Can I use the teapot on glass cooktop?

I have never directly used my teapot on the stove ,I do pour boiling water over the tea and have no problems at all.

One of the things I love about this teapot is that I can put it on the low simmer setting to keep it a perfect temperature. I hasten to add, however, that I do not have a glass cooktop, but a gas range.

As MrWizard said, there's more than one kind of glass top cooking surface. If yours is an induction cooktop, no, you can't use this set with it. If yours is an infrared cooktop, this set should be fine.

This is a ceramic tea POT. To boil on the stove you are looking for a tea KETTLE. There are some exceptions, but for the most part to make tea correctly and safely you need one of each. Tea kettles are made of materials that can stand up to the extreme heat from below and cooling liquid inside/above they encounter on the stove, typically metal. Tea pots are made of materials that can stand the less-intense heat gradient from boiling water to ambient temperature, and won't impart flavor to the tea, typically ceramics. If you steep the tea in a metal kettle, you will likely get unpleasant metallic flavors in your tea, because tea is acidic and will dissolve some of the metal into your drink. If you boil water stove-top in a tea pot, it will very likely crack, possibly violently, and spew hot water everywhere. There are a relatively few pots out there made out of materials that work both stove top and for steeping. The ones I've seen have mostly been made out of Pyrex or similar materials. Do *not* assume a glass tea pot is safe to put on the stove, though. Most glass is at least as likely to explode on top of the stove as a ceramic pot, and will make much more dangerous shards. Personally, I'm not comfortable with even glassware that claims to be safe on the top of the stove.

This pot is not intended for stove top use. You are supposed to boil the water in sonething else then pour it into this pot to make your tea.

Yes to both of these types of cook tops. I have the no coil smooth top cook surface which I believe mine is glass. I have not had any problems with the kettle or my stove top. Hope this helps. I love my tea kettle.

i would not us it on the stove top. It is not meant to boil the water for the tea in. My stove is the glass top type of electric stoves and it has a hold warm stop in the center and I do put the tea pot there , once the tea is made to keep it warm.Hope this helps.

I don't have a glass cooktop but my mom does. I think the cooking would turn out fine, but there is a huge danger of cracking your glass when placing or setting this on the glass because it is pretty heavy. I probably wouldn't use this on glass.

According to www.lodgemfg.com, it will work on your glass cooktop. It does say however to not slide the cast iron on the glass top. This link should give you more answers. http://www.lodgemfg.com/useandcare/seasoned-cast-iron

It would work just fine with a glass cooktop. I love mine. I use mine with mostly a gas range but I believe it would work fine on glass top as well.

Yes, it can be used on a glass-top stove. The Signature series and the Professional series, in my opinion, is the only series to buy as they are the BEST!!!!!

Absolutely not! There are glass teapots for stove use but this is not one of them.

I wouldn't. I've noticed that the bottom seems to leave a black dinghy color on my countertop, so I doubt it would do well with heat. Plus, the little tag on the teapot said that it can never be placed on a heated surface. You must use an alternate teapot to heat water before pouring it into this one...which makes this teapot basically useless if you are not using it for tea ceremony or something similar.

Yes, it can also be used on glass stove tops. As for pots, something like the casseroles are better than the rounded pot so there is more contact with the heat source.

Yes you can use this on a glass top stove! I have had a glass top stove for a long time & cook everyday with these wonderful pans. This T-fal set is a great set. They cook even & easy to cleanup. I wouldn't cook with anything else.

No. I have a glass cooktop and the pan works great. It is super heavy duty and cooks very nicely.
