Do you think I can use the Revolver Drill brush on the glass of an induction stovetop without scratching it?

I wouldn't. The drill bristles are pretty coarse, which makes it better as a tough cleaner, but worse against surfaces which could potentially scratch. I wouldn't use this on my car (if I cared about the paint job) either. Really only suitable for stone-like surfaces (e.g. ceramic and tile).

I wouldn't.. it's much stiffer than you think it is... and the plastic bristles I believe would scratch.. I used it to clean grout, and it scratched the tile.

No. This is a mild abrasive designed to remove the buildup of sap, insect debris etc. If the glass is scratched, this won't work.

no. it gets too hot for the glass. It can break your stovetop glass. Same with cast iron pots.

Aluminum has a Mohs hardness index of only 2-2.9. Glass is 4.5-6.5, and I assume the tempered heat-resistant glass used in cooktops would be at the top end of that range or higher, so there shouldn't be any problems with scratching. And the "sharp edges" other reviewers have been talking about are 90 degree cuts; there are no sharp protrusions pointing downward to the stove's surface.

I do not think the product will remove scratches from a glass stove top. The product will not disappoint in terms of cleaning brass and silver however.

First of all, stainless steel pots can handle stirring with metal spoons and spatulas - this is even less abrasive than that. The cowl that surrounds the blades of the blender is what comes in contact with the pot. The edges are rounded and won't mar or scratch the pan. This is an amazing tool and I can't imagine not having one in my kitchen. Good luck!

good question. that's what I have, and the kettle works. but the top was already scratched. are you asking about whether the kettle will function or about scratches? I'd love to know, because I'm looking at a new stovetop.

Yes but use lower temperatures. Seems the higher induction burners are not good for the new pan coatings. Mild soap and no abrasive (scotchbright) Scrubbers. After two years mine looks brand new.

With a stainless steel inside, hot water and a cloth should be used to clean it. Any type of a brush could scratch it.

Yes, I have an induction stove (which has a glass/ceramic top) and it works great. However, I put the teakettle on empty on high, and the glass-based enamel fused to the stovetop. Removing the teakettle removed a couple of big chunks of the stovetop, permanently damaging it. DON'T USE ANY ENAMEL WARE ON ANY GLASS OR CERAMIC TOPPED STOVE!

i don't have a ceramic/glass top stove, but this is the best answer i've found. There are some differing opinions on this discussion but one of the common themes to be a suggestion to use a diffuser, or flame-tamer underneath a pan so it doesn't scratch the surface. Also, don't slide the pan around - lift it up and move it.

Yes, we have a glass top electric stove and have been using this kettle. I'm curious to why one might consider this unsafe? I'm not really concerned about scratching etc if it did occur, the enamel covering doesn't melt to the glass if that is your concern. I use high heat with this kettle and haven't had a problem with mine. It isn't too heavy either if that is your concern.

I'm going to suggest a no. On the underside it sits on a corrugated ring, which actually works perfectly to keep it in place on my gas stove burner grates and for me it works beautifully. But I have to think that each point of the corrugation would possibly scratch a glass stove top. More so than the bottom of the cast iron pan would. I am a member of a Facebook group called Cast Iron Cooking. Many folks on there use cast iron on their glass top stoves successfully. You just have to be careful not to slide the pan (scratches) or drop it (heavy and could break the glass). But in my estimation this diffuser is just not designed for a glass top.

There isnothing to preclude use on a glass top stove, but you may encounter minor scratches disfiguring the gloss of the stovetop.

Yes, you certainly may. I have been using a Lodge 10.5" griddle on my glass cooktop for nearly 3 years and it has not damaged the cooktop in any way. Two caveats to keep in mind:1) Set it down on the cooktop *gently* - cast iron is heavy and there is a greater risk of breaking the glass if you're not careful.2) If you want to shift the position of the skillet, do NOT slide it - instead, lift it up and move it where you want, then set it down carefully. The bottom of cast iron is not smooth like aluminum or stainless cookware, if you slide it on a glass cooktop it may scratch it. Yes, you certainly may.

While the blade is shielded, if you scrape the housing on your non-stick surface you could scratch it. I do not use it on mine, if I need to blend something I cooked in a non-stick pan I pour it into a large 4 cup Pyrex measuring cup, then return it to the pan.

I would try a small corner. It works on enamel stoves. I use it on Aga cookers and it does not scratch! I have been using Astonish for 18years.
