is this pan steel (induction ready)?

Aluminum pans without copper or steel discs inside the bottom do not work on induction cooking surfaces.That is not to limit those materials, but those are the ones often used in hybrid aluminum pans.Those who answered about material quality or saying it heats quickly, you should not answer if you do not know.. read up on induction cooking... it requires steel, iron, or copper on the bottom of the pot or pan. (Not all sites list copper, but copper is superior for energy transfer efficiency)Hope this helps. (About this pan.. the bottom is aluminum, which does not work on induction surfaces.)

It is a metal pan, but from what I have read about induction cooking, I would not recommend this omelette pan. The metal used in cookware for induction cooking should be a higher quality.

No good for induction with it being made out aluminium and stainless steel so don't buy it, hope this helps ?....Mike

Hmmm, I'm not really sure about that... But if you're asking if the pan heats up quickly, yes it does heat up faster than other pans... Hope that helps. :>

I am not sure what the undercoat of it is, but I know that it is coated in nonstick. If you use a sharp object to touch the pan it will scrape the coating.

The pan is stainless steel so I would image it would, not an expert but you might check out this link for more information. http://cookingequipment.about.com/od/cookware/f/Induction-Compatible-Cookware.htm I hope this helps...

Nope. These are aluminum pans. Induction only works with high iron content.

I have an induction cooktop, and it works. As one of the previous reviewer stated, if a magnet will stick to it, it's induction compatible. I have noticed that it takes longer to heat than my cast iron does on the same setting.

this pot is aluminum and not induction ready, only stainless that is magnetic will function on induction. Galen S.

Yes, pans must be induction capable. New pots and pans that are induction compatible will have an icon on the packaging that indicates this. Some older steel pots and pans will also work, but not all. The SPT 1300 worked great for us.

It is ABSOLUTELY induction ready. And I find it to be VERY efficient. I don't know of another set of cookware that is induction ready that is any more efficient. Go with the best. I just purchased my set AND a DUXTOP 1800-Watt Portable Induction Cooktop Countertop Burner 8100MC. I used mine for the first time tonight and I am VERY pleased. I can cook from my wheelchair for the first time in three years.

No, it is aluminum. There is no steel encapsulated in it. You could, however, use it IF you purchase an induction interface disk such as: http://www.amazon.com/Max-Burton-6010-Induction-Heat-Proof/dp/B00213L3PK/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1390921228&sr=8-4&keywords=induction+heat+plate

Note that it says it has an aluminum base, so no. All of my stainless-steel cookware is useless for induction due to aluminum bases. Aluminum does not magnetize. Try putting a magnet up to aluminum can. No luck.

No. Cuisinart is careful to point out the cookware that has a magnetized steel base and is induction ready for their cookware that is induction ready The Cuisinart Green Gourmet Ceramic pans like the 12" skillet on Amazon say magnetized steel base is induction ready. Nice pan, $99.

No, induction requires the metal to be magnetic which aluminium isnt. Even if oart of the pan is cast iron (which I doubt), you shouldnt use mixed metal-ware on induction as the difference in heat transfer and response to the magnetic field can damage the layers (pan) permanently. Mixed alloys should only be used if it states "for induction" clearly on the label (and they are expensive). Otherwise stick with steel or cast iron. Good luck with your bleskiver. They are a great dessert!

Yes. I purchased it for my mother. She loves it. I have used it a couple of times and I liked the way it cooked. The food was nicely done and I didn't see and uneven heating. Clean up was easy too. I would recommend this pan for induction cooking or just regular cooking.

Yes. It says so (universal symbol) on the bottom of the pan. It is a great choice for an induction plate with a small diameter restriction.

This pot is stainless steel. Stainless steel is usually not induction capable. However, to my surprise it did get warm on our induction cooktop, but only mildly. I suspect that there is an inner layer of steel which will get warm, but since the outer layer is stainless the coupling is not good. This means that it may work OK, but it will likely not get very hot.

Yes, you probably missed it but it says "induction compatible" in the description. I might also add that I love these very high quality pans.

The 3rd picture shows a coil, which is the symbol for induction as someone already said.SS by itself is not induction ready as SS is not magnetic. Usually manufacturers will put a metal bottom on SS pans to make them induction ready.
