can the insert be used on the stove?

We don't recommend using this stoneware on stove tops. However, we do have a Crock-Pot 6-Quart Slow Cooker with Stovetop-Safe Cooking Pot, and you can see more about it at http://www.crock-pot.com/slow-cookers/digital-slow-cookers/SCCPVI600-S.html#start=2.

Truthfully, it depends on the stove type. Yes you can; *however* when I used mine on an electric stove (with a smooth top), the largest pan became slightly warped every time it got very hot, and so my burgers ended up cooked unevenly (which I made up for by moving them around more). I have a set an my Mom's house too, and her stove uses gas flames - this is highly compatible with the pans!

Sorry, you must be confusing this with another ProCom fireplace insert. This is the only freestanding stove they sell; the rest of their products are fireplace inserts which can be used with an existing hearth or the with hearths they sell. I believe most inserts will come with several hearth options.

Yes it can be, that is the type of stove we have and have used it several times, no problems. This Cook ware is GREAT Quality, DO NOT GET THE version if stampled MAde in China, it will not be original.

Not sure about an insert available, but you could as a steamer if needed. The basket is pretty deep and i just checked and there is about an inch clearance bwtn the bottom of the basket and the bottom of the pan. So i guess it would depend on how long you needed to steam. For quick things i would think okay, but i wouldn't try a small lobster, probably run out of water before it was ready. Hope this helps! We use all the time for two people's worth of pasta.

The stove grate, griddle and grill inserts can be used in any combination - grate/griddle, grate/grill, grate/grate etc. Mix and match as you need. Very flexible system!

If you mean the pan, then definitely no. If you mean the silicone insert then yes you probably could.

No insert. Just the two cookers (6.5L and 3L) and a single lid that fits both.

That extra insert is designed to go down into the throat of the stove so that you can use charcoal briquettes instead of wood to fire the stove.

Don't know if you can use it on the stove. I have only used it once so far to bake a cake. It worked well and I like it even though it is a little small.

If you were going to buy this pot for the insert, why wouldn't you use the set? You can use the Cuisinart for something else. I often have two veggie steamers going at once. I use an old unstable, collapsable steamer insert in one of my other pots and put asparagus spears into that one.No problem with large spears, if it is a bit tippy upon taking it out. My Oggi steamer holds the carrot coins or cauliflower florets. It is a very nice pot.

An insert that has holes sits about an inch or so above the bottom for steaming

I wouldn't. It says "perfect for oven, microwave and refrigerator" - I think it would include stovetop if it were safe.

I'm not sure because the insert is plastic so I don't know if it will hold up to boiling water.

Can't see why not. As long as it's not ceramic but a normal coil element type stove. Will take a few minutes to heat though.

Yes, it can be used on the stove top as long as the enamel on the bottom is not chipped.

I don't see why not. It's just a piece of cast iron. That said, I have only used it on gas stoves.
