If induction is the same as or similar to ceramic then yes. We have a ceramic top. This skillet rocks!!

I believe you can. I don't have an induction stove but I didn't see anything that warned against it. It really is a wonderful pan..I am thrilled with mine and use it so much it stays on the stove! Easy to clean..doesn't warp like my old pan did.

Yes, they will work with an induction system because of the magnetic ability of stainless steel. To see if any pan is induction worthy all you have to do is see if a magnet will stick to the bottom. Induction has to do with magnetism.

I don't know as I have never used them with induction heating. I have used them on the stove top and in the oven and that has worked.

I don't see why it would not be able to be used on an induction burner. The inductions appear to be smooth ceramic style surface just like my stove top.

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.

The pans I purchased are not compatible with induction cooktop. However I noticed that they now sell sets that are compatible.

I can't give a definitive answer, but my guess is no. This is from Wikipedia:"Stainless steel pans will work on an induction cooking surface if the base of the pan is a magnetic grade of stainless steel. If a magnet sticks well to the sole of the pan, it will work on an induction cooking surface." &"Aluminum or copper alone does not work on an induction stove because of the materials' magnetic and electrical properties"

No, they can NOT be used on induction cooktop. See the Calphalon site for more information. All Calphalon pans that can be used on induction cooktops have a symbol on the bottom of each pan -- these do not. Almost bought these based on answers to this question, but glad I did some more checking before purchasing -- including going to a brick and mortar store and checking. One easy way to check (if in person) is to see if a magnet sticks to the bottom of the pan. If it does, works with induction. There are some other really good sets that work on induction cooktops, including Circulon Premier Professional Hard Anodized Nonstick 13-Piece Cookware Set (much cheaper at Costco than on Amazon).

As far as I know they are, is your glass top range the Induction type that only heat up when you place a unit on the stove, if it is just remember to experiment with the heat settings, as these pans use a lot less heat to cook with

Yes, I bought these pots and they work perfectly in my induction range. The only comment is that the pan's coating, is fading very fast.

I do not think so. Usually if pans are able to be used for induction it will say so in the specs. or product description.

These pans do NOT work on induction stovetops - I don't think the other two people who answered know what an 'induction' stovetop is. They are not magnetic in ANY fashion, which is a requirement of an induction stove. Avoid these pans.

Merri, I really don't about that ,I bought these pots and pans as a gift for my daughter,I know the price was right,the product is great, so far so good ,all the cooking my daughter has done so far is great,the pans are very good for the price,but I think I read somewhere that you can use these on an induction top,but the best thing to do is Call Farberware customer service ,they will give you the right information you need.

I have an electric stove so don't know if these will work with induction. They are really great little casserole pans that I bake with. They are serving size, so can come right out of over to plate as a serving dish.

Boy, I don't know anything about induction cooktops. I think you should contact the company that makes these skillets and ask them. So sorry I couldn't be of help.
