Can you use metal utensils with the pan?

No. It will mess up the coating. I use wooden spoon or silicone spatula when I'm cooking with Orgreenic. I had high expectation os this brand, but honestly, they are just like all other non-stick pans that get dull in a short time. Then frying becomes sticky after a while. If you don't want to bother reseasoning pans, try the glass stove top brands like this: http://goo.gl/7AqNRx or this: http://goo.gl/jzxMCC . They are much healthier and easier to maintain. You can use metal utensils with it too. Once the non-stick pans lose the coating, that's when cooking becomes unhealthy so I will stick to stovetop glass cookware. Specifically the amber glass ones. They last a long time. Hope this helps. No. It will mess up the coating. I use wooden spoon or silicone spatula when I'm cooking with Orgreenic.

suppose you could but to prevent damage to the ceramic coating would suggest either wood or plastic utensils

I would not recommend using any metal utensil. I did so last week as I was in a hurry grabbed the wrong utensil and flipped an egg; found upon washing the fry pan I had scratched the surface. It was minor but nonetheless after using countless times I had caused this one scratch. I otherwise, am very impressed with this fry pan. LJM

No metal. It will scratch the surface. These pans are good but you need to coat them often or the food will stick.

no you cannot. The instruction book warns against them. Nylon and wood utensils are recommended.

No, you should use non-stick utensils. You will scratch the surface with metal.

You risk scratching the nonstick material if you use metal. Just use any flat plastic utensil to loosen the pancake and it will work.

I don't know of ANY nonstick coating that you can use metal utensils on. Get a set of metal for your cast iron and a set of nylon for your nonstick.

YES - it is NOT a non-stick product - I guess you could call it a "stick cookware set" You can use metal utensils with it, maybe that says it best.

I would say that since it's not Teflon, you probably can. But Amazon does offer utensils. I probably wouldn't use metal.

The pans are very sturdy and I see no reason why you couldn't use metal utensils. I've not had any scratch issues either.

Yes, the pans have metal ring on the bottom and they are okay for use on ceramic sttoves.

I think you can. I really like this pans, they are really good. Just make sure you use plastic or wooden spoons.

As with most any non-stick pot or pan, metal utensils are a no-no. Once you've baked the pizza, transfer to your stone or cutting board to slice it up. I built a wood fired brick pizza oven in the back yard, and the dough is really flimsy and sticky, making the non-stick pan a must for sliding the pizza off into the brick oven. HTH,Mike

You can use stainless steel that is magnetized (if magnet sticks to the bottom of pan, it is magnetized). Also an induction interface disk it's not as fast but it helps with aluminum and other pans with out magnet properties.

Absolutely. You only need to avoid metal utensils when the interior is a non-stick material.

I figure not! The pans are non-stick, therefore not cooking on the metal but the non-stick coating

The pan is solid, shiny stainless steel (no Teflon coating), so you can use any type of spatula, including metal. As with any stainless steel product, sharp knives will eventually scratch the metal, but the minor scratches will not effect the performance of the pan.

I would say no to using metal spoons. I have had these pans for several years now and have always used non-metal utensils on them. I also keep them stacked with a paper towel in between to prevent scratching. With these precautions they have not had any scratches and are great pans.

The book says you can, but I don't think I am going to. Probably something like a metal spatula would be okay, but not anything that could slip and scratch.
