are the bottoms of the pans smooth so as not to scratch a glasstop ceramic stove?

Yes, they are smooth. I do not think they will scratch the stove top. The pans are really very nice for the money.

Yes, Very smooth! Which is why I purchased these to use on my smoothtop cooktop.

The bottom of the pans and skillet are smooth and I use them on a ceramic stove-top daily. I love this cookware set.

Hi Pja, the bottom is quite smooth but I can't ensure you that this set are good enough for glasstop ceramic stove. To be honest, I think the pan could scratch it.. if you are not careful using it!

Yes they are smooth. I use them on my ceramic stove all the time with no problems.

If it were me I would not put them direct on the stove. I would worry about scratching. I love my set and we use them with gas stove.

Don't think you need to worry about scratching cookware surface as the blades do not touch the either the sides or the bottom of the pot. When I use the blender, I keep the blade guarde pretty much off of the pot surface but even if you do touch a surface, it would not leave a mark. Enjoy

They have metal ridges on the bottoms of the pans that can scratch the surface of a glass top stove. I returned my set for that very reason.

i've had mine sense Thanksgiving and cook on "high" alot and they have not warpped, scrached or peeled. My wife loves them. We have a glass top stove also.

It is smooth, but woks dont work well on glass top stoves. they need the heat of the flame coming up the side to cook all the way around. They tend to take a high amount of heat on them and glass tops only put heat on the bottom/touching surface.

Because these pans are porcelain, they blister with high heat.. Also glass stove tops are very sensitive, so as long as you use moderate heat it's OK to use, adult supervision for sure.

the bottom is grooved, however i use the pan on a glasstop range without any problem.

I have a smooth ceramic top stove and it works great. I love the flat bottom.

The edge of the lid is smooth and it has not scratched the pan. Unfortunately, the lids are much better than the Ozeri pans, IMO.

Aluminum has a Mohs hardness index of only 2-2.9. Glass is 4.5-6.5, and I assume the tempered heat-resistant glass used in cooktops would be at the top end of that range or higher, so there shouldn't be any problems with scratching. And the "sharp edges" other reviewers have been talking about are 90 degree cuts; there are no sharp protrusions pointing downward to the stove's surface.

flat enough, but has rough surface... not sure it will or will not scratch glass stove ( i have gas stoves)

The blade is recessed so that would not scratch a smooth surface. However, the outer metal circle does vibrate a bit and sounds like it is scratching the pot while it is on, if I let it hit the bottom of the pot. It's not necessary to touch the bottom of the pot and I've used it on non-stick surfaces and haven't had a problem, but haven't inspected closely.

this one has smooth bottom and i think it should be safe to use it on those smooth cooktops. i cant guarantee because all my live i had gas but by looking at the bottom of that pan it shouldnt scratch or break your cook top. im personally very happy with it.

I have the green, i have plenty of scratches, but its not down the metal yet. Its a lighter green where it is scrathed. As far a easily scratched, not so much. My stove top is cast iron, so i knew it would scratch no matter what. And i also use them in the dishwasher. They hold upalot better than most sets ive owned

The outside is very smooth - I would have no fears using it on a glass top stove (versus a normal cast iron pan that might scratch the stovetop)
