This item says it is induction compatible, but not really. Our high-end Bosch induction cook top has worked with EVERY SINGLE PAN we have used on it (that is induction friendly) EXCEPT this one. Even the $10 Walmart generic pans work better. This pan only works on a single "burner", the smallest of those on the stove which is also closest to the wall. That means the over-sized pan has two major problems for us:

1) The pan cannot be easily manipulated because it is too close to the back wall.

2) The pan does not get nearly hot enough. Even on 8-of-10 (which is normally VERY HOT for most pans) this thing barely gets warm other than dead-center in the bottom of the pan, a 6" diameter area. The sides of the pan, which is the whole reason to get a pan of this style, stay cool enough that nothing cooks if it is not touching the middle center of the pan.

Maybe this pan works on other induction tops but definitely not ours. Sadly I cannot find the cardboard logo wrapper that was around the pan, so we dropped $40 on something that is useless to us. Maybe I can send it to my mother's place and it will work better on a standard electric range.

Sadly disappointed. It looks great, but I don't but pans to look at them... in fact they hide in the cabinets under the cook top, so this really serves zero purpose for us.

We put the 12-Inch Stir Fry pan on our wedding registry and were so thrilled when we received it! It is a great pan! The size is perfect for when we have guests over. We loved this pan so much we bought the entire Circulon Contempo Red Set with our wedding gift cards!

We've washed the pans by hand and in the dishwasher multiple times and have not seen any wear on the pans. We love them! Great price too!
