Is the bottom flat enough to use on an induction "burner"?

The bottom of this pot is mostly flat, except for a relatively narrow recessed "groove" around the perimeter, where the bottom piece is crimped to the body. The metal is thin, but a magnet WILL stick to the bottom, so it might work will with an induction system.

It does have a flat bottom that is a encapsulated disk on bottom and works great on my glass top. I'm not sure about induction but if you can use glass top pans it would. You could call company about it and find out for sure.

I have a flat top electric stove, it works wonderfully. The bottom is perfectly flat.

Sorry Vickie, I have no idea. I quit using the pan when I found out how warped the bottom was. I have one of those flat top stoves, (forgot the official term), and one half of the pan would hardly heat. Unless you get one that has a completely flat bottom I would say "no" to the induction question.

Yes, the bottom is flat so that it sits on a burner or the counter without a stand.

Yes, I use it soley on an induction stove. Works great and keeps the bottom sparkling clean. This cookware is like a piece of jewelry to be kept nice and shiny!

Yes it has a flat bottom......check with Lodge if it is safe on a ceramic cooktop.

This is not a flat-bottomed pan. The ribbing on the inside is also reflected with ribbing on the bottom. I do not think this would be a good heat conductor for induction cooking. Nancy

I have used mine to great effect on a glass cooktop. The bottom is indeed flat, so you should have no problems using it at all.

IF there isnt ANY steel on the bottom it will NOT work with the induction cooktop! We have a few induction burners and a magnet MUST stick/hold well to the bottom of the pot for it to work. IF this is a true stainless as the title says, it WILL NOT work on an induction burner.

If induction works with cast iron, I don't see why not. Outside bottom of the pan is flat, which means it would have full contact with the stove.

Yes. The sides are curved like a wok, but it has a nice flat bottom, which I beleive is necessary for an induction cook top.

Will do fine as long as it is perfectly flat and the right metal. If the bottom is bowed even a little it will not heat properly.

probably not...there's not enough flat bottom surface to work (if it will at all). This is best used on a gas stove or on a portable butane gas burner.

they do not have a completely flat bottom, the middle bottom of the pan will not touch the stove surface so it is not likely that these would work well on an Induction stove! The induction stoves must have perfectly flat bottomed pots and pans to make good connection and these pans will not do that!

This is a valid question for someone looking to buy cookware for an induction burner. PLEASE do not answer this question unless you really know what you're talking about!!! Some people don't know what an induction burner is and think anything that isn't electric coil or gas is an induction. It is NOT. The very easiest way to to tell if a pan will work is to see if a magnet will stick to the bottom. If it does, it will work with induction burners.

The bottom is flat, but the brand name is engraved in the center of it. It's not large but it might have a negative effect if the entire thing needs to rest flat on the burner. Emmet R says it works great :) you should listen to him.
