Can the teapot be used on a stovetop?

No, it is not designed for stovetop use. It is for putting your tea bags in and then adding hot water.

I have looked at these types of pots at teavana, and was told you CANNOT heat them directly on the stove; I reccomend purchasing one of the warmers to keep the tea hot after making.

I don't think so. I think somewhere in the instructions or descriptions it says not to put it on the stovetop. The teapot is very thin, in my opinion, that is why a little warmer is able to heat it so well.

This is a teapot, not a tea kettle. It cannot be put on the stove. It is very pretty and I've had many compliments.

I do not have a gas stove now but I have had gas stoves before the teapot is made very good and the handle is station neared so it will not get hot next to the pot I see no reason that you would not enjoy it on the gas stove

I have never directly used my teapot on the stove ,I do pour boiling water over the tea and have no problems at all.

Hello,The teapot is NOT for stovetop use. The way it works is the filter is placed in the teapot. You put in the tea leaves and then pour hot water over the tea leaves and fill the teapot to the desired level. Allow the tea to rest 3 minutes or desired strength. Instructions are included. I hope this helps.

I would NOT recommend using this teapot on a cook top. I've had great success heating my water in a kettle or saucepan and pouring over loose tea in the strainer into the pot and let steep.

Maybe, but it is small, covering only a small portion of the stove-top burner, and the metal is not as thick on the bottom as a normal pot because it is designed to use with a steam wand and not through direct contact with a high heat source. I wouldn't use it on the stove.

Yes, the trim is plastic so you cannot use it on the stovetop and there are metal screws holding it together so it can not be used in the microwave. But I love my pot. It makes 2 perfect cups of tea for each teabag.

I would not suggest it. This is just to keep it from direct heat on your furniture. The teapot holds heat pretty well.

No, this set can not be used on the stovetop. However it is a very nice set.

I've never tríed using it on a stove top but wouldn't recommend it. The glass is fragile.

No. I would never use any vessel made of ceramic, porcelain, pottery or any other suchlike material on the stovetop. Boil your water in a teakettle, then pour it into the teapot for serving. Better to be safe than sorry!

No. It may be listed as a stovetop Teapot but the instructions say not to use on gas or electric burners. Heat water and pour over tea to infuse it only. I have had 2 of these and both cracked at the handle just sitting on the counter. They are way too fragile unless the company is offering a new modle.

I agree with the other two responses. I would not use mine on the stovetop as the pan is very thin. Works great in the over though!

I have not tried it on an induction cooktop. I use a cast iron tea candle holder with this teapot, and it will keep the tea warm for several hours. I think the instructions on the box said not to use on a stove to boil water in the pot, but if you have already brewed the tea, you might be able to keep it warm on the very lowest setting on an induction cooktop.
