Can this pot be heated on an induction stove. Must be attracted by magnet.

I don't know the answer however it heats very quickly on a conventional burner.

It is the best fondue pot I've ever had, but a magnet will not stick to it.

It is not induction compatible. Magnet does not stick. The version with the aluminum insert, and a disk base, is induction compatible.

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.

A magnet does stick to the pan, so I am guessing that will tell you what you need to know, though I have not used it with an induction stove. (I hear that they are great -- do they get really hot? I could use that!)

As G. Taylor says, try using a magnet on the bottom of the pan. If it sticks then it SHOULD work on an induction stove (my mom had one when I was a kid and it only worked on pans that a magnet could stick to). I am pretty sure that this will not work because it is aluminum (and magnets do not stick to aluminum) so the pan can not generate heat.

I have an induction cooktop, and it works. As one of the previous reviewer stated, if a magnet will stick to it, it's induction compatible. I have noticed that it takes longer to heat than my cast iron does on the same setting.

Hi Lynda, unfortunately this Woll pan is not magnetic and can't be used for induction ovens. I read online some stainless steel pans or cast iron pots can be used, as long as the bottom is magnetic. Klaus

Yes, you can test any pot with a magnet. If the magnet sticks it will work on an induction cook top.

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.

Yes Lynda, I read your question and I tried a magnet and yes it does attract to magnets and so your to go and if you were wondering about the pot it's real nice, large enough to 24oz. I hope I answered your question. good luck.

Well, here's my answer. My knowledge with induction is somewhat limited (I use a vintage gas stove), but my understanding is that the surface of the bottom of the pot needs to have enough contact with the cooktop, which it would but for a fairly decent engraving of "18/10 stainless". I thought though (and I'm probably wrong but I did look it up on wikipedia and it advised so), that the pot also needs to be somewhat receptive to magnetism which it is not (I tested a magnet on the bottom of the pan). So that reviewer is probably right.

I have an electric stove. I do not have experience with induction surfaces. The bottom of the pot is perfectly flat without a design if that helps you make a decision. I've enjoyed my pot for making pasta sauces and soups.

I don't think so. I believe a magnet must stick to the bottom in order to work on an induction cooktop. A magnet does not stick to my Paula Deen cookware. However it is very nice cookware for conventional stoves.

I'm not sure. I don't have an induction stove. You'll have to contact the manufacturer of the pan.

No, because the pots are made of aluminum, which is not magnetic. Induction cooking uses magnetism to heat up the cookware, which in turn heats the food. These pots can be used on conduction stoves (gas and electric).

No, this cookware is not compatible with induction cooking. A magnet will not help. There is a symbol on the bottom on the cookware that looks like loops that is exclusive to cookware made for induction cooking. You can go on line to see what this symbol looks like. If the symbol is not there, then the cookware is not made for induction cooking.

A small magnet sticks so most likely the answer is yes --- I do not use an induction cooktop. Hope this helps...very nice non commercial pot.

The the inner stainless steel pot can be heated with the induction cooktop (I have). Works perfectly.No prob at all. I love my Thermos Thermal Cooker(i've used if for cooking soup, stew, effortlessly). Save electricity, effort, time.
