Can I use it with electric hot plate, not the butane stove?
801945
No this is mainly for butane portable gas stove as the bottom of the plate is not flat.

I would think not good to be on the electric stove becuase the back of the marble plate has legs that meant to sit on the stove top. So for electric stove you need a plate thats flat and rouch the electric plate surface. This castiron marble cannot do. Wont be able to get heat up properly

I would say yes. I even use it on my ceramic stove and it works fine. It has to be a flat surface to sit well. If your hot plate is flat and large enough to allow it to sit flat you should be fine. Check the dimensions.

I don't know, as I have not tried it, but I suspect that it would be OK. The amount of heat should be about the same. It is a great product! The legs on it might make this use problematic.

Jen, Yes, it is cast iron so you should be able to use it on a camp fire, stove, in the oven, electric or gas I would think. It was given as a gift so I have not seen it myself but hope this is helpful.

Yes you can place it on a hot plate without damage to either product but it simply won't work well. The unit was built to be over a high heat to cook the food. Would you place food directly on the hot plate to cook it...probably not. Hot plates are meant to keep things warm not cook the food. The Castiron Stove is meant to get hot...like a pan on a stove and sear the food quickly. Also it is built with stabilizing legs that elevate it ababove the burner. The bottom of the Castiron would not even touch the hot plate. The butane stove is a great, inexpensive and mobile product. They are great for picnic and emergencies as well. I was out of power for 7 days after super storm Sandy hit the Northeast. We used the butane stove frequently for cooking. It is a valuable, flexible and inexpensive investment. It also doubles as an extra burner if you are cooking for a crowd and your stove top is being used for other purposes. Many hotels use them at breakfast for making omelets etc. Hope that helps.

I'm actually not sure I have a regular electric stove. I would guess it would be of but I wouldn't have it on extreme heat since those pans can get very hot.

Just noticed the list from mfg in the description. It says USE WITH ELECTRIC STOVES. Ask the mfg for a photo of the bottom of the pot and again, ask if it could be used on a conduction heat electric surface. Good Luck.

Yes, a hot plate wouldn't be a problem, a frying pan straight from the stove might.

I don't see why not. I use it on my electric range and camping on 2 burner gas stove. Just keep the wooden handle upright.

Noreen, this is not electric. I have used it on the grill or open fire. I take it camping, the back yard, the kitchen, you name it. If it is hot, if it has coals, I can cook with it. Noreen, I suggest you go on line and look at the site, http://www.cancooker.com/ all your questions will be answered there. Noreen, I use it a lot. But I am also a huge fan of the cast iron camp fire cooking pans. I think a lot of it has to do with being different and having a great meal to share. Please, make sure this is what you want before you purchase. Like I said, I use it and I love it.

I have an electric stove top(coil) and cook with the cover on the unused burners all the time. I would not place a hot pan/dish on the glass without a hot pad. That's why I had to purchase a replacement.

Only if you have a non electric stove, such as gas. This product can also be used on a camp fire, charcoal, or propane stove.

Yes you definitely can use it on either an electric or a gas stove top. Hope this helps.

Sorry, Maria, for being so late in answering this. I use mine with an electric stove and it works safely and most efficiently. It is sometimes much easier to use this than to fire up the outside grill and it tastes just as well, if not better. As I said, my only complaint is that it is hard to clean. If you have any other questions, please let me know

I have used mine on an electric stove with no problem. It has a flat bottom.

I bought it for that purpose -- to use on a butane camp stove when our electricity goes out. So yes, you can.

No you can not. If you have an electric stove, you'll have to get the one without the bottom part - this one only work on gas stove. Hope this helps.

I'm sure you can, even though I don't have a glass cooktop. It should work just as well as it does on my electric burners. Make sure you don't turn the heat up too high, though.

Gas is probably better for heat distribution. But electric burners will work as long as they make contact with the pan.

see a previous review that says NO electric hotplates are suitable for canning. It also says it barely stayed hot enough.Good for cooking, not for canning.
