Know before you buy

While it is specifically designed for cast iron, it is also effective on stainless steel pans and grill grates. Avoid using it on non-stick, ceramic, or enameled surfaces, as the metal links can scratch or damage those delicate coatings.
Cleaning is simple because the scrubber is dishwasher safe. You can toss it in with your regular load, or simply rinse it under hot water with a drop of mild soap and hang it to dry using the integrated ring.
