Heat resistant? will it work on a stove top?

I used it on my stove on the edge where a pan had hit and made a nick in the white finish. It was near the burner (electric) but not on the stop top. It worked fine.

I have no idea about how it would work on an induction stove top. We have heating coils.

No. it isn't designed for the higher heat of the stove top. but I love it for keeping my microwave clean of spatter, & it washes up easily in the sink. makes a great inexpensive gift

Maybe, but it is small, covering only a small portion of the stove-top burner, and the metal is not as thick on the bottom as a normal pot because it is designed to use with a steam wand and not through direct contact with a high heat source. I wouldn't use it on the stove.

Yes, mam. I use mine on an electric stove top, but it could also be used on a gas burner.

I have only used it on gas top. It is a light metal and heats quickly. I would think it would work well.

I've never tríed using it on a stove top but wouldn't recommend it. The glass is fragile.

I have no idea - but I imagine it would because it seems to resist very high heat - I believe I put it in my oven at 400 . . . but am not sure . . anyway, it is a very good product - I often will use it on top of stove to cook things that would be cooked normally in oven because it holds the heat so well. Great product - am very happy with it.

My understanding, (per Crate and Barrel), is that the range server is heat resistant. But - only to be used on very low heat. I put mine on a single (electric) warming plate and at the most between 'Warm' and '1'. Maybe not even '1'. (Depends on the plate. Only once did I put it on '1' and it began to boil. 'Warm' was sufficient.) Doubt that you could put it on a gas stove unless you had a dedicated burner for ultra low heat.

Elizabeth, we use it on our glass cooktop and have had no issues. Hope this helps.

I think it would work fine just as long as you don't turn on the burners beneath. Would work best on a glass top stove. Hope this helps.

Yes, it will. I use mine on a ceramic stove top and it works just fine. Use your largest burner and don't turn the heat above medium.

Though I've never used it on a stove top griddle plate I don't see why it wouldn't work. After all this thermometer was designed to measure surface temperatures. For a definitive answer you might want to contact the Kingsford Company. Best wishes, The Scoot.

I do not think it will work on a ceramic cook top. It requires flames to contact the steel surface to distribute the heat properly. Without the flames, you wont get optimum cooking temps. They dont work great on gas cook tops either, unless they are high BTU burners. This is why I use it on an outdoor cooker meant for fish fry's and crab boils.

I never tried it on a glass top stove, but I don't think it would matter. Heat is heat.

I have an electric stove top I use, so I'm not positive. The metal is thin stainless steel, so I'd probably recommend medium to low heat with gas rather than high heat, but I think it would probably be fine.

I have only used mine on top of stove, I would think the handles will not stand up to oven heat they are not made of heat resistant material
