Can regular pots and pans be used.

Not all metal will work,best test ..if a magnet sticks to it,it will work. Everything in stores now will say on the label if it will work with induction ranges.

You can use steel or cast iron. Glass or aluminum do NOT work on this stovetop.

The cookware must be steel or enameled cast iron, iron, steel or non-enameled cast iron, or 18/10 stainless steel and aluminum, if it is suitable for induction. A magnet will adhere to the cookware if it is induction suitable. I use All-Clad and Duxtop cookware and my cast iron skillet. Non-induction ready cookware is: cookware with a diameter of less than 4 3/4, ceramic glass, stainless steel, aluminum, bronze or copper unless it is specifically marked as suitable for induction, cookware with feet.

Short Answer, No. The easiest way to test the pan in question is to apply a magnet to the bottom of the pan. If it 'sticks' then you're good to go, if not then the pan will not work.

No, only cookware that have magnetic bottoms as induction cooking requires compatible cookware

Yes, all cast iron pans, pots, grills, and griddles will work great. Anything magnetic will work. I have found though, that ones with shallower sides will heat up a little quicker.

Yes pots will fit on every hook. Extra hooks are handy as you will likely find a use for them.

I would say yes. The lids are of the same quality product as the pots and pans. Make sure you are buying a U.S. Product. I love my All-Clad. I own many pieces.

Yes. You can use metal utensils on this cookware as it doesn't have a non-stick coating.

I don't know but I thought the advert say so. I can tell you that I have very large and heavy pots on them and no problem so I think that you would be okay using them.

Yes- And I use both pots often, both for pressure and for regular cooking.I stopped using my ALCLAD!

No. Any regular cooking pan is fine. One thing I did learn that isn't in my review. It does use a lot of energy. I still really like it but am now using my crock pot for the things that take a long time to keep my energy bill smaller.

Since the pots are non-ferromagnetic material an interface disk that is of ferromagnetic material must be used for induction heating. see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_cooker

might not fit with all the pots and pans inside. it comes with some small cup/bowls and 2 flatware u could remove and might fit. if not u have to sacrifice a few pans

Yes, although you would put a little more than usual in each pan. Best just to give it a go.

Yes. Al the pots and pans are stainless steel and magnets will stick to tnem.

You can use any cookware that you would normally use. This is not an induction plate. I would recommend this purchase as it works marvelously!

You can, but you don't need to. Once the pan is seasoned, simple hot water will do fine.

We did not have to. I guess it would depend on the type of pots and pans you have. If they were very heavy, I would reinforce. Regular pots and pans are fine. Hope this helps!

I would think you could, but why use such a good pan when an old pan would do.

Yes, I stack the smaller pots and pans with a cloth between each so there is no abrasion.
