I wouldn't try it because you will still have metal to glass contact. You can use ceramic coated cast iron on a glass cooktop. We use a ceramic coated Dutch oven on ours with no problems. Hope this helps.

The literature that comes with Lodge cast iron says it's suitable for glass cooktops, but warns not to slide the cookware. That makes sense, because cast iron is very heavy. I use my cast iron on my glass cooktop and have had no problems, but I'm very careful to set it down gently, and I try not to slide any kind of cookware on it to avoid scratches.Cast iron retains heat a long time, so take care to not use too high a heat setting, as it won't cool back down as quickly as other pots do. You might want to try a slightly lower heat setting than you normally use at first.

Yes, you can use cast iron on glass top (ceramic) stoves but with some cautions. Cast iron is very heavy and if it is dropped onto to the surface it can crack it. Don't store heavy cookware like this in cupboards or shelves above this type of stove because it could easily be dropped and shatter the glass. Also avoid sliding any iron cookware around on the ceramic surface as this will scratch it. If you move the pan around, lift it and then place it back down. It's possible to purchase special protective cooking pads for glass top stoves at kitchen stores for use with high-heat cookware like cast iron. They are also placed under any cookware that may scratch the surface like this product. Sometimes people place cast iron on stoves with the flame or electric on to dry them after cleaning NEVER do this with a ceramic/ glass top stove, if you walk away and forget about the pan the glass top can get too hot and break. Last, cast iron does seem to work better on gas rather than electric stoves.

Yes, it works great. I have used on my electric glass cooktop. Just use the largest burner.

Yes, we use it on our ceramic glass cooktop. Agree with other writer about it cracking if placed while hot on a cool surface. That's how we lost our first visions.

I just used mine on my glass top cooktop over the holiday weekend. It worked fine.

I don't think so. Its glass. Would you use glass on ceramic cook top? I only use to fill with boiling water.

I have been using mine on a smooth glass cooktop without any problems. Works great!

I wouldn't imagine it would be a good fit for a glass cooktop. It is heavy iron- might scratch your stove. I'm thinking it wouldn't conduct the heat as well as it does on a gas range, either.

Yes, definately. The nice thing about the cuisinart pans is they are truely flat on the bottom so excellent for the glass cook top, which I use it on. Much better than the Caphalon skillet which is not.

Yes, it can be used on a glass-top stove. The Signature series and the Professional series, in my opinion, is the only series to buy as they are the BEST!!!!!

I used it on a glass top stove. Yes. I soaked it and baked per the instructions. It works great but you must season it. Food luck.

Yes. It can be used just like any other skillet on any cooktop, except for the flat glass type. They don't recommend it for that. It's great to cook cornbread in the oven also!

I don't know if you suppose to our not but I will use it on my glass cooktop. I have always used my old fashion iron skillet to fry chicken, etc. on my cooktop and my stove is 14 years old and I have not had any problems so far. I do cook a lot too.

Yes, it can be use on a glass cooktop with no problem. I remove the red cover on the handle and use it in a 425 degree oven. I've not used it in a higher oven, but you may be able to.

Yes it is okay to use on glass stove top . I've had mine over a year now no problems of any kind and it still looks brand new!
