will this scratch the grill? seems a bit abrasive

I'm guessing it depends on the type of grill you have. If it's stainless steel, it won't scratch but keeping a stainless steel grill "like new" is almost an impossibility. We have an older Weber 3000, so we weren't so concerned with scratching a new stainless grill pair we purchased.

Yes, I scrape the grill itself and use the wire brush after each time I use it so it is ready for next time. Then every once in a while I take the grate off and scrape the sides into the aluminum throw away pan underneath that collects all the debris and grease and replace it with a new one. That is about all you need to do......easy.

It does scratch a bit, but does seem rather study. I am not a fan of cast iron, however that is up to you

It will scratch it just won't scratch as easily. I wouldn't use it as a cutting board. But as Bar top finishes go it is excellent.

We let it burn off for a few minutes after cooking. Then using a grill brush it's no big deal. We're not professional grill-users by any means, and it took some time to get used to this style grill. I will see the meat comes out terrific with no burning but nice grill marks.

I really don't see it as being able to scratch any surface. It 'looks like ' a steel grid on the back, but it is not. A 3-M tough strength scrubber that can be purchased at home improvement stores would probably work even better. I am not a fan, but it is 'OK'

I'm not familiar with that type of grill but I bought it to use on my George Foreman grill if its comparable. Works fine no scratches. For tough jobs pair it with the Dawn spray.

I don't know but this and other cast iron skillets are heavy. If dragged across a glass cooktop I would imagine it could leave scratches.

Sorry, I gave it as a gift, so I have no idea. I would say, however, if you are using all stainless pans, go ahead, but if you are using anything else, you could scratch your pans.

It will not scratch th element. If iron cookware and its content is too heavy the element support will sag or break and will touch the oven liner.

not that the outer surface (the interior is stainless steel) gets scratched but the brushed aluminum gets stained and discolored (we have gas for heating) - haven't really found a product that really restores it - but then again we are pretty industrial with our cookware - so I'm okay with it - would be constantly cleaning the stainless surface with a polish otherwise - that's me and why I opted for this set besides the cost savings. our neighbor has the full stainless and she keeps it immaculate but her cooking is more gentile than my methods

The mesh seems very strong, but I don't really know whether it's totally scratchproof.

If you use other steel pans, I suppose so. The DeBuyer pan bottom is smooth like most pans and shouldn't scratch.

It spruced up the stainless quite well but our grill is in good shape. It won't remove marks, scratches, or perhaps burned on grease but where the stainless is dull it makes it look a lot better. My husband said it looked so good he was going to sell it - which he may as well since he rarely grills anything anyway. :(

Nope. I used a no-stick skillet and it just sits there. Now if you pressed down on the insert and dragged it around the surface of the pan, I suppose it could cause scratches.

most cast iron do scratch, no big deal, just take some fine sand paper and sand it. I got my pan smooth as a baby's bottom.

I was very concerned by this, too. There is a tiny bit of padding where the iPad connects, therefore if you are careful, it will not scratch.
