Is this for use only on cast iron or is it effective as a pot scraper for all pots?

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

It seems soft enough for teflon, so it should work on anything The only thing special is the corners are shaped to match the lodge products. One corner matches my skillet and the other matches the dutch oven. It helps when cleaning the corners out if food gets burned to them, especially cooking over a camp fire

Yes...Since it is plastic, you could use this on all pots. It really does a great job.

I use it for just about every type of pot and pan, or if food has gotten stuck to plates as well. They work great.

I'm sure it can be used on anything, but I only used it on my iron skillet.

works extremely well on cast iron should work fine on any other bare metal such as wok

(I'm no expert!) However, I think this "ringer" is meant strictly for cast iron (and it works like magic!). To more definitely answer your question, I just tried it on a little portion of a stainless steel pot, and I believe I do see very faint markings. If you have cast iron though, this item is a must in your kitchen!

Yes indeed. That is exactly why I bought two of them. I always used cast iron on a gas stove, but we moved to a new home with an electric flat surface. This pan works great on the flat electric!!!

I'm sure it would get the "crud" off, but probably badly scratch your shiny stainless steel. They make nylon scrubbers that are very stiff, unlike the usual kitchen sponge/scrubbers. I use these on my good stainless, The Ringer works great on all of my black cast iron.

I haven't had any issues with the scraper. I use it after I have put the cleaner on to remove any "baked on" particles. I think the key may be to not use it on a DRY surface. The scraper is a razor blade so I would use it with a light hand and caution. If you can remove the "baked on" particles with the scrubbing pad, there isn't a reason to use the scraper.

Once cool I normally Lodge plastic pan scrapers. If very dirty I occasionally use water and kosher salt. Once dry apply cooking oil to prevent rusting.

I use it for non stick cookware all the time. I liked my first one so well I bought one more. Handy to use and don't peel or erode as some of the others do.

I don't use cast iron (too heavy for me), but I can't see why it wouldn't work. It's a pretty good scrubber and I haven't seen any wear on it since I got it.

Absolutely, I use mine for bread recipes all the time. I use it for slow cook recipes, too. Cast iron holds the heat evenly and can be used in all situations. I have the dutch oven, 3 skillets, a grill and and I don't known what it's called but it's a grill like a skillet. I use my cast iron for everything. best investment I have ever made. I am not on the payroll for Lodge products, i just use and believe and trust.

They work great on All-Clad pot lids. I haven't tried them on anything else. Don't have any cast iron pots to try them on. Good luck!

Oh, it absolutely will damage it. If you're using it in Teflon (non-stick), get a plastic spatula. This one is great for cast iron pans, though!

I haven't tried it on stainless steel (other than for stuck on bits). I primarily use the Ringer XL on my cast iron or cast steel. But I do know that a bit of Bar Keeper's Friend with a dishcloth has worked wonders on my stainless steel pots for stains/spots.

Yes...I bought enough to use on all my cast iron pots...I just keep them on so I don't forget and accidentally grab the lids.

I have not used it on cast iron. I will give testamony on stainless steel cookware however. It is incredible and the cookware sparkles and shines with each use just like it came from the factory. All heat marks disappear instantly as does the residue from cooked meals. You will never go back to what you have used in the past. I do use regular dishwashing liquid and hot water to clean the cleanser and rinse with hot water as well. Dry them immediately for that factory shine. :)

I use a non-stick safe scrub pad with baking soda to clean my enameled cast iron cookware. It works very well.

What a good question. I love it for any type of aluminum or stainless steel. Makes old pots and pans look like new. On the back it shows applications as: stovetops, ovens, pots and pans, sinks, countertops (laminate, granite and corian), refrigerators, stainless steel appliances, silverware, copper and brass, bathtubs, bathroom tires, wood/laminate flooring, PVC patio furniture, BBQ grills and many more. While I've never used it on a ceramic sink, I would guess it would do a great job. The only thing you want to watch for is be sure to clean all the white residue off after you are finished...and that's not problem at all, easy wipe up. Hope this helps. What a good question.
