Still wondering if this will damage a glass top stove?

Yes. The duration of high heat needed to preserve food is too long for a glass-top range to handle. The enamel may actually adhere to the surface of the range.

I have a new ceramic flat-top electric stove and the manual says DO NOT use glass cookware on this type of stove. It will scratch the surface.

i would not recommend it. Will it scratch your glass? Maybe, or maybe not. However what I would be very concerned about is the weight of this canner when full of water and canning jars. It very well could collapse your stove top due to the heavy weight. I use mine on an outdoor propane burner, and have not problems. Another concern I would have on a stove top, is that water weight is 8 lbs. per gallon. Are you strong enough to get this thing onto your stove top, or off of it for that matter? Also, it has no handles to lift it with. In my opinion, DO NOT USE THIS ON A GLASS TOP STOVE!

I bought this pot. I too have a glass top stove. It is larger than the largest eye of the stove. I use it and nothing has happened (so far). It works fine. Go with your "gut" feeling.

I use mine on a glass stovetop and it's great. It doesn't scratch the top and vice versa.

I have a ceramic topped stove and we just received this pan so I haven't used it. There are several warnings in the pamphlet included with the pan regarding ceramic topped stoves. It states that "overheating or allowing (porcelain enamel) to boil dry can make these pans fuse to the surface of the glass top ranges, requiring the replacement of the glass cook top". My husband says to "go for it", but I do worry about the heat required to stir fry. The pan rated highly, but I am a little worried.

I have a glasstop stove and use them with no problem. I don't shake the pan when cooking or anything silly, but with just general use, there isn't a mark left

I use it on my gas stove all the time. I don't see why it wouldn't work on a glass top. My knobs are on the bottom, and it still works. It's an awesome way to increase counter space!

I'm not having any problem with mine. I also have a glass stovetop. No suggestions.... Except to enforce to warranty.

I canned on a glass cooktop without any problems. The big problem is the differential in heat on the stove top that causes it to crack, part of it getting very hot and other part not hot. If you keep the whole stovetop (all the burners) hot, it prevents cracking.

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 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 a glass/ceramic stove top and we leave the glass covers on top of the stove when we use the Oven. There has been no problem.

I don't think I would use it on a glass top because it could scratch it. I use it on my gas stove know that I finally have one.

no. I have a glass top stove about 11 inches and it works great and has not hurt my stove top

Just don't move it / shake it - it will / does scratch a glass cooktop. (I know from personal experience.)

If you mean a Glass top stove, the answer is "Yes". We've used ours for on a glass top for three years now. We use a modicum of care when moving the pot around so as not to scratch the surface.
