Induction cookware question?

Posted on December 13, 2011 by admin 2

I'm thinking about buying an induction range top. I've researched it a little, and I know that I need the proper cookware in order for it to work. The pots need to be magnetic, and have a perfectly smooth bottom. I saw a review where someone said that they were using a set of Le Creuset successfully. Here is my question: I have a set of Le Creuset, but it is 30 years old. The bottoms are mostly smooth, but there is a "dimple" in the middle. Maybe the new pots are different? Does anyone know if my old pots will work?

The pots n pans aren’t magnetic, but must respond to magnetism. A dimple or divot in a smooth, flat pan to which a magnet will attach should be fine.

Most people that have induction cooktops love them. They are safe, clean and easy to use and maintain. One caveat as a technician/troubleshooter who has dealt with these units- buy quality with an extended warrantee if available AND have them professionally installed by someone qualified AND experienced to specifically work with this product. Make them give you an installation warrantee in writing, that they are experienced & have followed all Manufacturer and Electrical supply guidelines.

Most problems I dealt with were either installation AND power supply or user inexperience. Local sales and service initially are important. NOT a DIY project!!!!!

Ps: about "singing pans" usually the pan surface or coil mounting- not typical or common problem. _s

I have an induction hotplate and have used my 30 year old Le Creuset on it with excellent results, frying pan and saucepans. You must mean the little dimple where the name and pan size is. Doesn't seem to make any difference at all. I haven't noticed a cool spot or anything like that from it with my older pans. I love this hotplate and can hardly wait to get a whole induction cooktop.
