Will a magnet stick to the bottom of the pot?

Nope no way these pots are exactly what you pay for them, which for me is just fine..

Take a magnet to the bottom if it adheres you can use it. Any cookware will work the same way.

I could not get a magnet to stick to the bottom of my inner pot. I have what I believe is the newest model--mine has the yogurt-making function. Even if a magnet stuck, you should be aware that the bottom of this pot is concave, not flat, so only the outer-most rim of the bottom would make contact with your stovetop. However, the Instant Pot itself has a "keep warm" function.

No, a magnet does not stick to the bottom of this pan. I tried a heavy magnet and it does not adhere. Love this pot, it is a nice size and weight. Clean up is not to difficult.

Yes, magnets will stick to the bottom of these pans. They're not remarkably firm sticking, but they hold their own weight. I have not tried it on an induction cooktop, but it should theoretically work. ;)

Yes a magnet will stick to the sides and bottoms of the pots and pans, however a magnet will not stick to the lids.

A magnet did not stick to my pot or insert, but did stick to the lid, and that surprised me. If it's good stainless, it should not be magnetic.

No a magnet does not stick. I do not know the answer to the other questions.

I wasn't entirely sure how to know at first. But, when I googled how to find out...I was told to try sticking a magnet to bottom of pot. If it stuck then it would be considered compatible with inductive cooking. The magnet did stick! I hope this helps.

No it does not. I got an error message on my induction burner. The magnet doesn't stick on the pot bottom either.

A magnet will not stick. The bottom is marked 18/10. I do not know whether the handle gets hot since I only use it to mix a lye solution for soapmaking.

No my refrigerator magnets do not stick. The stainless is really good quality and shiny. The handle could get too hot especially if near the burner-I usually use a pot holder to be safe but have used it without and it didn't feel hot- I think it depends what you cook in it- Very versatile- FYI I use it mainly as a water pitcher to fill my water dispenser and to mix and pour pancakes in it- only use it to cook in when all my cast-iron enameled pots are in use.. Hope this helps!

Magnets do not stick to the bottom of this pan. As for the handle I do not know as I use my pot for my coffee maker.

A magnet definitely sticks to the bottom. I've had this griddle over 2 years now, and I absolutely love it. I accidentally left a burner on and had a grease burn on the bottom that would not soak off. I used Barkeeper's Friend. and it looks brand new.

I took magnets off of my stainless steel fridge and I could NOT get them to stick to the pot. I did not try the middle of the bottom of the pot though, only the outer edges.

have not used on an induction cooktop but a magnet will attach to the bottom of the pot.

NO. It does not work with an induction stove, nor does a magnet stick to the bottom.
