How does this kettle do on a regular glass top stove? not induction.

It works very well on a ceramic( glass ) top stove , and of course great on an induction element . PTF

It is smooth, but woks dont work well on glass top stoves. they need the heat of the flame coming up the side to cook all the way around. They tend to take a high amount of heat on them and glass tops only put heat on the bottom/touching surface.

We don't have the answer to that question. Suggest you check with the manufacturer. Have never used on a glass top stove. Good Luck.

i have a glass top electric stove and had no problem with the tea kettle. it would have to bemade with tempered glass to be a tea kettle. just don't drop it on the floor like i did!

All I can tell you is that we use gas range and with the copper core my wife loves it. She said it heats the water extremely faster than her old kettle. Sorry I can not give you a better answer but I'm not very familure with the induction top.

I use it on a glass top stove, and have had no problems. It might scratch in the long run, but I haven't seen it yet.

I use cast iron on my glass top stove all the time with no problems. Just dont slide it around or drop the pan on it and it will be fine

I have only used it on gas. I would make sure you have a metal coil between the stove top and the kettle. I am not sure that the kettle can take the direct heat. Also, my kettle was short lived. The top cracked as I was putting it on the kettle. It is now a vase.

Yes. The bottom of the kettle is covered with a smooth metal. This is about as little metal I have been able to find in an electric kettle. The alternative is an all glass pot requiting a stove. It is a no frills unit that works great and is not hot to the touch on the outside (double wall...).

Works perfectly fine for me on an electric induction stove top. As another poster suggested, don't heat much higher than 6 out of 10 or you risk burning through the copper bottom if you aren't typically attentive to your boiling water. I made that mistake with this same kettle before. Lesson learned.

I use it on gas stove. Don't know about glass top but bottom not flush with outside rim so may not heat as well.

I have no experience of cooking on a glass top stove (I assume inducton heating) but it should perform no differently than any other metal cooking vessel.

I put it right on out glass stove and it works great. The real brewing part takes place up top in the method. Hope that helps.

I have a glass top electric stove top and it works great. It takes a moment to figure out the right temperature but once that is resolved, it is good to go. I wash it after it has cooled slightly and it cleans up well. If anything sticks, just let it soak.

Yes this kettle works on an induction cooktop. We bought it precisely for this reason and it works beautifully! It isn't that the bottom needs to be magnetic, but rather that the kettle bottom will respond to the magnetic field generated by the induction cooktop (this distinction is probably lost on most people). So if a magnet sticks to the bottom, or it says that it works with induction, it will work for your cooktop. Enjoy!
