I use a Nu-Wave Induction cooktop. I need to know if this wok is magnetic. Thanks

I tried a magnet on the wok itself and the ring it sits on. On both items the magnet stuck. The lid is just aluminum and the magnet did not stick on there. I hope this answers your question.

Well I googled it and the Manufacturers website doesn't have ANY info about it, I use a gas stove so I don't want to give you bad information. The bottom is very smooth and level if that matters and I'm sure it does. Just saw someone said no it's not magnetized, induction sounds complicated lol.

Yes. It is beautiful and a great value. We bought this for our granddaughter who needed it in her apartment at Sam Houston State University. She has both Nu Wave oven and induction cook top so she needs magnetic cookware. She loves it and I am confident this will be the foundation for her cookware for years to come.

I use it on my GE radiant cooktop which is different from an induction. I went to a GE site where it said the pan would need to have some iron in the bottom to work on an induction cooktop. This pan will not let a magnet stick to it (the test for iron content). http://www.geappliances.com/products/introductions/induction_cooktops/how.htm

Hi - I don't have an induction cooktop, so I can't be certain. However, I did read once that if a magnet sticks to your pan, that it will work on an induction cooktop. So, I just tried it and a magnet did stick to the one I have. As I said in my review, I can't honestly recommend this item, but maybe it will work better for you. I hope that helps!

i don't know, Sue. i have a nu wave roaster, i think that is what it is called, you know like an oven...but i know nothing about the induction products....i think they take a pan that is of a special construction, and/or unique materials, and must be magnetic or something for the induction method to work.....i just roast and stuff like that on my device....i hope that this was of some help...just going by what i read somewhere, but give it a try and let me know as i have been thinking of getting one.......ej.

I use my wok on my induction top, the heat spreads evenly around. You could also try a metal ring to make it more sturdy. Bon appetite

Joanne, according to my understanding of induction cooking and the requirements of induction cookware, this cookware should be ideal. What I read said that a magnet should stick to the bottom of the pan in order for the electromagnetic field to be activated. I checked and a magnet sticks very well to the bottom surface (cooking surface) but not to the surface that is in contact with the food. That part is stainless. I hope this helps!

Yes. It has a layer of stainless steel on the bottom of the pans. Not magnetic grade, which is best for induction burners, but is enough to compliment the aluminum body, which retains heat quite evenly. I think for $20, it's a good deal. That being said, you get what you pay for. Even if you end up not liking it as much in the long run, it works well on other cooktops, someone would appreciate the gift. **(if you're ever at a shop browsing for pans, bring a small fridge magnet with you and test the bottom of the pans to see if it sticks. if it does, chances are, it's a high quality metal for induction compatibilty.)

they are not magnetic. and the commercials on tv about the induction cook top mentions their pots being magnetic. so I wouldn't think they are. I just noticed them mentioning magnetic bottoms on the last commercial I saw.

The post states that it is Stainless Steel. Stainless is NOT magnetic, I just checked it myself with a magnet on my cookware marked stainless steel. good luck

Most pressure cookers are aluminum which will not work. Induction requires that the metal be magnetic. However, Nuwave sells at extra cost a suitable magnetic pressure cooker.

This is NOT induction cooktop compatible. I ordered it because of this answered question, and when I received it today, I was very disappointed. It is not magnetic, other reviewers are correct. Cuisinart does have some in this line that are made from steel, but not this one sold by Amazon.

I have a conventional smoothtop stove, not induction. The pan is non-magnetic.

Sorry, but I just tested this set with a magnet and it is NOT induction friendly. Cuisinart's fully clad pans may be, but this wedge-bottom set is not.

I am sorry, but I will not be able to answer your question since I do not have an induction cooktop. I have natural gas in my kitchen. I remember reading somewhere that induction stoves must use iron pots, or have a magnetic disk at the bottom. Perhaps you could call Cuisinart and they would tell you for sure.

This cast Iron Pan is magnetic and it should work on an Induction cooktop. But I am not really sure that it works properly.
