Induction Kettle Does this Oxo Uplift kettle work on induction stove tops or just gas?

It's amazing to me how little information about appropriate cooktops is in the product description. I must have an induction friendly kettle, but 3/4 of the descriptions don't mention it. Using a magnet in stores, I've discovered that many so called "pure stainless steel" kettles fail the magnet test... thanks for your input MommieMe.

NO! I called OXO and they confirmed this tea kettle will not work with induction cooktops. OXO does not currently have any induction ready tea kettles.

I love this griddle, buy I don't know if it works it on induction. I use it on a gas stove

Yep! Works great on my glass-top stove. Don't know about induction ranges, though--mine is a standard electric. I also used it on my old coil-type electric stove with no problem. In fact, I think there's a gas stove version that has a different bottom...but don't hold me to that! I love this tea kettle--it's easy to clean, heats up fast, and has a great classic look.

I have not used cast iron on the two burner cooktop I have, but it should hold up as long as you don't use a huge, heavy one. And as long as a magnet will stick to the pan used, it will work on induction cooktops. I have used large stainless steel soup kettles, full of soup, with no problem.

Yes, I have an induction stove (which has a glass/ceramic top) and it works great. However, I put the teakettle on empty on high, and the glass-based enamel fused to the stovetop. Removing the teakettle removed a couple of big chunks of the stovetop, permanently damaging it. DON'T USE ANY ENAMEL WARE ON ANY GLASS OR CERAMIC TOPPED STOVE!

I have a gas stove but it is a standard stainless steel pot. if you can use other SS cookwear with induction, you should be OK. I hope so bucause it's a nice little item!

No I have gas but it should work just like any pot of boiling liquid. Just chrck occasionally until you are sure you have the right setting

I don't have any experience with induction cook tops, but if you can boil water in a small sauce pan this will work. I use one on a large commercial stove, the one I gave my brother he uses on a hot plate and my son uses his on a small gas range. A simple explanation would be that you need to control the heat source so that you are only heating the bottom of the espresso maker.

Yes and no. I used this kettle happily on my old induction range for years and it worked great. I moved and got a new induction cooktop (different model), and the kettle didn't work well on it. I agree with the other answerer who points to the ridge on the underside as the culprit. The bottom does sit flat, but the circular ridge interrupts the continuity of the bottom surface. So, you take your chances with this one.

This item is made mostly of aluminum, including all of the exterior. Therefore, it will not work on an induction cooktop even though it has a thin stainless steel interior. Also, the bottom is actually raised above the burner surface, and thus this item will also not work with a convention smooth cooktop. It's really best suited to a gas cooktop.

I don't have an induction stove top, but to help answer your question, it does not have a magnetic base so I don't think this will work on an induction stove.

Sorry, I have a gas stove. I really don't know anything about induction stoves. Hope you can find someone to help you.

We use ours on gas cooktop but when I was researching the cookware it stated induction compatible

Both top and bottom have a thick base but I have a gas burner. I don't know anything about induction stove tops. Sorry

That's a good question. I don't have an induction stove (I have gas) but I have this pressure cooker - how would I be able to tell, and I will check to see. Thanks!

The owners manual is in Japanese, making it tough to know... The bottom plate is magnetic, obviously so it will work with induction stovetops. This means it's 18/0, and has a slight tendency to stain. The rest of the kettle is not magnetic - probably standard 18/10 or 18/8 (300 series) stainless steel.

I use mine on both a gas and a glass topped electric. Perhaps that is an induction top, I don't know. It works well on both of my surfaces.
