can be used on induction stove?

I have not yet tested this...however, the pot is stainless steel which should work on a induction surface. As long as the steel is of magnetic grade. I can go and see later if a magnet will stick to the pot's bottom. If it doesn't work though, you can also purchase a interface disk which enables non-induction cookware to be used on induction cooking surfaces. My guess however, is that it would work.

Since I don't have an induction stove I don't know the answer to your question. Have you tried the FAQ's on the Calphalon site?

You may have "normal" pots and pans that work. The easiest way to see is try sticking a magnet to your pot, if it sticks it will work on an induction stove. Cast iron pans will work, most stainless steel pots and pans will work, copper pans will not work.

Yes. I have an induction stove and it's perfectly fine. In fact, if you check on the back you will see that it says "induction suitable" or something like that.

Yes, I use it on an induction stove. Best pan I ever bought. You can cook a fried egg on it and it won't stick, not even the slightest.

I don't see why not as not cast iron bottom and from what I understand that is the only cookware they don't let you use on an induction stove. I have the old electric coils stove but figure it works same on other. Hope this helps somewhat.

If I understand how induction stoves work, then no. The pot is not magnetic (some stainless steels are not), and your stove would not be able to induce heat in said pot. Sorry for the delay

Inside pan is not magnetic, so can't be used on induction stove tops. However, the bottom is just 'okay' to use on regular electric or gas stoves, because it has a smallish (approx. 2" diameter) flat area on bottom of otherwise rounded pan bottom.

I don't know. I do not have an induction stove. It is a metal pot. If an induction stove works with metal, it should work with this.

Yes, It can be used on an induction cooktop. That's what I have....and that's what I cook on. Feel free to buy...I can assure u, u will love it, like I do :-)

I can't give a definitive answer, but my guess is no. This is from Wikipedia:"Stainless steel pans will work on an induction cooking surface if the base of the pan is a magnetic grade of stainless steel. If a magnet sticks well to the sole of the pan, it will work on an induction cooking surface." &"Aluminum or copper alone does not work on an induction stove because of the materials' magnetic and electrical properties"

I have not tried it on an induction stove as I have not used one of those yet, but reading about those stoves I found these as a short form of guide for whether some cooking device will work with it: "Cast iron pans and any black metal or iron pans will work on an induction cooking surface." (on Wikipedia) and "Your cast-iron skillet is a sure bet, and much of your stainless steel should work fine, too. If you aren't sure if your cookware will work, simply hold a magnet to the bottom of it. If it sticks, you're in business." - I quickly double-checked the pan with a magnet, and it definitely stuck to it. So yes, it should work on induction stoves.

Theoretically speaking, not really, since it's cast aluminum, which is not magnetic. The magnetic field generated by the induction cooker will travel too far in aluminum and also result in very little resistance, which is needed to generate heat. However, I have never tried it on an induction stove. If there's a thin layer of iron or steel imbedded in the pot, then it will work well, otherwise you'll be wasting your electricity.

NO! It can not be used on induction - so sad. I ordered a whole set based on previous answers, but should have looked closer - the first answer said they have an induction type stovetop. It does NOT work on my induction stovetop.

I have a gas stove -- but I don't see any problem with using it on an induction stove top.

I have no knowledge or experience regarding induction cooking ... sorry I cannot answer your question.

I use this item on an electric stovetop. I do not have an induction-surface stovetop and have never used this item on one, so I don't know.
