Will the Orgreenic Griddle Grill Pan leave marks on my pancakes and fried eggs since the pan has raised bumps on it?

If the pan is hot enough, yes it will. I've not used it for fried eggs, as the ridges make flipping them over challenging. Pancakes hold up better, but you still need to slide your spatula along the ridges, not crosswise into them.

Not a good idea - the pancakes and eggs would cook unevenly because they are different thicknesses. Plus you will spend a lot of time and effort getting the egg or pancake out of the grooves.The best use for the griddle is for meats and firm vegetables [such as eggplant slices] where you want grill-marks -

Not that I have found. Have made french toast and pancakes on the flat grill and because no oil is required on the plates, there was nothing to splatter. Have made a hot sandwich (panini like) and steak with the closed grill plates, again with no lubrication, and didn't even have any build up in the reservoir at the back of the unit. There is absolutely no flaw that I have found, love this thing. Absolutely no splatter from the items I have used it for.

We use the ribbed grill pan and the so called "panini" cover to grill steaks, etc.; they leave nice grill marks. I do suggest you get the rigid plastic devices with the plastic "teeth" to help clean the pan, etc. Leonard Feld

get the highest heat-resistant spatula you can find. Just don't leave it resting on the griddle.

If you know how to cook with S.S. yes it is always remember HOT pan cold cooking fat (butter pam bacon grease...ect.) I have cooked eggs and pancakes on this and no problem at all with sticking

I use only an occasional coating of canola oil and have not had the problem. Since one can damage the non-stick coating either mechanically or chemically, I would suggest that you contact Krups and ask them. Try http://krups.custhelp.com/app/ask. I am sure you are not the first person with this problem.

I don't have those but I would think that would damage the pan. Also, I have a gas range so I'm no help. Sorry.

It does, but I don't recommend the pan: you'll be better served using a Lodge cast iron griddle instead. After 1 year of ownership this is what I've found:Oil runs to the edges of the griddle when it's hot.Some vegetable oils become gummy on this panThe non-stick surface isn't very good and it gets stickier as time goes on.I was a sous-chef and I've been cooking since I was 9 (I'm in my 50's) and know how to handle and care for kitchen equipment (I use All-Clad cookware) but this pan degraded quickly. I don't use it for much anymore and am awaiting my Lodge cast iron griddle, which I should have purchased in the first place.

I use non-stick pans and haven't had any trouble with scratching. Since there is water in the pan, the poacher kind floats while the eggs are cooking.

Try this and see if it helps. Dip pan in dish water. Pour out excess water. Sprinkle either Cameo (my favorite) or Barkeepers Friend in pan. Using a dry paper towel, scrub pan. This should remove marks. Do NOT use Brillo or SOS pads as they will scratch the finish.

I just soak it in soapy water for a few moments and I use a soft scrubber and yes it did leave grill marks on it . I love my broiler pan .

Thanks. I ended up using the little green scrubby pads and that did the trick. I was just worried it would hurt the pan, but it looks as good as new.

some things leave a residue...but the cleaning is the key...only use a wet paper towel to clean...soap is not good for this type of pans.

Don't use metal in the pan at all. That will prevent further scratches. I did the same thing.

They have metal ridges on the bottoms of the pans that can scratch the surface of a glass top stove. I returned my set for that very reason.

I have the pan and I cook on an electric range. The only time I have something stick to the bottom is when it wasn't properly cleaned. The food sticks to food residue left in the pan after washing. If it is properly cleaned, this problem doesn't happen. Also, preheat before adding oil, butter, etc. Fred

It's okay with grease draining but there are clear hot spots under the heating loop. For pancakes i just pour the batter over the top of the hotter loop.
