Hi, I bought this item .I don't have an induction stove so I searched here http://www.ask.com/wiki/Induction_cooking and it told me the metal must be made of ferromagnetic metal so being I didn't know exactly what that was I searched again here http://www.school-for-champions.com/science/magnetic_materials.htm#.VE-gmvl4pcQ So I would say anything that a magnet sticks to good would work according to what I have read,for your future purchases it is the best way to tell .I took a magnet to the set in question and it sticks real good too.So I believe it it a go.Ted

No I have not, I do not see why it would be a problem though. Start at a lower heat. It is a flat bottom pot. Good Luck! I have used this pot a lot. Thought I would use it just for canning season but it is my go to pot for a lot of things.

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.

Yes, it works great on induction. Heats up fast and evenly. Very thick bottoms.Updated note: I have noticed that this set has changed since it was first pictured. At first, some said the large deep fryer was all stainless, not non-stick. Then some said it was changed to non-stick. Now some reviewers are saying some of the set is not compatible with induction. I love my WearEver cookware. Built to last and even my non-stick pan is still in perfect condition after 5 years.

Other commenter is correct. I tested with a magnet also and it did not stick, therefore this pot will not work with induction.

It absolutely can be used on an induction burner. I've used mine on a cook-top with induction burners countless times. Also, a magnet will stick to the bottom of the pot. I hope this helps.

Sorry I am not familiar with an induction cooktop, I use it on coil burners. Works Great.

While I have not used it myself on an induction cook top, the instructions that came with the pressure cooker indicate that it can be used on all cooking surfaces, including induction cook tops.

Yes, it can be used on an induction cooktop. I just checked and a magnet sticks to the bottom of the pot, which means it works with induction cooking.

I use it very successfully on my glass top stove...not sure what induction is.

The Stove Tamer is not ferromagnetic, so it won't work on an induction stovetop. Do you like using an induction stovetop? I always thought they were a good idea but have not seen one in action.

hello. I was not sure so I looked on the web on this site and it indicates it is fine for induction cook top. Ours has worked great on electric and propane cook tops. http://www.fagoramerica.com/cookware/pressure_cookers/splendid_line/splendid

Sorry to contradict some of the other answers but... yes... you can use it on an induction cooktop... but with these caveats: This is an aluminum cooker so you would have to put a steel or iron "cooking plate" under it, the induction coil heats up the steel/iron plate which then heats up the pressure cooker, we do this with a couple of nice aluminum pans that we like to use but don't work with induction. AND... be aware that this is one heavy mother of a cooker so you might need to test your induction cooktop to see if it will handle the weight...

I honestley don't know anything about an induction cooker. I don't see why not though.

I do not have an induction burner, but I think the test to see if the cookware will work on induction is to check and see if a magnet sticks to the bottom. So I tried that, and the magnet did NOT stick to the bottom. It was a pretty strong magnet. So I assume it won't work on induction. That is all I know. Hope this helps.....Pat Woods

Yes, it says in the instructions that it's suitable for induction heaters. I have been very pleased with mine. A very well made pressure cooker.

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 use mine on an electric coil stove, on the small burner. I don't know if it is suitable for an induction stovetop.
