Best skillet for glass top stoves?
175928
I am looking for a non-stick skillet in the 12-inch range. I am all for the Earth friendly options, but most importantly, it must sit flat on a glass top range. The skillet that I am retiring is a Cooks Tools from Belk. It has served admirably for three years, but now the non-stick is breaking down. At this point, it is worthless for frying eggs and it is only going to get worse. I am statisfied with the Cook's Tools from Belk, three years for a non-stick pan that gets used on a daily basis is very good, but Cook's Tool doesn't seem to have a comparable pan in their current lineup. Does anyone know of a largish skillet with a lid that won't worp? Basically, I need some thing with a thick multiclad bottom.

I don't know if you suppose to our not but I will use it on my glass cooktop. I have always used my old fashion iron skillet to fry chicken, etc. on my cooktop and my stove is 14 years old and I have not had any problems so far. I do cook a lot too.

I have the flat glass stove top but the pan was warped so it didn't work very well. I returned the pan.

Just use ceramic or cast iron. Pyrex has become a roulette game and it's just not worth the candle the third time you pick glass shards from yourself and have to replace the pan.

I have a smooth ceramic top stove and it works great. I love the flat bottom.

Yes, I would use it on a glass top stove. It would sit over the element just like you would put a pot.We owned a glass top at one time and from my experience it would transfer heat into the saw dustsmoke product the same was a flame burner would do.My glass-top stove had no restriction about the type of cookware we used on it.If you are required to use ceramic on yours, I would consult the stove manufacturer.

Dear Nancy, U can use any kind of pan, glass alumin, cast iron, etc. Use medium heat setting when N doubt. But let me tell , this is 1 of thee best investments I have ever made! N fact, I am going 2 buy another 1 for backup. Its great around the holiday. My preference has always been gas until my gas stove went out & I had 2 resort 2 this waring commercial stove top & now I don't even bother w/the gas stove anymore except for baking. Hope this helps U. Enjoy!

Awwww, don't give up. I just googledcookware for ceramic stovetop and it came back with "All-Clad" and "Calphalon" are good bets since they are heavy, flat bottomed cookware. You're going to pay dearly for them, they are some of the highest priced cookware out there. Good luck with your cookware-search.

If by 'reduction cooktop' you mean the 'glass cooktop', then yes. I use a glass cooktop and have always used cast iron skillets on the burners. I take care not to set them down hard, of course. I do find you can use lower temps with those. Amazon sells silicone handles for these too.

There is no reason this cannot be used on a glass stove top. Cooks evenly. I love my grill pan and use it almost every night.

According to www.lodgemfg.com, it will work on your glass cooktop. It does say however to not slide the cast iron on the glass top. This link should give you more answers. http://www.lodgemfg.com/useandcare/seasoned-cast-iron

We currently have a smooth glass top stove and this set works just fine on it. I am not certain what the manufacture recommends, but I cannot see any reason why they wouldn't recommend it for use on such tops.

We have the wok. It has a smooth bottom and would be fine on a glass top stove.
