Is the bottom (that is in contact with the stove) smooth or ridged? I have a glass top stove and do not want to scratch it.

Smooth. I do not have a glass top but an electric one with those circular eyes. I so like woking. I plan to buy a portable cooktop to take outside to keep heat out of the kitchen during summer months. Have fun.

It is smooth, but woks dont work well on glass top stoves. they need the heat of the flame coming up the side to cook all the way around. They tend to take a high amount of heat on them and glass tops only put heat on the bottom/touching surface.

The flat part of the bottom is smooth, the rest of the outside has ridges v

Yes it does have a flat bottom. I've had a glass top stove for several years, and no scratches.

The bottom is flat ,but there is a half inch indentation around the edge . I use it on a glass top stove and have no problems.

The bottom is smooth. I really like mine. One of the sides, in the frame, was a little bent in shiping but I straighten it and no problems.

The bottom is formed not machined. I use it on a glass top stove and it sits flat with no problem with warping. So far.

The bottom is fairly smooth, it reminds me of vinyl record. I have a new LG stove with the ceramic cooktop and have not had any problem.

Yes, ma'am, it will work! I also have a flat glass stove-top and have had no problems with scratches. The bottom of the pan IS speckled like the rest of the outside of the pan, but it's coated well enough that it won't cause scratches. Hope you love it as much as I do! :)

I have a glass cook top and have no problem with scratching. The pan stays flat at higher temps. I love it.

I have the GE Profile ceramic top and decided not to use it. The bottom is grooved and would easily scratch your surface. I took it to a vacation home and use it happily on my gas range top.

I use it on a glass top stove, and have had no problems. It might scratch in the long run, but I haven't seen it yet.

The flat is smooth. I have a white electric glass top, and it hasn't scratched or broken it. It is pretty heavy so be careful when you place it down or move it around

I do not have a glass cook top but the surface of the kettle on the bottom is smooth. I don't think it would scratch the glass top. If I had a glass top, I would still get the kettle.

It hasn't left any scratches or marks on a glass cooktop in my experience. I would be careful not to use the very highest heat levels just because these stoves get so hot they can eventually wear down the nonstick surface.

The bottom surface is smooth and sliding is not a problem. I have used this skillet many times, mostly as an omelet pan, and it is a very high quality cooking tool. I would not want to be without it!

The bottom has scored circle patterns across the entire surface. I do not know if it would scratch the surface on your stove. I'd ask your manufacturer or hope another user has the same type of stove surface. Someone asked the same question on another in their line http://www.amazon.com/cookware-without-scratching-glasstop-stoves/forum/Fx1R8IFJ4ZR385B/Tx2WMLKJDMU3QVY/1/ref=cm_cd_dp_aar_al_a?_encoding=UTF8&asin;=B009L16ZBM Hope this helps.

Yes, they are smooth. I do not think they will scratch the stove top. The pans are really very nice for the money.
