Would someone please see if a magnet sticks to this pot, to tell if it can be used on an induction cooktop?

Yes, I have an induction stove and it works great. However, I put the teakettle on empty on high, and the glass-based enamel fused to the stovetop. Removing the teakettle removed a couple of big chunks of the stovetop, permanently damaging it. DON'T USE ANY ENAMEL WARE ON ANY GLASS OR CERAMIC TOPPED STOVE!

A magnet sticks any where it is placed on the "red" part of the kettle. Hope this helps.

Can someone please try to hold a magnet to the set and see if it sticks? If they dont stick, it will not work on an induction cooktop.

have not used on an induction cooktop but a magnet will attach to the bottom of the pot.

I do not believe so. Pans used on induction cooktops must be made of material that attracts magnets. This is because induction works through electromagnetism, so the pan must attract magnetic charges.I put a magnet to the bottoms of my Ecosolution pans and none will stick. Only a very expensive European pot I have would stick to the magnet.

If I understand it correctly, induction cookware must be able to "stick" with magnets. I just went and stuck a magnet on it and it "stuck" so if that is what you are asking then, yes, it is induction. I hope this answers your question.

A magnet sticks to it. I haven't tried it on my induction top yet. If a magnet sticks, it should work.

I don't know about induction stoves, but I checked this pan with a magnet, and it stuck. If you get the pan, enjoy it! I like mine a lot.

I have one. A magnet will not stick to the bottom and therefore it can not be use on an induction cook top.

Magnet sticks to bottom of pans! You are in business on the induction stove top. Good luck!

I believe it has to be magnetic to use on induction stovetops and I don't think that applies to this particular pot. I love mine but I don't have an induction stovetop.

No, it can't. I read "stainless steel" in the description and mistakenly assumed both pots were stainless and bought it. If I had seen it in a store I would have read the, "Suitable for all heat sources except induction" on the packaging. Just in case, I put a magnet to the base of the bottom pot and then confirmed it would not stick.

since you need special encapsulated bottom cookware which can be used on an induction stove top, a magnet must stick to the bottom of the stainless steel pan and only then will it really work on induction stoves and table top models. no one has yet really answered if a magnet sticks to the bottom of this pan, and since i bought only stainless steel cookware which magnets do stick on can i safely say my cookware is really induction usable.can someone who has this please place a magnet on the bottom and reply if the magnet stuck to the bottom of the pan so we really know if it is induction ready to be used on induction surfaces, and thanks in advance. since you need special encapsulated bottom cookware which can be used on an induction stove top, a magnet must stick to the bottom of the stainless steel pan and only then will it really work on induction stoves and table top models. no one has yet really answered if a magnet sticks to the bottom of this pan, and since i bought only stainless steel cookware which magnets do stick on can i safely say my cookware is really induction usable.can someone who has this please place a magnet on the bottom and reply if the magnet stuck to the bottom of the pan so we really know if it is... » Read More since you need special encapsulated bottom cookware which can be used on an induction stove top, a magnet must stick to the bottom of the stainless steel pan and only then will it really work on induction stoves and table top models. no one has yet really answered if a magnet sticks to the bottom of this pan, and since i bought only stainless steel cookware which magnets do stick on can i safely say my cookware is really induction usable.can someone who has this please place a magnet on the bottom and reply if the magnet stuck to the bottom of the pan so we really know if it is induction ready to be used on induction surfaces, and thanks in advance. « Show Less

No, the bottom is not magnetic. I don't see any reason it wouldn't work on an induction cooktop, but I don't have one so I can't say for sure. This is the best little pot I have. I use it all the time.

I don't have an induction cooktop, but I can most definitely say that a (refrigerator) magnet will stick to the bottom of this sauce pan.

NO. It does not work with an induction stove, nor does a magnet stick to the bottom.

NO this does not work on an induction cooktop! Hint #1 magnet does not stick to the bottom of pan. Hint#2: when placed on induction surface, the cooktop has trouble detecting an object. It may connect sporadically, but you will be lucky if the water gets warm.

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.
