I have a flat glass-top cooktop that measures approximately 31" x 21" and has the knobs on the top, righthand side. Since this item is smaller than the top of my cooktop, it sounds like it will fit over part of the cooktop, excluding the knobs. Does that sound right? Would that look weird to only cover part of the cooktop? I have a flat glass-top cooktop that measures approximately 31" x 21" and has the knobs on the top, righthand side.

Yes, I agree with Kelly. The knobs will show, but it allows you to use that space while you work in the kitchen without a worry about scratching or dripping of your glass cook top, and it really looks nice. I love mine.

Yes that is right. My knobs show too but it looks fine. I really think you will like it.

Hi, I just measured my pan- it is pretty much a round bottom so it is pretty hard to measure: the full bottom measures 9 1/2"but: where it will fit the burner it measures 9" so I hope it helps you.I just love this pan and so will you.Anita

Im sorry I dont know anytime about glass top stoves. I bet if you email or call Calphalon someone else has had the same questions.

This MaxiMatic is the second single burner I have owned. I remember reading that one should not use a pot or pan that is wider than the burner. (Possibly for safety reasons - - think of accidentally tilting. The model I have is ~ 8 1/2" in width.) 12" pots or pans would overhang. Also, my burner is elevated about 3 1/4" above the cabinet top surface. (Easier to tilt an overhanging pot or pan.) The burner is certainly powerful enough to bring liquids to boil. [I actually use mine more than the burners on my range top. So convenient, and has good levels of controls to adjust for whatever food is to be cooked.)

I don't remember the exact dimensions.. you might find those by reading a few more feedback/review items.. but I can tell you that it was made to go over a 3-burner RV stove so.. unless a person had an 'apartment-sized' stove.. (pretty small footprint), this would be too small to cover the top.

Hmmm, stainless pot covers usually are designed to lay flat on top of the pot. Glass cover have the stainless part bend and this part goes inside the pot. as far as dimensions go - the glass cover has 10.25" outside diameter, and 10" inside diameter, this way it rests on the pot firmly. technically, it should fit.

I just measured it with a square. It bows up 1/8 inch in the middle even when cool. Then warps more as it is heated. I didn't find that to be a big problem however on my glass top stove. BTW, here is a trick. Most of my pots are flat bottomed and I do have a ceramic cooktop. I have some copper bottom pots that are not flat on the bottom which do not work well, but use a trick to get them to work faster. If you wet the bottom of the pan before you put it on the stove the water will turn to steam and efficently transfer heat from the cooktop surface to the bottom of the pan. The steam condenses on the bottom of the pan and then drips back to the cooktop surface to boil away again. I just measured it with a square. It bows up 1/8 inch in the middle even when cool.

I wouldn't imagine it would be a good fit for a glass cooktop. It is heavy iron- might scratch your stove. I'm thinking it wouldn't conduct the heat as well as it does on a gas range, either.

Hi Carma, I wish I could decide for you, but you're really going to have to decide for yourself. I guess it would mostly depend on how it would fit on your range. I own the 14x23 and it measures basically 14x23 (give or take 1/4" in either direction). On my range it would stick out about 1/2" if I placed it on two burners front-to-back, and it overlaps the neighboring burner grills by a couple inches. You should measure your own range to get a feel for how it would fit. You may decide that it's too big or you may decide that it's okay. I do like this size because I can easily fit 6 "normal-sized" pancakes on it at one time. I'm sorry that I couldn't be more help...

I'm still deciding whether to buy this... Looking at the very different answers for how wide this oven is -I'm assuming the wider is measured with those black 'feet' that stick out beyond the sides (to keep a good distance from other things I suppose.. ) Is this correct?

I just got mine. I have a 9 X 13 that I was hoping to be able to use, but the handles make it entirely too long. Do you know where I could find a 9X13 GLASS pan WITHOUT handles? I need this size for my cake, but I HATE to use the big stove oven.

This pan is oversized so my crusts do not go over the sides but rather fit completely inside the pan. Hope this helps.

B. Coomes asks the very same question I have. I got a 12" skillet and sent it back because it was warped in the middle and NOT flat. I now BADLY want this 5.5 qt. casserole to take it's place, but I see negative reviews for it as well, exactly like my review for the 12" skillet. That was exceedingly disappointing! Does anyone with a FLAT cooktop stove have a good review for this pan??????? I'm not ordering until I know that they are not ALL defective, and that I have a good chance with it.

You should also have plenty of room between top and another surface, it gives off heat. Sad thing is all toaster ovens suffer from this, figured someone would have fixed that but it is a great oven.

No!!!!! This is my only complaint :(Also, it's super super small. Really cute. And super small. Now I need to buy one for the stove top :( I'd return this but shipping is so expensive.

The top works perfect for some of my cookers. The inside holds my smaller cookers. My mixer was to wide to fit inside. But I find the item to be very handy for my use. Hope this helps
