Can the stove be hand-stoked if the electricity goes out?

No. But it's pretty easy to rig up a battery back up with a small inverter and a car/boat battery.

Yes, I would rather use an electric stove with these because the handles get very very hot on a gas stove. My daughter has burned her hands several times using these pots and pans.

Alex, This model does have electronic ignition for the burners so you would have manually light one during a power outage. Most gas ovens can not be operated without power since both the ignition and the temperature regulation is electronically controlled.

I have a gas stove, but I don't see any reason why it can not be used on electric. It is very sturdy and good quality. I luv it.

Dear Tammie G, the little squiggly sign is not on the bottom of the pot so I would have to say no, but is till a great go-to pot for both electric and gas stoves, hope that answered your question fully sincerely, ~Mark~

Yes. The stove we use is electric, but the material that the pan is made of distributes the heat evenly across the bottom of it. Hope that helps!

Absolutely!Gas, electric, glass top, induction, open fire pit (watch the handle) -

I'm actually not sure I have a regular electric stove. I would guess it would be of but I wouldn't have it on extreme heat since those pans can get very hot.

I wouldn't use it to heat my house for sure but as long as you have a window or door cracked a couple inches for ventilation it would be okay to cook a meal or make some coffee in an emergency power outage. Just keep it on low heat to reduce emissions and don't leave unattended or take a nap with it left on, you may not wake up. ;-)

yes you can use it on an electric stove, don't forget to oil it well before each use.

I think it would cause the wire grid at the bottom of the stove to overheat and bend. Even using wood as fuel causes some distortion of the grid.

My mistake. I turned the stove on by accident and ruined the "board." It melted.

I would not attempt to use the unit without electricity. The unit works like a forced air heating system. You have the burner train and air is force through the flames to produce heat at the outlet.

I have an electric stove, but it seems quite well constructed. I see no reason why it wouldn't hold up.

Yes, but be careful not to let it boil dry or boil over as this can damage both the pan and the stove.

Sure, just leave the hot disconnected or off. I have mine in an outdoor kitchen

Possibly? I would test that hypothesis on a non flamable surface first, because the entire stove will probably get to hot for safe, long turn use.
