The otherwise magnificent 50-year-old 14" pan has such a downward-domed and knobbly bottom it only makes about 2 square inches of contact, so it not only won’t heat up, and wobbled, it was going to scratch/break the stovetop.
I have two pans like this and I love them soooo much, but they don’t fit my regular flat top OR induction burners… might be time to gift them to loved ones who have fire in their house still.

It used to settle into my old electric coils on the old stovetop just fine, but when it died mid-Covid I had to take what I could get.

Saaaame and saaaaame hahaha. I do prefer the flats and inducts to coils for sure, but I cannot use one of my favorite pans or my wok anymore. D:
