Rachael Ray porcelain enamel cookware: Does anyone know if this cookware can be used on a ceramic cooktop?

I thought it was just the procelain set that can't be used on ceramic stoves. Now that's ONLY if the phone rings or something, and you leave it on the stovetop for an hour and over heat it, but it ain't worth risking a $1000 stove. The hard anodized one says right in the description that it's okay for ceramic cooktops.

Yes there is enamel on the interior and it works perfectly. Best wok we have owned for ceramic or induction cook top (hobs).

yes, I have a ceramic cook top and it works very well. I like the pan very much and will probably buy the set when I can afford it.

I have a gas cook top. I don't think it would work with glass /ceramic. I'd contact your cook top manufacturer.

I don't think so. Its glass. Would you use glass on ceramic cook top? I only use to fill with boiling water.

The instructions that come with the cookware state that this can happen. They do not recommend using this cookware on glass/ceramic cooktops. I'm going to try anyway...anybody else tried?

Hello, yes, I use this skillet on a ceramic glass top. However, I would highly advise against sliding the skillet on the cooktop. Hope this helps!

I am not sure...I have a gas range. It does work well for paella and I do not see any reason why it wouldn't work on a glass-ceramic top unless you have to you special cookware??

I do not think it will work on a ceramic cook top. It requires flames to contact the steel surface to distribute the heat properly. Without the flames, you wont get optimum cooking temps. They dont work great on gas cook tops either, unless they are high BTU burners. This is why I use it on an outdoor cooker meant for fish fry's and crab boils.

Yes, it can be used on a glass cooktop, and a regular electric spiral cooktop. I have done both without any issue.

That's weird that the instructions say that. At the Rachael Ray store at Cooking.com, it says that this set (the hard anodized set) is safe for use on ceramic and glass cooktops.

Yes, I have a ceramic cooktop myself and they work wonderfully. Just remember to follow the directions that come with them pans and they will last forever. I was also told at a retail store recently that they are the best coated frypan on the market.

If it is a ceramic stove here is the answer I Googled for you.Can All-Clad cookware be used on a ceramic range?Yes. In fact, All-Clad is one of the best choices for this type of range since our cookware is balanced and the contact surfaces are smooth (the exceptions are our grill pans). The bonded construction and superior heat distribution help prevent scorching, which can be a problem with this style of stovetop when using other brands of cookware. Betty

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.

If by ceramic you mean glass cooktop then I would say yes. I have an induction glass cooktop and the set works great.

It can be used on ceramic cooktop but I would be afraid that the top would be scratched. It is a very heavy grill and I love the way it cooks my meat, but it is a heavy metal.

Yes it can. I have a ceramic stove top, and it works perfectly. You just have to remember to always lift and not slide the pan as it will scratch since it's so heavy. I truly love this pan!!
