Can the stoneware insert go on a burner on the stove?

No you can not. You can place it in the ocen on low heat or in the microwave but the stove top will crack the stoneware insert.

I've never tried to put on the stove, and I certainly don't intend to try. I'm almost certain it would crack it open.

No, I would be afraid to since it scratches easily and I don't know how solid the bottom of the pot is. I don't know if the stove top flame would burn it. I'd be careful!

No, but we do offer a slow cooker with stoneware that is safe on stove tops: http://www.amazon.com/Crock-Pot-SCCPVI600-S-Countdown-Stove-Top-Stainless/dp/B00IPENZK0/ref=sr_1_1?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1418073757&sr=1-1&keywords=SCCPVI600.

I do NOT believe Pyrex can be used on a burner of any kind. Oven or microwave only, as far as I know--never on the stovetop.

I don't know Helen. I have the traditional burners. But I don't see why not. It's a great set.

No but there are converters sometimes need to work with them to get them to fit just right. Check youtube and adapter available here on Amazon that is of the better variety. You will have to judge if one will work with your particular stove but they will adapt to a screw on type connector.

Yes. I use mine on a gas stove between 2 burners but it is flat on the bottom.

No, this set can not be used on the stovetop. However it is a very nice set.

You cannot put the insert in the oven or on the stovetop. Hope this clears up your confusion.

I'm going to suggest a no. On the underside it sits on a corrugated ring, which actually works perfectly to keep it in place on my gas stove burner grates and for me it works beautifully. But I have to think that each point of the corrugation would possibly scratch a glass stove top. More so than the bottom of the cast iron pan would. I am a member of a Facebook group called Cast Iron Cooking. Many folks on there use cast iron on their glass top stoves successfully. You just have to be careful not to slide the pan (scratches) or drop it (heavy and could break the glass). But in my estimation this diffuser is just not designed for a glass top.

Hi Rhonda, as far as I know, Farberware does not make just the insert. This double boiler is made to use as a set. Hope this helps.

YES. Use it every morning on the small burner. That's why I bought it. Works like a charm but must be properly located due to size.

No my new stove is a glass cooktop. But it sits up a bit on the pegs so would probably fit over the coil burners.

I think you should be able to. I did mine on the stove and it worked great.

The stoneware body will work in the oven but the glass lid has a plastic handle. No guarantees on what temp or how many exposures to high heat would melt or disfigure the lid.

Most definitly. The pot I use has a smaller diameter and has no trouble staying on the stove.

I don't see any reason why not, unless you have a gas oven with the burner beneath the oven. In that case, I think it might not be such a good idea.
