A game-changer for my opinion

This scrubber has replaced my former stainless steel mess that was hard to clean, had little steel curls unraveling and hard to store. The Ationgle cleans up easily, is very sturdy and comfortable and loops around a faucet when not in use. I love it. I also use it on baking sheets, and sometimes on glass bowls.

Pros
  • The stainless steel chainmail is highly durable and long-lasting
Cons
  • May not be effective for cleaning the crevices between the ridges on a waffle iron

Retain Your Cast Iron’s Seasoning Longer

I love this thing. It has changed my cast iron care forever for the better. It cleans well and the seasoning on my skillet lasts much longer than it did before.

Pros
  • The chainmail cleaner is highly durable and can last for years with proper care
Cons
  • Can require significant time and effort to clean, especially in intricate areas

Surprisingly Effective

This was my first time using a chainmail scrubber, and I will never go back! Though I was a bit dubious of the effectiveness at first, I can't believe how well it worked. It literally took seconds to clean pots that before would require some soaking and several minutes of scrubbing!

Pros
  • This is absolutely great for cleaning cast iron cookware.....will last forever
Cons
  • Not dishwasher safe

Must Have Game Changer

This makes cleaning your cast iron a breeze. I've been using ours for almost 3 years, and it has held up so we'll. Easy to use and easy to clean.

Pros
  • Works great getting stubborn build up off of my cast iron pans
Cons
  • Can rust over time with frequent use

Makes cleaning the pan easy

Started using my cast iron skillets more recently. Was cleaning them with a plastic scraper, Kosher salt, and a small stiff nylon brush. Found this stainless steel scrubber cuts the cleanup time by 70% and is easy to use. Wish I had bought one years ago. Works on my 6 inch pan and my 10 inch pan. I place a clean sponge on top of the scrubber to remove cooked-on food deposits, adding a little hot water to the pan.

Pros
  • Health & Household
Cons
  • Could potentially damage Teflon

It Understood the assignment.

This is so perfect for cleaning my cast iron skillets. I have been lost and now I am found when it comes to cleaning these skillets.

Pros
  • The stainless steel material is easy to clean and maintain
Cons
  • Could potentially rust over time if not dried properly

Makes cleaning cast iron easy

While my skillet is hot, I pour in a little water and use my stainless tongs to hold the chain mail and scrub the pan. Works great.

Pros
  • The chainmail cleaner is safe to use on cast iron surfaces and will not scratch or damage the finish
Cons
  • Not recommended for use with coated or painted cookware

Great scrubber best in my review

Great scrubber. One thing people should watch out for is leaving it in a sink with a garbage grinder. Since it is slick, it tends to slide into the drain. You won't see it happen if you are running water in the sink with pots over it. Next time you run your garbage grinder you end up with hundreds of small broken apart rings which cannot be removed easily. Forget about trying to use a magnet to get them out because they are stainless steel and non-magnetic.

Pros
  • Throw the sponges and all extra scrubbers away and get one of these. Easy to use. Easier to clean.
Cons
  • Difficult to store due to size and shape

Durable and used for portable firepit

Bought this for a different purpose. We have a portable fire pit and found out we can use wood pellets to build fire. Someone from a fire pit forum recommended to use stainless steel chain cleaners. I bought several and lined our firepit. And oh my goodness, it served our alternate purpose and it’s super durable. We are so happy with the purchase and light up the firepit on many nights. Highly recommended!

Pros
  • The chainmail cleaner is perfect for pre-seasoned pans, Dutch ovens, and waffle iron pans
Cons
  • Can be difficult to hold onto when wet

cast iron skillet cleaner

I am a little disappointed with the item,none of the rings are soldered together and time will tell how long it will last before the rings start coming apart,i have read reviews about this thing failing after a few uses.To make this a lasting product the rings should have been soldered together,i am considering returning this and buying a better made cast iron cleaner.

Pros
  • This product is a time-saver, allowing you to quickly and easily clean your cookware without hassle
Cons
  • May not be effective for removing stubborn stains or discoloration from cookware

Must Have for Cast Iron

Love this product, I have 2 for me and have bought one for everyone I know who uses cast iron pans! It’s so handy! That's my feedback!

Pros
  • Better price than others. Has not rusted. Does a fantastic job of cleaning pans.
Cons
  • Can snag on clothing and fabric

My new best friend on my review.

