a diameter of about 7 inches in the middle, then it curves up from there. It sits nicely on a gas stove without a ring. I have never used induction, but it should work. It is not as thick as most cast iron. So, it heats a little more quickly.

If the pot base is flat it will sit "flat" on the glass top. Induction heating effectiveness will depend on the conductivity of the pot base material.

the outside diameter of the bottom is 19 cm, the induction ring diameter is 17 cm. If you're trying to find a lid for it the lid size should be 26 cm.

Cuisinart's site indicates the 77 Series (77-7, 77-14, 77-17) is NOT suitable for induction cooking. Try MCP-12N for an induction-compatible set from Cuisinart.

Yes. The inner pot is stainless steel, and is thus compatible with electric and induction ranges.
