This soup pot sounds great. Does it sit flat on a glass cooking surface?

Yes, I have a glass cooktop and use Cephalon unison nonstick cookware on it.

It is my favorite pot and it has a very smooth surface. In fact the only downside is that it is a bit slippery on my gas stove, but should be fine with glass surface. You won't regret getting this pot. Nothing sticks perfect for soup and beef stew and really easy to clean.

flat---it sits on the cook top all by itself. The very best pan I have ever owned and I have another wok from cuisanart.

Yes, it's totally flat. I believe capsule bottom refers to the tri-clad layering on the bottom of the pot, to increase the heat efficiency and conductivity for even cooking. This is a very high quality, durable piece of cookware.

I can't see were there would be any problem with is sitting flat on a flat surface. I've only used mine for roasting and am very careful not to introduce cold water into a hot pan to avoid having the pan warp. If you follow the Mfg. instructions on maximum temps and cleaning you should not have a problem. It's a well made pan, cooks evenly and cleans up easily with warm soapy water.

I have a ceramic stove top - and use it on it all the time. Yes, bottom of pot is flat.

Yes it does. I too have a glass cook top. I opted to move my homebrew set up outside because of the glass cook top. I'm not sure how much weight the cook top can take. Also if extract brewing or for other reasons you may have to move the pot back and forth, this risks scratching the glass on the cook top. Also the risk for injury or burn are there as well. Depending on how much volume your boiling, your electric coil may not be able to heat your water efficiently. Hope that helps.

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

Yes it has a flat bottom. I have a glass top induction stove and it works great. It is a beautiful tea kettle.

I've never cooked on a glass top. The pot sits perfectly flat on a table,but I'm not sure if it would distort on the glass top when it warms up. I guess it would depend on how evenly the burner heats.

It is great on a glass top stove. I have a glass top and this cookware does not scratch it at all. You can boil, use stove on high setting and no harm at all. It is the only cookware I will use on such a delicate stovetop. Don"t be afraid to use this--but as the other reviewer says--the non-stick coating comes off way too easily even when extremely careful.

The item is flat except for a small groove that runs along the front. I tried pouring a little water on it. Some of the water collected in the groove, but the rest went on the side of the pot.

Yes it has a flat bottom......check with Lodge if it is safe on a ceramic cooktop.

It definitely has a flat bottom. I have a glass top induction cook top, and pans have to be flat and magnetic. This pot is both. I suspect a canning rack would fit. I did not use it for canning. I used it for three chickens to make chicken broth and then soup to feed 50 people!.

It doesn't really say, but I do on our flat-top; just watch the heat, because this pot "nicely" retains it and could burn your food.

Mine is completely flat. Wouldn't have one that wasn't. I do wish that I had bought the pan glass lid.

I do not believe that this pot is recommended for a glass top stove. However, it does have a smooth bottom and I have used mine several times on a glass top stove without any problems.

The bottom is completely flat. I have a glass top stove too. BE AWARE all porcelain bottomed cookware will bond to a glass cooktop if you use a high heat setting. It is reccomened that you use only a MEDIUM HEAT setting to prevent this. When I use my kettle I place it on a trivet to cool off and empty the water out. I love this pot, it takes a tad longer to get to boiling but it is worth it. * the whistle is very pleasant and not ear spitting so stay in close range while you wait for it to sing to you
