is this safe on a ceramic glass top stove?

Yes it is safe. Make sure to place it over the burner which is closest to the size of the base of the pot so heat is directly under and not around sides of pot. Also let it cool down before washing it. You will absolutely love it.

YES, we have a glass stove top and use it all the time with no problems. We LOVE this pan!

I have a ceramic topped stove and we just received this pan so I haven't used it. There are several warnings in the pamphlet included with the pan regarding ceramic topped stoves. It states that "overheating or allowing (porcelain enamel) to boil dry can make these pans fuse to the surface of the glass top ranges, requiring the replacement of the glass cook top". My husband says to "go for it", but I do worry about the heat required to stir fry. The pan rated highly, but I am a little worried.

Yes, you can use cast iron on glass top (ceramic) stoves but with some cautions. Cast iron is very heavy and if it is dropped onto to the surface it can crack it. Don't store heavy cookware like this in cupboards or shelves above this type of stove because it could easily be dropped and shatter the glass. Also avoid sliding any iron cookware around on the ceramic surface as this will scratch it. If you move the pan around, lift it and then place it back down. It's possible to purchase special protective cooking pads for glass top stoves at kitchen stores for use with high-heat cookware like cast iron. They are also placed under any cookware that may scratch the surface like this product. Sometimes people place cast iron on stoves with the flame or electric on to dry them after cleaning NEVER do this with a ceramic/ glass top stove, if you walk away and forget about the pan the glass top can get too hot and break. Last, cast iron does seem to work better on gas rather than electric stoves.

I don't know the answer to this. I have a gas stove top but I remember using my old pans in the past on ceramic. Not sure if it is the same.

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

I have used mine on a glass top stove for the last 2 years with no problem. I actually have 2 of these and as soon as one comes off to cool I have the other one ready to go. Hope this helps you....

I have a gas stove, but I have had a ceramic cooktop before I had my Circulon pots and pans and even used iron skillets on it. They (ceramic cooktops) are quite durable. I think it would be fine if you, as a previous reviewer stated, do not drag them across the glass. I love my Circulon!

We don't have the answer to that question. Suggest you check with the manufacturer. Have never used on a glass top stove. Good Luck.

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 don't see why not; but I'm not an expert. I think you just have to be careful to use the right cookware on ceramic tops, not regular electric stoves.

I do not know. I've used it carefully on my glass stovetop and it was no problem. It is big and heavy and we usually use it on our grill for pancake breakfast on the deck.

I don't see why not. It heats wonderfully and so far everything I've made has come out great. I was not aware that there are certain cookware that should NOT be used on a ceramic top .....interesting. You'll LOVE this piece !!

Hello, yes, I use this skillet on a ceramic glass top. However, I would highly advise against sliding the skillet on the cooktop. Hope this helps!

I don't see why it can't be. I've used it on my gas stove top just fine. It's all stainless on the exterior so that it can go into the oven from the stove top. The only thing that might make it not work with a ceramic stove top is that the quality of the pan makes it not as flat on the bottom as it could be. The heat transfer might be lost if the pan isn't flat enough to contact the ceramic. It's a very cheap set of pans.

I use with a gas stove but believe they would be safe on a glass top but don't know for sure
