Yes, as do almost all Induction cooktops that require magnetizable bottom. You can check your vessels bottom with a piece of magnet to test if this will work for induction cooktops. Non magnetizable metals don't work.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hi - Thanks for considering GE Profile Model # PHP9030DJBB! Compatible cookware for induction cooktops should be made of magnetic stainless steel, enameled steel, cast iron (works well but may scratch the glass unless it is porcelain coated) or a combination of these materials. The key to testing workable cookware is that a magnet must be able to stick and hold to bottom of pan. Pans should have a flat bottom and be at least 5 inches across the bottom. Cookware larger than the element ring may be used; however, heat will only be created above the burner.
