Do the feet (which are not covered in plastic, like an Oxo colander's are) tend to scratch stainless steel sinks, or not?

I suppose you could if you were rough enough but under ordinary use I would say no. I have the old porcelain sink that will scratch (make marks) easily and I have no problems. If you decide to buy this product you will LOVE it! I can't run my kitchen without it anymore, now that I have it! Good luck to you.

I use this strainer in my stainless steel kitchen sink often (to rinse long grain brown rice prior to cooking it), and it hasn't left any scratches yet.

I have never used the sink without the wire mesh insert so for me it has never been scratched. The sides are scratch free as well. Its a great sink.

I don't think they will scratch. I would use a gentle touch and some stainless cleaner. My sink is fairly new so it does not have stains in the corners.

Daily use sink got some water & scratch marks, I just use dish soap & green Scotch pad then wipe dry.still very happy with this sink, reasonable price & other pricy SS sinks not as deep as this one.

No. But it does have rubber feet to keep from marring or scratching the sink.

The bristles won't scratch stainless unless you are using an abrasive powder cleaner, in which case the cleaner will do the scratching. These bristles are fairly stiff but not abrasive.

Love this sink. I do not find that it scratches any easier than any other stainless sink I have seen!

As long as you keep the bottoms of the stools clean, they don't scratch the floor. If you have sand or dogs that bring in dirt, you have to be really vigilant keeping the floor clean.

The feet are white. They are very hard plastic but don't scratch the sink. I love the grid!

YES this can scratch non-stick pots. I ruined a good circulon sauce pot by holding the blender in one spot for too long. It wore away the coating. Since then I always hold the blender at an angle and do my best not to press it against the bottom of the pots.

It does have plastic feet but where the sides touch the sink, it DOES scratch a bit. My sink is old, so it's better than nothing. But if your sink is new, I would not recommend this basin rack.

Mine don't scratch easily. However I've purchased used pieces that that were covered with knife/silverware marks. They come off surprisingly well by scrubbing with Barkeeper's Friend or Bon Ami (I prefer Barkeeper's Friend). Both of these products are sold by Amazon.

I haven't had any issues with scratches. I'm not using Comet etc just baking soda. I LOVE this sink. Yes, the pitch should be more so it drains better but I will never go back to a two compartment sink again.

I only use a wood spoon so can not say. It is very thick so I doubt a scratch would matter anyway.

Yes, but I keep a paper towel in the bottom so it won't scratch. My first one scratched from the feet.

I've washed mine several times in the dishwasher and haven't had a problem. The cooking surfaces are extremely easy to scratch though. Plastics or wood utensils only...
