I need a flat bottom for the new ceramic stove. Is this a flat bottom, or a ring around the outside?

It has a ring on the bottom. You might find a Pyrex kettle better for your ceramic stove.

There is a ring around the bottom, and I just tested to see if it left a warm spot in the middle, and it really doesn't. The bottom is designed not to be flush with the ring. Don't think it will be great for ceramic.....

The bottom is not totally flat. It has a flat inner circle, then an indented section, and then the edge. I don't know why it wouldn't work on a ceramic stove. I say, "give it a try, you can always return it if it's not right."

It does have a ring, but the bottom past the ring is the level with the lip created by the ring, It looks like it should work fine on a ceramic stove.

The bottom is perfectly flat. Don't know anything about pans on glass topped stoves.

The bottom of my Dutch oven seems perfectly flat. It seats solidly on a Thermador electric cook top. I have found it very satisfactory both on the cook top and in the oven.

Whirlpool W10216179 Wok Ring A regular wok ring didn't work for me, but someone gave me one of these, a Whirlpool Wok Ring (I don't know if the link is allowed, if not just search for it on Amazon.) A round bottom is MUCH better than a flat bottom when it comes to woking. If you need to know why, I can write you the 10+ page answer.

No, it is not bowl shaped at the bottom, it is just flat with no corners as it is round.This is one of my favorite pans, just the right size for many foods and the lid has two sizes of drain holes.It is a quality piece of cook ware.

The outer bowl has a flat bottom. These colander/strainers are hard to find. Zyless also makes one, but it is terribly expensive, but the quality is superb. You will be happy with the item Amazon sells.

Yes, it has a flat bottom, and I too have a glass stove top. It works great on it.

It's a round bottom.. not flat at all. I don't think it will work without a ring.

Bottom is flat but it will not work on conduction cook top. If a magnet won't stick to it it will not work on a conduction cook top.

The bottom the pan is flat, however it has small 1/4 inch circles on it. Hope this makes sense.

Flat bottom, but also has a small cooking rack to put in the bottom if you want to use that. I have not used it yet, but have cooked quite a few different things in it including ribs, and everything has turned out wonderful!

This does not have a flat bottom. It is hollow. It rests on the outside circumference and the indentations do not touch the stove. I have used it on gas as well as electric ranges with good results.

The bottom is flat ,but there is a half inch indentation around the edge . I use it on a glass top stove and have no problems.

The bottom is indeed flat so theoretically it can be used on a ceramic top. I have a plain stove but I think you would like the functionality of the pan. The bottom is metal and I am not sure about how ceramic tops work but I use my pan to cook most of my meats like burgers and steaks with good results.

Ours was flat when we got it. With use the center raised 1/8 inch and no longer touches the burner on our flat top stove.

Yes, the bottom is flat. I have used in on my ceramic stove top over a year now with no problems.
