“Do you have to use a special type of pot and pan on the surface unit”

1-5 of 5 Answers

• You don't actually need "special" pans, they just have to be magnetic on the bottom. Copper bottom, like real Revere Ware, and all-aluminum cookware do not work! Some stainless pots and pans are magnetic -- some are not. Castiron pans will work, but that defeats the purpose: quick to heat and easy to change cooking temperatures. This is a different cooking experience that takes a little getting used to, but it's fast, fun and very efficient.

• Must be a material that is magnetic. Iron or steel. They give you a refrigerator magnet to test your cookware with.

• Yes, typically anything that a magnet will stick to. They include a small magnet to kelp check compatability of cookware.

• Yes, they must react to a magnet. If a magent will stick, the cookware should work just fine.
