Yes u could, just need to get enough oil around the rings so the eggs dont stick, they are good quality but I might have to look into a nonstick type of egg rings next time or a higher quality. However I use it about once a month so it suits my means at this price. Haven't tried on cast iron but it should hold up.

I use them on my non-stick griddle but am carefully not to slide them so as not to scratch the griddle. I have not used them in any other pan but would not hesitate to do so.

When I first started using them yes, because I was using them as if they were non-stick pans. You have to use lower heat temperatures with stainless steel.

DO NOT use pam or any other type of cooking spray, not ever on this pan. These are bad for non-stick pans. If you don't believe me, call Circulon directly. They will tell you this. This is what they told me, but I had already known this. If you have to, use a little oil...but not Pam.

They can not be used in an oven. The handles are bakelite therefore they can not be placed in an heated oven. knight68

I strictly use it on my cast iron skillets and pans....works great! They do not belong in the dishwasher; they are to be only washed by hand to keep the seasoning

I don't know of ANY nonstick coating that you can use metal utensils on.Get a set of metal for your cast iron and a set of nylon for your nonstick.

Absolutely! We use them on the grill all the time. That's the great thing about cast iron! Hope this helps!

Yes. But these pans are very very small! I have no use for mine, thought they were bigger :(

They are non-stick, but I doubt anything is made of Teflon today. I just don't know. Sorry

I haven't tried them for that use. They're really rather delicate and break apart easily, so I don't use them much. I kind of doubt they'd hold up to grease. Maybe try Dawn with a nonstick scrubber dipped in hot water. Just a guess.

You can use these pans as you would any others. I use them for every method of cooking and absolutely love them.

I only use them for my cast iron but I see no reason why they couldn't be used on other pots and pans.

I really don't know if it can go in the oven. They say it can but not at high temperatures. I have never put nonstick pans inthe oven and I don't intend to put these in the oven. They are so perfect in all other respects, I don't want to do anything to spoil them!!

No. Definitely not. In fact, they are kind of like the opposite of non-stick pans. You have to be pretty careful when cooking foods that have a high risk of sticking to things in these pans. If you burn stuff on, it can be a chore to get all the burnt residue off. That being said, I think they're great pans. They heat very quickly and get very, very hot. In my experience they heat much faster, and get much hotter than any non-stick pan that I have seen (and I've seen a lot). They'll give you great control over what you're cooking (much better control than a non-stick pan), and you can cook some more creative things in them, but they are certainly not the pans to be looking for if you just want to make some quick scrambled eggs and have no chance of any egg sticking to the pan and being hard to clean. (All that said, there is one big advantage to cleaning these over cleaning a non-stick pan: you can stick it in the water immediately after using! Even if it's still hot. Doing that to a non-stick pan will destroy it. With these, it's no problem. In fact, being sure to do this is the best way to make sure that you don't end up with any hard-to-remove stains/residue)

I ALWAYS grease my pans, non stick or not. I do with these as well. They clean up really nice. I keep a 1:1:1 mix in the fridge of flour, vegetable oil, shortening and use on all my pans. NOTHING will ever stick.

You might be able to, but I have never tried. They just "feel" more like platters than baking pans. You could possibly use them to warm things in the oven or toaster oven I suppose. We love them - perfect for sending foods out to the grill and back on a separate platter, then putting them in the dishwasher.

I believe they are not for use in ovens of any kind. I only use them for foods to keep warm after cooking, covered in fridge and on table to keep warm or cold.
