Ok, as someone who uses a glass-top stove to pressure can I can say a few things on the matter. 1) to the person above who is weighing (sorry about the pun!) Mirro vs Preso- they weigh about the same and therefore pose the same risk to your stovetop whether or not the box has a warning label, so its a moot point. 1.a) Mirro and Presto canners don't weigh any more than any other aluminum pot- the weight comes from the full jars of vegetables you are canning. If you already can with a water bath (or make large batches of soup), you've already weight tested your stove as much as you need to. Perhaps you could incur damage with fatigue, but it doesn't seem likely. Maybe old ceramic stove tops were more fragile, but mine is a 5 year old GE Profile- certainly not very fancy, but the worst damage I've done to it is sugar burns (and those buff out). 2) All-American canners are a different animal. They are awesomely and fearfully made. I long to own one. They weight quite a lot in their own right, and then you add water and cans. However, see above comment on water baths. Water is what, 8lbs/gallon? I've probably unintentionally load-tested my stove to 80lbs or more. 2.a) That said, my Mom cans with a very large All-American canner on a GE profile glass-top range, also about 4 years old. She has had no problems, and plans to continue. 3) In conclusion, you must make your own decision on what you want to do and risk, however, I've never had any problems. P.S. What happened to your tomatoes? I've never had any problems water canning them. Maybe I can help?

Yes it would work very effectively. I'd be very gentle with it though. I don't use it on my glass top stove, I find the regular Weimans which is easily found in stores to be quite good enough.

No. From the photos there will not be any flat even contact with the glass top stove. It won't heat correctly.

Yes I think so. My stove is ceramic but with gas top grills. The cookware is probably better suited for flat ceramic type heating systems because it works based on conduction heat but works with all types of stove tops. It is a heavy type of cookware. The bottoms are smooth other than the brand name imprint into the steel bottoms.

I have a Ceran (glass) stove top. It works great on that, as the pan is nice and flat. Hope this helps.

My experience is on a flat glass top stove. It works very well there. I couldn't be more pleased.

i use mine on a glass/ceramic GE flat top range. no problems after a year of use. however the burners do discolor from the bottom of the pans and from food spillage. it does clean up. so if induction heating is flat to stove then i guess ive answered your question.

Yes, I would use it on a glass top stove. It would sit over the element just like you would put a pot.We owned a glass top at one time and from my experience it would transfer heat into the saw dustsmoke product the same was a flame burner would do.My glass-top stove had no restriction about the type of cookware we used on it.If you are required to use ceramic on yours, I would consult the stove manufacturer.

It is flat, not sure if it works on glass, I'm not very familiar with those type of stoves

Yes, I have a glass top stove and it works perfectly. I honestly have not been this satisfied with a pan regardless of price. Buy and enjoy.

i'm using it on an electrolux flat top stove top. i think it's glass. the only thing i had to do (during first use), was to actuate the stopper a few times. it didn't rise up even though there was adequate steam and heat. after "unsticking", it has worked perfectly every time.

I am not sure...I have a gas range. It does work well for paella and I do not see any reason why it wouldn't work on a glass-ceramic top unless you have to you special cookware??

I've used the product only on glass top stove tops, if it would be used on porcelain I don't think it would harm itbut you could be risking it..
