Can it be used to boil water on a stovetop?

I don't really think it would be best for boiling water on a stove top. You can definitely microwave water to be very hot with this, I would not put it over the stove.

Since it is borosilcate glass, the same type used in lab beakers, it should be flameproof. However, I have not used it this way so cannot speak from experience. Also, the walls are not thick, so the very brittle nature of the material suggests it should be used with great care on a stovetop.

No, you cannot. This is a tea pot. What you put on the stove is called a tea kettle.

This is meant for brewing tea, so I don't know if can be heated on the stove. I would recommend getting a pot meant for the stove instead of this one just to be safe.

Sorry not sure since I use on a fad stovetop. Packaging should indicate if you can.

Ours is on the wood stove and has not been cleaned. It is coated with calcium and rust. I don't think it would be good for boiling water for tea.

Will boil water/cook on the stove but the pot/pan must be inexpensive quality;ie. "thin metal"

No, it is not designed for stovetop use. It is for putting your tea bags in and then adding hot water.

It most definitely CAN be used on an induction stove top. While it does not have the word or symbol for induction capable on the bottom of the unit, it boils water just fine on my induction unit. I did the magnet test, and there was no attraction, but it clearly says on the box and on the Bonavita web page that it is induction capable. So I tested it on my induction cooktop stove, and successfully boiled two kettles of boiling water. So there has to be some magnetic ferrous material in the Stainless Steel, because it unequivocally works AOK!

I would not recommend this teapot for stovetop. It is very delicate and can be broken easily.

No, to boil water on the stove you want a tea kettle. A teapot like this is for brewing tea in.

I think you could but remember it is plastic so I don't think you'd want to put boiling water in it.

No, it is for putting a tea bag in and filling with hot water. It is like what they serve you tea in at a Chinese or Japanese restaurant. It is not designed for use on a stove burner.

Of course you can use it on a gas stove. I am using it that way. It works perfectly. The bottom may seem to be thin, but that actually works in advantage for the time you need to boil the water. It is very short. And the material is very sturdy, good quality stainless steel.

Yes, but be careful not to let it boil dry or boil over as this can damage both the pan and the stove.

I use it boil water using a volcano stove set up. So at least hot enough to boil water.
