Will this scratch a glass top stove?

I have used it several times on mine....and other cast iron pans...and no, it doesn't scratch it. If it leaves a rust-type stain, just clean it with Barkeepers and it will be perfect! I use Barkeepers on my cooktop all the time and it's amazing. My cooktop is 14 years old and not a scratch

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 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.

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.

DO NOT use this pan on a glass top if you are worried about scratches! This is a real scratcher.

I use mine on a glass top range. You just have to be careful when you set it down... it's heavy. I wouldn't slide it around since that would probably scratch the stove top.

Yes this brush will scratch your cooktop. The bristles are very strong, strong enough to clean barbecue grills coated in heavy burned on grease.

It has a non stick coating and yes it will scratch, but this is the only down fall, we love it and use it every day, almost never use the gas stove any more

Yes. I've had no problem using it on my ceramic cooktop. It won't scratch or damage the surface.Lois

I do not think it could be used on glass top, which may cause some scratches.

I would put it on the glass top range if the range were COLD and NOT IN USE. There is a padded bottom so I don't think it would scratch the glass top.

I would not recommend it for the fact that it will scratch the top but it dose work great.

If you mean a Glass top stove, the answer is "Yes". We've used ours for on a glass top for three years now. We use a modicum of care when moving the pot around so as not to scratch the surface.

My stove is a glass top and I have had no trouble however, I am not a glass stove top expert so I would refer to your user's manual for guidance.

There is no way that the backsplash will scratch the cooking surface. Simply angle the backslash forward and snap it into place. In a worst case scenario, one might nick the very back edge (but one would have to be VERY clumsy)!

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.

NO, it will scratch....You need a plastic-type spatula good for non-stick surfaces with a high temperature rating.

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.

Don't think you need to worry about scratching cookware surface as the blades do not touch the either the sides or the bottom of the pot. When I use the blender, I keep the blade guarde pretty much off of the pot surface but even if you do touch a surface, it would not leave a mark. Enjoy
