Is the bottom smooth so it won't scratch my granite?

Yes it's smooth; but if I had granite I would glue rubber stops/protectors on the bottom just to be on the safe side.

It does have an unfinished ring around the outside; does not feel rough but would suggest felt pads to prevent the possibility of any scratches!

The bottom is smooth but indented so that the center does not make contact with the countertop. The edges are the slightest bit rough, like raw ceramic. This should not be a problem on granite, but if you're concerned, a few stick-on felt pads should do the trick.

I have had it for almost 3years. It is mounted under a granite counter top so i cant see it, but I can feel the back of it from under the sink and it feels rough. The front is smooth and shiny.

Yes, the bottom is smooth. It's stainless steel; accordingly, I think it would be attracted to a magnet. Hope this helps. Personally, I'm very pleased with this kettle.

No, it is not smooth, it is ribbed all across the surface. This is actually very large, I don't use it as much as I expected to.

It is smooth. There is a little rubber like surface to prevent slipping but it's smooth, not ridged.

Hi there, I apologize for delay in responding ... yes, the bottom is smooth & it has good heat distribution.

It works perfect in our S.S. sink and protects it from scratching... It has well made little feet so it will not scratch... I can't see why it wouldn't work well in your granite sink if it fits... We have been perfectly happy with ours...

The blade is recessed so that would not scratch a smooth surface. However, the outer metal circle does vibrate a bit and sounds like it is scratching the pot while it is on, if I let it hit the bottom of the pot. It's not necessary to touch the bottom of the pot and I've used it on non-stick surfaces and haven't had a problem, but haven't inspected closely.

Yes, the bottom is smooth. However, the weight of the bed would make it impossible to move.

Yes! it does have a rubber "cushioned" bottom and should not scratch if kept clean.

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!

It is completely smooth on the bottom. This works out great for me, makes it easier to clean.

Jill, textured and smooth... I would say that for the textured side, the raised shapes (circles and diamonds) were by injecting air from the back side (smooth side). However, from the smooth side all the "holes" from the circles and diamonds are visible and you can put your fingernail in these holes.They don't slip - doesn't matter which side is up or down. I have granite counters and no problems. I also use them in the fridge if I am forced to put a pot in that is still hot... I throw one of these in under the pot. For $8 or whatever it is, you can't go wrong.

It's light and smooth enough that I can't see it scratching the table. I have it on a Corian counter and didn't put any felt pads under it to protect the surface.

It is not completely smooth, but it's not "pebbly" either. I have several glass cutting boards to use next to my stove and sink, and this is the smoothest one I have. I just went to look at it again, and it's quite a bit smoother than my other ones.

You don't want to put a hot pan on it. It isn't granite. No scratched so far and looks great for the price

I have it on granite. They are metal but I don't think there would be much scratching unless it was forced hard. I love mine. It is so cute!
