I personally wouldn't , I use a regular pot to boil the water, that way it can boil all it wants without me having to worry. Amazon even has a "Medelco 12-Cup Glass Stovetop Whistling Kettle" <- That, I use to boil water. It's less than $10, solid as a rock. I can hear it all over the house. I use it for teas, coffee, cooking and so on! Boil water in something else to be safe.

yes, but not super hottest setting. I have gas. going on 2nd one first one broke. Take little getting used to using hot pad for handle & another hot pad to lift top off then to pour very gently not set on cool tile but back on stove.

I would think so. The glasstop (flat) stoves are safer for pots like this than coils, and I use it on coils. Just don't put in on the highest setting. If glass heats up too fast it shatters. Be careful about temp changes. I heat mine on med-high and remove it when the boiling starts, and set it on a wood cutting board right after, so it cools slowly. Or you could put it back on the eye depending on the tea temp needed. Just be graceful and careful with it.

Not sure but I would imagine anything made of glass placed on a hot stove may not be the best idea. I always boil the water in a kettle first then transfer it to the teapot for serving/keeping warm.

I don't know. I have always just put it in the microwave oven to heat the water.

I use it on a gas stove, but the bottom is very flat and should work well on a glass-top electric.

No, I use it on my flat surface electric stove. However, I do use a metal rack to keep it off the surface.

Yes you definitely can use it on either an electric or a gas stove top. Hope this helps.

Yes, it can be used on an electric stovetop. It's stainless steel with a plastic stem to be able to handle it.

Yes it has a flat bottom. I have an electric stove and it works just fine with my electric burners.

I used it on a gas stove; I think it should work fine on any heating surface. I has a wide base and is flat, as I recall.

i use mine on a glass/ceramic GE flat top range. no problems after a year of use. however the burners do discolor from the bottom of the pans and from food spillage. it does clean up. so if induction heating is flat to stove then i guess ive answered your question.

I Have a flat Top Stove. It Will Work on Any Stove as The bottom is Flat. Just Put it on a Smaller Burner and It Should Be Fine!

Yes. I've used it at my sisters house on an electric stove and it worked great. She did have a flat top on her stove though. This pan is hollow underneath so as long as the outside rim of the pan fits on the heating element you'll be OK. If you have a coiled heating element that's small you might have to put a flame tamer or something wider on it to rest the pan on. This is a heavy cast iron pan which in my opinion works the best. I like it a lot. It's definately worth the purchase. When you make them use unsalted butter in the pan. I found that salted butter makes them taste too salty. Enjoy. Yes.

It should work on electic stove top. Can't really answer the second question as it depends on amount of food you cook. It is a decent size though.

I have had no issues with using them on flat top electric stoves. Just have to use a lower temp.

It should be fine to use on electric stove top, just make sure you get correct size to match your stove dimensions. I know some reviews said it didn't fit we'll on electric stove top. I would recommend purchasing the smaller pan size griddle.

Only for a gas stove. Electric no good as it doesn't sit perfectly flat. Wouldn't even boil water...

It does have a flat bottom vs a rounded bottom so I suppose it can be used on a glass stove. However, I don't know how well it will cook on a glass or electric range vs a gas range. That said I think it does a fantastic job on a gas range.
