Will this pot draw a magnet? Can it be used on an induction cooktop?

Besides putting a piece of metal under it which I would not pay over 100 bucks for , I would just go to a local metal yard scrap yard ... and buy a piece of 1/4 inch for a few bucks otherwise I would go to overstock dot com and buy what I did . A BC boil pot with the spigot . made for this stuff for 164 bucks but you would have to look around at them and make sure they were magnetic bottom as the one I have is not but is a great pot . That and the 1044 pot make brewing easier.

yes a magnet does stick to the bottom and that makes it good for induction stove

It cannot draw a magnet very well. We tried to get ours to draw a magnet, but had to take the pencils and markers away because it kept drawing images of breasts and butts while giggling.

Stainless steel will not attach to a magnet because of its alloys an metal composites

I took magnets off of my stainless steel fridge and I could NOT get them to stick to the pot. I did not try the middle of the bottom of the pot though, only the outer edges.

The answer is no. This coffee pot not magnetic and I it is not going to work with induction cook top/stove. For using with induction top you should try some "heavy gauge" cookware. It is usually pricey like Cuisinox Milano 6 cup Espresso Coffeemaker Cuisinox Milano 6 cup Espresso CoffeemakerFor cheaper solution you can try any enamel items, i.e. try to search Enamel Coffee Pot Enamel Coffee Pot medium no. 5 Hopefully I was helpful :)

Yes a magnet will stick to it. And it WILL work on induction cook top. Just an FYI this has NO whistle so when the water is boiling if you aren't looking at it, you may not know. But I LOVE mine and have had it for a couple of years now. I use it every day (big tea drinker) and it is not even close to requiring replacement.

After reading your question, I placed a magnet to the bottom of the pot and it did stick. So I would say yes, it would work with an induction stove top.

This cast Iron Pan is magnetic and it should work on an Induction cooktop. But I am not really sure that it works properly.

No, if a magnet will not stick to the bottom of the pan it will not work on an induction stove. This pan is all aluminum (no clad on the bottom) therefore will not work.

IF there isnt ANY steel on the bottom it will NOT work with the induction cooktop! We have a few induction burners and a magnet MUST stick/hold well to the bottom of the pot for it to work. IF this is a true stainless as the title says, it WILL NOT work on an induction burner.

Yes this kettle works on an induction cooktop. We bought it precisely for this reason and it works beautifully! It isn't that the bottom needs to be magnetic, but rather that the kettle bottom will respond to the magnetic field generated by the induction cooktop (this distinction is probably lost on most people). So if a magnet sticks to the bottom, or it says that it works with induction, it will work for your cooktop. Enjoy!

I don't have an induction cook top. But searching for how to check, multiple websites say to hold a magnet to the bottom and see how strongly it is attracted. I did that and the magnet was attracted just as strongly as against my refrigerator. That bodes well for an induction top. I'd recommend contacting Kitchen Aid directly and check with them.

If I understand how induction stoves work, then no. The pot is not magnetic (some stainless steels are not), and your stove would not be able to induce heat in said pot. Sorry for the delay

It can be used on an induction stove top. It is not magnetic, it's made out of copper with a tin lining.

I don't have an induction stove top, but I seem to remember that the test for whether a pot will work on an induction stove top is whether a magnet will stick to the bottom of the pot. If this is a true test, then yes, a magnet will stick to the bottom of the pot, therefore it should work on an induction stove top.

You might get a more accurate answer if you asked about an "induction cooktop" (assuming you just misspelled it) or, for those unfamiliar with induction technology, you could just ask if a magnet would stick to it.

I believe it has to be magnetic to use on induction stovetops and I don't think that applies to this particular pot. I love mine but I don't have an induction stovetop.

It should. I believe all induction cooktops function magnetically. I have a Duxtop cooktop and this cookware reforms well with it.

Can this tea kettle be used on a induction coil stove top? Will a magnet stick to it?

Yes, it can be used on an induction cooktop. I just checked and a magnet sticks to the bottom of the pot, which means it works with induction cooking.
