Does it have a solid, rounded disc bottom, or a ridged edge like enameled bottom pots that keep the center raised a bit?

It has a ridged edge on the bottom. It is raised anywhere from 1/8 to 1/2 in the center. I can not remember for sure.

It is totally flat on the bottom, just be aware that it is very thin metal, might tweak a little when first heating up. Happy hot potting, hope this helps.

There are designated spots that can be punched out for drainage, but it comes with a solid bottom, no drainage

There is a slight groove, it is shallow and smooth, but it is not raised in the middle. It is a very sturdy pizza pan, the stainless steel is very thick. I definitely recommend this pan.

It is flat, but it is not smooth. The bottom is made up of what is meant to look like individual sticks pressed together. The "ridges and valleys" are about an eighth of an inch. We set glasses on it all the time with no risk of spill. We are very pleased with the quality of ours for the price.

It does not have the thick bottom layer. I use it for beer brewing and heat it with a banjo style burner which disperses the heat evenly over the pot's surface.

It is 100% flat and with no any design in the bottom. My stove has glass top too.

They are flat on the bottom. They do have ridges that go up into the pan/pot, but that doesn't affect anything.

It does have a heavy bottom. The sides are neither thick nor thin, just standard sturdy for a cookpot.

The bottom is flat. The center is raised up a little higher than the outside, so it has about an inch around on all sides to catch the drippings in the corners. But no ridges.

The bottom and sides have ridges; only the top cover is smooth. I use this pan for making pain de mie, which produces a perfectly square loaf of bread.

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.

They do not have a flat bottom. There is a raised circular section in the center.

This has edges, so rather like a rounded square. Not circular like a standard skillet.

bottom is round. it comes with what is called a fire ring to set it on for the stove top but my experience is that it worked great with gas stove and not so good with electric stove. secret to cooking it very high heat and stir the ingredients quickly.

hi, It has little under 7" of flat bottom surface, and then a soft curve to the vertical sides. Outside diameter of the pot, ignoring the rolled top edges, is 8".

the cheaper one has stainless steel-aluminum-stainless steel on the bottom. the sides are stainless steel like a lot of traditional pots. The more expensive one has the 3 layers on the bottom and on the sides to conduct heat even more.3 layers on all sides also makes them tough for dent and abuse resistance in a commercial setting.
