Yes, the pan is ferrous (a magnet will stick to it). I love this pan and plan on buying the smaller version soon.

Yes, a magnet sticks ( it's a steel pan). Awesome pan on my gas range........ Get the handle cushion too.

Yes, magnets do stick....I have the 10 and 12 inch, they should last you forever if seasoned and washed correctly over time....use them every day.

The pan is carbon steel a magnet does stick and you will have no chipping problems.

The NuWave unit works like a charm too. I bought my Kitchen Aid cookware to go with it and I have nothing but positive comments for both...you'll be amazed.

I was using the pans at lunchtime and checked it for you with a fridge magnet..Sorry, a magnet did not stick to any part of the pans so probably it would not work for you. I didn't know how the induction cooktops worked, so I'm glad you asked the question about magnets, good to know!

not compatible with NuWave Induction Cooktop. Induction cooktops usually require a magnetic material; this set is made of aluminum which is not magnetic. do not buy these if you want to use for induction cooktops.

Well, I just went in the kitchen and stuck a refrigerator magnet on it, and voila! It stuck. Oddly, it did not stick as strongly as it did on the 'fridge, but it did stick. Hope that helps. BTW it is a very good pan.

Hi Liz, I do not have the Nuwave pic2 unit but I do have a Nuwave Induction heating burner and I bought the Nordic Ware Commercial Induction frying pan to use. I have used it several times and it has preformed beautifully each time. I thoroughly enjoyed the pan. I don't see any reason that you couldn't use it. Hope you enjoy it as much as I have.

On Feb 1, 2014, I received this skillet from Amazon. It is definitely NOT compatible with my induction cooktop. The pan bottom is not attracted to a magnet, a requirement for it to work with any induction cooktop. I think something must have changed in the manufacture of this item since the earlier answers to this question. Induction buyers beware!

to Markmurto, have you adapted NuWave recipes to this oven? I have the Oyama arriving tomorrow, since it is non-halgen and supposedly short on recipes and all the cookbooks for this type oven are halogen inspred, I'm thinking I'll be "creatively adapting" all my regular cooking times/temps with this oven. I did not want halogen because of burnt/exploding bulb/burnt socket issues I've read with the halogens. Any answer from you (or others) is appreciated, thank you!

I don't know. I didn't keep the NuWave as I didn't have compatible cookware. It is advertised as being able to use MOST cookware. Well, that isn't true. I have a large variety and the only one that works is my iron skillet. When I called to return it for that reason, they suggested I buy their cookware. I returned to NuWave, instead.

I have an induction cooktop, and I purchased this griddle specifically for the new cooktop because it was supposed to work with induction. Well, it depends on your definition of "work" is. Sure enough, its flat surface "works" on induction. Sure enough, it is magnetic and that "works" on induction. However, on my induction cooktop, the only area that heats up enough to cook is the area directly over the round "burners". So, if I try to cook, say, 8 pancakes on my griddle, only the part that sits over the round "burner" actually cooks. So, I've been dealing with a lot of half-raw pancakes, unless I only cook 2 at a time. I do not know if this is because carbon steel does not distribute heat well. Now, for something like sauteing, it works better. Very disappointing.

maybe but mostly not. The bottoms need to have iron or enough to respond to magnetism. A small magnet comes with the Nuwave and you can test each pan. A few of mine worked and my cast iron fry pan worked.

If a magnet can stick to the pan then it will work. If not then you need different pans. I love this cooktop btw.

I googled Culinary arts on about.com, induction cooking. It said the pan would only work if it was Steel or cast iron and that to check a pan, see if a magnet sticks to it. If it does, it's steel or cast iron and will work. I stuck a magnet to this pan and it didn't hold. I think I read in another comment that this pan is aluminum. So my guess is it wouldn't work. The induction cooking article on about.com is very helpful. Maybe they would know a good Eco pan for the stove.

Probably is your cookware is incompatible with the unit. Test the cookware with a magnet. If it sticks to it you can use it....if not take your magnet with you to shop for compatible pans.

My understanding is that if a magnet sticks to a surface, it will work with induction. I just pulled a magnet on the fridge to check for you and it does stick to the pan. I don't know why you would want to use this on a cooktop, but yes, it appears you could.

Please only answer this question if you have an INDUCTION cooktop. We have an INDUCTION cooktop and IT DOES NOT WORK. A magnet will not stick to the pan. Although the Cuisinart website seems to say that this line is induction friendly, IT IS NOT. DO NOT BELIEVE THE YES ANSWERS HERE!

Yes. The pots will work on any induction cooktop (pic2 is an induction cooktop). The quality of this cookware is not upto par and all the pots do NOT work. If you go to walmart you can purchase the NuWave set of cookware for $99.99. I threw away the red pots and purchased the NuWave brand. Excellent quality and ALL the pots work. Can't believe amazon doesn't have them for the same price or better.