This little low-profile kitchen gadget has made my life indescribably easier. I never even knew there was such a tool out there, and as a result, my cast iron pans have suffered for it. I've only used this a few times, but already I can see the results. Not only does it clean them very efficiently, but could it also be that it's further burnishing my cast iron? I fried an egg on one after using it and it was better than any non-stick pan I've owned (and cooked more evenly too). This thing was…

Pros
  • The 316L scrubber is highly effective at removing baked-on food and grease
Cons
  • Could potentially impart steel flavor onto food items

WHAT TOOK ME SO LONG

I am trying to eliminate all cook ware beyond Cast Iron, Glass and some stainless. I have Cast Iron skillets that belonged to my Grandmother (over 100 Years old). Love that the traditional is holding true - and healthy. This is the very best way to clean Cast Iron. And learned can also be used on annoying difficult to clean waffle irons. Have just ordered 2 more as gifts and will continue.

Pros
  • Works awesome. I use this on both my castiron and my black stone. Good dize.
Cons
  • Can be difficult to use on curved surfaces

My wife found this on ebay Prime.My first thought was that some Knight from days gone past was missing some armor.Size is perfect. Material appears strong enough to handle the job.Good purchase

Pros
  • Works great on the Blackstone. Love it!
Cons
  • Could potentially damage the seasoning on pre-seasoned cookware

it works as advertised

i originally bought a pre-seasoned Lodge cast iron pan. I did not like the surface, so after watching multiple youtube videos, I sanded the bottom of the pan to bare metal and then seasoned it properly. So it is now where it ought to be. I had cleaned my pan by scraping with a wooden spatula, then with warm water using a paper towel to clean before wiping dry with a dedicated cloth. This gizmo knocks out a step - the scraping - and is much more efficient than the paper towel (where I would…

Pros
  • Works as expected for a cast iron pan. Good size for a grip while not difficult to rinse or hang dry
Cons
  • May not be as effective as other cleaning solutions for grease buildup

So far, so good: my feedback

Works as expected, but I've only used it once. We'll see how it holds up. Not 8×6, more like 7×7, but whatever. That's my feedback.

Pros
  • The chainmail cleaner is perfect for those who want a high-quality, long-lasting, and effective cleaning product
Cons
  • Can be difficult to manipulate with oily fingers

Works amazing- so much better than brush style options

Game changer if you own an iron skillet. Seems weird but I promise it’s way better than any of the brush style options. Gets everything off your iron skillet super easily without damaging it and it doesn’t get grease stuck on it like wire brushes I have used in the past.

Pros
  • The chainmail cleaner is highly effective at removing rust and stains from surfaces
Cons
  • May not be effective for removing charred-on food particles

My reality is that I got confiused with the picture of this product. I always wanted to have an iron pot, and for some reason my mind thougt that I was getting the pot pluss the cleanning item for a wonderful price, and my disapointment came when I received just the cleanning item. I want to returned because I dont have a reason to keep it, I dont have any iron pot, and for cleanning purpose, the chinesse store sell a very good brillo for less than 2 dollars. Thanks!

Pros
  • I really like the fact it does as advertised, it cleans without taking away the cast iron seasoning.
Cons
  • Can be dangerous if dropped on hard surfaces

Works as promised.: my feedback

Performs as promised! I inherited three decades old cast iron skillets of different sizes my grandmother had used. They were completely covered in rust. I kept them outside for years in my desert themed garden as decorative objects because I thought they were beyond saving. Now they look brand new and I currently use them for cooking!

Pros
  • 🍳Use the scrubber instead of the steel wool cleaner to preserve the tempering of your seasoned cast iron
Cons
  • Not recommended for use with copper cookware

Cleaning cast iron just got easier

I inherited my grandmother's cast iron skillets. Due to the amount of time she last used them and I acquired them, there was quite a bit of rust. This made cleaning the rust off so much easier and did not take the seasoning off the pans to my amazement. Cleaning the chainmail was done in the dishwasher and it came out just fine. If you never had cast iron pans before and don't know how to clean them, this will make it so much easier on you and will keep you from taking the seasoning off. Highly

Pros
  • I don’t know what I did before I had this. Makes cleaning cast iron and stoneware a breeze.
Cons
  • Not suitable for use with aluminum pots and pans
