Hi, I'm interested in this product. Can it be used over induction stove top as an adapter plate for non-induction cookware? How's the transfer of heat

I don't see how it could be used that way, no. I ordered one for that same purpose assuming it was a solid plate, but this is a stamped steel disc with a raised rim for it to slip over a conventional burner. The only way I could see it working on an induction cooktop would be to place it upside down and then use a pan or pot that is smaller than the raised rim.

You may want to check the description of the pan. I don't think it's reccomended for induction stove tops.

I'm not too sure. I'm assuming if it can be used on a regular stovetop why not an induction top. My husband said to check with your stove manual or contact the manufacture or dealer. That is probably the best way to find out. I'm sorry if I wasn't much help.

Not sure; I would not think it would do a good job on an induction stovetop. Just my opinion

I've used it on an electrical coil style stove top. It works, but I could tell there were some initial cold spots. After waiting the colder region got hot enough to work fine. It just takes a bit longer to warm up all the way through. NOTE: It is cast iron...you can't just crank up the stove to heat up the pan....it HAS TO BE done slow...the electrical coils only transfer heat at their contact points and if you crank it up...the contact points will get hot while other portions of the pan will be cold and cast iron will warp.

Yes, I was able to use it on induction cook top. The pan did not last me more than around 8 usage though because it started sticking even when there were no scratches on the surface at all. I ended up returning mine.

I checked the pan for you and NO it can NOT be used on an induction stove, you need to find a pan with a magnetic grade of stainless steel, if a magnet sticks to the outside of the pan on the area tha touches the stove then you can use it. AGAIN:: THIS PAN WILL NOT WORK ON INDUCTION STOVE TOPS.

We nevertested it spesificly with an induction cooker but it is working like every other pan that react to a heat source... We assume it will work fine it not very different then fire for our understanding. I hope thet helped :)

I use it on glass cooktop which is completely flat. the heat spreads evenly. I am not sure if that is considered an induction stove top

If the stove gets hot you can cook with it. You'll probably have hot spots and cool spots depending on where the burners are, but I've used it to good effect on both gas and electric. Never tried induction or one of those glass flat top stoves so I can't vouch for those.

Hmmm-- I don't know if it can be used on an induction cooker, whatever that is. The bottom is not magnetic though. I bought it because it was non teflon. I had to bite the bullet because of the price, but am glad I did. It is sturdy enough and I use it all the time, but only for poached eggs. I found it disappointing that there were so few similar offerings in stainless steel.

No, this is not for an induction cooktop or burner. The construction is nearly 100% aluminum, which is not magnetic.

I have used it as a heat diffuser / induction disk. It works best for simmering - such as for rice, oatmeal, and sauces.But if the saucepan you place on this skillet is smaller than 10", you lose too much heat. If the pan is too small, it might cause the induction cook top's safety mechanism to shut down the cook top. So, match the skillet size to the saucepan size.

Hi Heidi, yes it definitely works on an induction stove top. I use this on my induction stove top. Mine has a huge burner that I thought I would never have a pan large enough to use the burner with. Well this pan fit the bill. I like to use the lid as a skillet. It works very well.

I need that information about being used for induction cooktops. In store shopping, I have to use a magnet to see if the magnet sticks to bottom. Cast iron works, the Cuisinart ten-pc. step (Amazon.com) stated in write up that it was for induction cooktops. I don't want to order items from Amazon.com and find out after the fact that they aren't for induction cooktops. I am looking for a tea pot for my cooktop now. Just would be extremely helpful if advertisers would say in their write-ups it the product is for induction cooktop. My house burned down this past summer and we are rebuilding and I am getting the induction cooktop and double ovens, one of which is convection. So, I will be learning how to cook with them, and with the added problem of what pans work on them is a challenge. Thanks, Suzanne Martin, Amazon.com customer

I use this wok on my induction cooktop, and it works perfectly. Since cast iron cookware tends to be thicker than most other types of cookware it allows for better even heating.

I have no idea about how it would work on an induction stove top. We have heating coils.
