Is the canner magnetic? Is it rated to work with induction stoves?

I'm not sure on either of those questions, but it sure looks like it would work with induction. I bought this (versus the other kind) because I know I'll be changing to induction soon and wanted it to work when I do get a new stove.

It is. I have a gas stove, but I took a class in which the instructor used this canner with a portable induction burner.

Yes it does, used it a few times on my induction stove top, and I have to say, it is a lot faster then my old aluminum caners on radiant heat. So unless they changed something since I bought it earlier this year, it works great. Can't beat the price!

If it's magnetic, then it's NOT 18/10 stainless, as the description claims. According to metallurgists, only lesser grades of stainless are magnetic, due to the percentage of chromium,nickel, and molybdenum that makes up 18/10 Stainless Steel.

The canner is a stainless steel pot. It doesn't indicate that it works with induction stoves but other people apparently have had some success with it.

I don't know. I do not have an induction stove. It is a metal pot. If an induction stove works with metal, it should work with this.

I don't know about induction stoves, but I have used it on a gas stove, with no problems.

The bottom is not magnetic. I am not sure about induction stove top, seems to me must be OK. I did not try. Best wishes :)

After reading your question, I placed a magnet to the bottom of the pot and it did stick. So I would say yes, it would work with an induction stove top.

It will not work with induction because it is not magnetic iron; copper plated brass, I believe. Sorry!

I have not tried it on an induction stove as I have not used one of those yet, but reading about those stoves I found these as a short form of guide for whether some cooking device will work with it: "Cast iron pans and any black metal or iron pans will work on an induction cooking surface." (on Wikipedia) and "Your cast-iron skillet is a sure bet, and much of your stainless steel should work fine, too. If you aren't sure if your cookware will work, simply hold a magnet to the bottom of it. If it sticks, you're in business." - I quickly double-checked the pan with a magnet, and it definitely stuck to it. So yes, it should work on induction stoves.

Yes. I have an induction stove and it's perfectly fine. In fact, if you check on the back you will see that it says "induction suitable" or something like that.

If I understand how induction stoves work, then no. The pot is not magnetic (some stainless steels are not), and your stove would not be able to induce heat in said pot. Sorry for the delay

No! I just ordered this for my induction because of the answer here..... It is not magnetic. Do not order if you have an induction cooktop!!

It's not magnetic. I don't have an induction oven so I can't speak to that. Other than the copper venear wearing off on the outside of the pans, I still love them

It can be used on an induction stove top. It is not magnetic, it's made out of copper with a tin lining.

Yes the magnet does in fact stick with a magnet. I have a large one of these canners and Amazon also sells a small one that is ideal for pints. It does not take as long to heat and fits burners better if you have a small family or like to use pints for certain items. Hope this helps.

Yes. It has a layer of stainless steel on the bottom of the pans. Not magnetic grade, which is best for induction burners, but is enough to compliment the aluminum body, which retains heat quite evenly. I think for $20, it's a good deal. That being said, you get what you pay for. Even if you end up not liking it as much in the long run, it works well on other cooktops, someone would appreciate the gift. **(if you're ever at a shop browsing for pans, bring a small fridge magnet with you and test the bottom of the pans to see if it sticks. if it does, chances are, it's a high quality metal for induction compatibilty.)

This pan is made of mild steel and is therefore magnetic. However, it has a rounded bottom, and I don't know how well that would work with an induction unit. Perhaps someone else has tried it?

If you mean induction stoves, it will work since it has an iron-core. Induction stoves work by exciting ferrous metals magnetically, generating heat. If this were pure enamal, it would not work. Since it is cast iron covered in enamal, the magnetic energy will heat the pots very well. If you stick a magnet on a pot and it stays, then it will work on an induction stove. Unlike regular cast iron, this will be less likely to scratch the glass because of the enamaling.

Note that it says it has an aluminum base, so no. All of my stainless-steel cookware is useless for induction due to aluminum bases. Aluminum does not magnetize. Try putting a magnet up to aluminum can. No luck.
