Whirley Pop Stovetop popcorn popper: Is it ok to use it on a glass cooktop?

I just got one for Christmas and it works great on my glass cooktop, just preheat the cooktop before starting.

Yes, it is perfectly safe on a glass stove top because that electric stove is what I use the pan on.

i use on a glass top stove with no problem. I wonder if it I would be more successful seasoning it on a gas stove with flame. But don't know.

Works fine on a glass top stove (which is what I have). The instructions included with the pot say just don't shake or move around the pot while cooking (for any stove kind, not just glass), and also not to preheat the burner before cooking like another person suggested. You're supposed to start with a cold burner, put the oil/popcorn seeds in, put the pot on the burner/turn burner on, and slowly turn the handle from start to finish. Takes about 2-3 minutes, is fun, and super easy to wipe clean after the pot cools.

Sorry Monica, I don't know what a whirly popper is. I bought this oil for a basic counter-top popper with a dome cover. The oil works well in that thing and also if you are doing stove top popping.

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

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.

You should be able to use the popcorn popping oil on the stove - I don't know why you wouldn't be able to.

This is not a good idea for a stove top or a hot plate, you should use a stand wire grid with flame for heat adjustment for this glass wear. Reason I say that is heat absorption for the surface may not be sufficient to keep it from cracking the Corning Pyrex base.. If you do you better test it with water with salt and keep an eye on it. Be ready to shut it down if it cracks.

From what I have read, they do not recommend using iron cookware on glass top stoves. I gave all of mine to my son, who has a gas stove. I bought this item for him for Christmas. However, my brother-in-law does use his on a glass top stove all the time, so I guess it's up to the individual. I had to give my son some other cookware that wasn't even on the bottom and was wearing away all the little dots on my cooktop.

I think it would work fine. There's no moving of the pot, just turning the handle. As long as the pot gets hot, the popcorn will pop, and you'll turn the handle to keep it from burning. It's great. We love ours. It stays on the stove all the time! And, I bought another one for the lake house.

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

Being stainless steel, there should be no problem as long as the bottom is flat. It will be slower than gas but just wait til the oil is hot before adding popcorn.

Yes, you can use this item on a glass top surface which was designed to be a part of a cook stove.

There is no reason this cannot be used on a glass stove top. Cooks evenly. I love my grill pan and use it almost every night.
