CorningWare Cornflower & L'Echalote cookware from 1970's: Was it stovetop safe like these? Looks the same. I never knew it was for stovetop.

It is safe to use on the stovetop. I cooked with Corning Ware for over thirty years on a gas top stove and now I'm cooking with it on an electric top stove and it still works very well.

Yes all Corning/Corelle pans and casserole dishes are safe for stovetop, oven or microwave :) Let me know if you have any other questions!

Definitely CorningWare Cornflower cookware (new and not just from 1970s) is stovetop safe. That's the versatility of using it.

The wonderful old CorningWare Cornflower was definitely Ok for stovetop as well as oven, microwave, refrigerator and dishwasher.

I guess very few people remember that Corning Ware came onto the market as home cookware after it had been created for use in the nose cones of rockets and missiles during the 1970's. It was available in many different sizes and shapes for stove top and oven cooking. My mother had a stove top Corning Ware percolator that she barely ever used since she thought that instant coffee was just so convenient and modern. Corning Ware was considered a "modern marvel" since it could go from freezer to oven or to stove top.

I have some of my Farberware pots for over 50yrs. I still use them and the only time food burns is when I have the heating setting too high and I forget the pot on the stove! If you may do the same, in cleaning the pot,pour some white vinager and let it stand and the pot will look like new!! Just purchased a 3qt pot and love it!! Jeanne

I would think so for Corning Ware if it's oven/burner safe. Personaly I think this thing has become a waste of money as it defeats the purpose of an induction burner and limits your use of whatever pot or pan isn't magnectic. It loses true heat and takes just as long on a regular burner.

I have a pet bird as well, and have been searching for a "safe" set of cookware. From the research I've done these do not have Teflon. The main hazardous off-gassing components are PTFE, PFOA, and cadmium, of which this set is free of. From what I can tell they are the safest pots & pans set at this price point.

I'm sorry, this is the new CorningWare (Corning ll) it CAN NOT go on the stovetop. If you want something that can go from oven or freezer to stovetop you need the old Corning, which you can get used at garage sales etc.

Anchor Hocking is Pyrex. My beloved old Pyrex 9x13 exploded in the oven the other day. I've done a ton of research and think I'll just bite the bullet and get stoneware, since this is very common (found a site with over 1400 Pyrex explosion stories. I'll still use my large Pyrex collection for food storage, but that's it. No more heat. I also learned Pyrex changed the glass formula, but finding old ones on ebay or elsewhere won't work either, since they may have invisible cracks, which also causes them to explode. Just not worth it.

Gee, Terry, I really don't know where my documents related to the cookware set is...sorry. But, what I would do is go to the Cuisinart website to find out or Google it. I wish I could help you out. MK

Our 1st stove was a glass top before we moved. They worked just as great as our coil dies now.

Allow me start with our pan is still holding up very well. The pan may be safe in the dishwaser, but alas we still hand wash dishes. We do not have a ceramic stovetop just good ole electric burners.

Awwww, don't give up. I just googledcookware for ceramic stovetop and it came back with "All-Clad" and "Calphalon" are good bets since they are heavy, flat bottomed cookware. You're going to pay dearly for them, they are some of the highest priced cookware out there. Good luck with your cookware-search.

I was worried about this, too. All the research I did calmed me down a lot. Even if there are trace amounts of lead in the earthenware crock itself, the glazing, if it's not pitted anywhere, should protect the food and anyone who eats it. I feel safer using my crock pot than I do using those old aluminum pots and pans I got ages ago, and used a lot, and which I have gratefully retired....

I did a lot of reviews on these before I bought them and from everything I read, they were safe to use on the glass top stove. THat being said, when I moved from our apartment to our house, that was my one requirement....no glass top. So I don't have them to confirm they won't ruin the pans, but again I did a lot of research and didn't find anything about that. I will say that I LOVE this set!!!

I've had this pot for over 40 years and use it all the time. It has been on a hot stove for hours with soups, sauces, etc. and I seem to remember that it is oven-proof, but you would do better to talk directly with Farberware for an answer.

I would NOT recommend using this dish on the stove top .....it is intended for baking purposes....and does a wonderful job!!! I use glassware almost exclusively on my ceramic stove top and oven [Vision for example]....and I have a Pyrex double boiler that is over 20 years old, and has a small metal ring that goes underneath, and has served me faithfully........glass is WONDERFUL to cook with......but always check the labels for specifics!!!!!!!

That makes more sense! I had a glass cooktop in my apartment, but when we moved into our house it had a gas stove and it made my day! My housewarming present to myself was this set, which is how I know they work well with gas. Sorry I can't be of more help with regard to how they work on the glass :( I personally think those things are the devil and will never have one again.

I remember reading that, but I don't know if it's true. I bought it anyway. I think it's fantastic. Vollrath is an excellent brand going way back to the late 60s when in my late teens I bought a set of Vollrath pots and pans. Still have them, and I can't imagine I will ever replace them because they're made so well. They are perfect for using with the Vollrath induction burner. I'm sorry I couldn't give you a better answer. Perhaps if you go directly to Vollrath you can get a better answer.

Dear TJ, the Le Creuset website states that one can use their cookware on a glass top stove. Great, isn't it? They just state the obvious, that you should lift the pot, while moving it on the stove top, not slide it. You know that it could scratch the glass, I'm sure. Cheers, Marsha
