Lodge Scrub Brush, Cast Iron Cleaning Brush, 10 Inches

I've tried the scrapers, tried the kosher salt method, even tried the chain mail cleaner. This brush consistently cleans my cast iron skillet without removing the seasoning layer. Hot water and this brush - all you need. With a seasoned pan, I rarely have to "scrub" with this brush, and never have to press hard enough to break the brush! I've had my brush for two years, hasn't broken, but the bristles are started to get a little frayed and stiff, so I'm buying another today. If you go cast iron, you have to learn a new way to clean and maintain. Once you learn it, and have this brush, you'll be set. When finished cooking, keep the pan on heat, add some oil till it's hot, then with hot water running, add some water to the pan which will boil and sizzle, which breaks up food/residue in the pan, then use brush to relatively gently break up and grind away what's in the pan, then use the running hot water to wash it all away, then use a paper towel to dry out the pan and "spread around" that thin layer of oil that didn't completely wash away. **NOT washing away that remaining layer of oil is THE KEY to keeping that skillet seasoned. When I started doing it this way, I really started loving my cast iron because the seasoning layer never gets lost and just continues to become more bonded with each use. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BRUSH!

We use this every day on everything! Not just for cast iron or pots-n-pans! Great quality! The length ensures it can reach to the bottom of jars, vases & tall glasses! Never scratches! Cleanes effortlessly! Received quickly!

Excellent scrub brush. Great quality, versatile, besides a cast iron cleaner a fantastic vegetable brush.

I purchased this Lodge Scrub Brush twice — once on April, 2026 and again on June, 2026, hoping the second one would hold up better. Unfortunately, both had the same problem. I use this brush daily to clean my cast iron pans, which is exactly what it's marketed for. Despite normal use and care, the bristle pad on each brush eventually snapped into two pieces, rendering the brush unusable well before I'd expect for a product at this price point. For a brand known for durable cast iron cookware, I expected the accessories to match that quality. Two separate purchases failing the same way tells me this isn't a one-off defect — it's a consistent quality control issue. I can't recommend this brush for anyone looking for a long-lasting cleaning tool. I'll be looking for an alternative brand going forward.

I purchased this brush basically because it bore "Lodge" brand on the label. I figured since they are well know in the cast iron skillet business, their brush would be exactly what I need. Sadly, their brush does not meet my expectations. I was hoping for a brush a bit stiffer that would easily remove egg substances from the center and edges of my Lodge skillets. Also, the scraper edge might be better if it was straight and not curved. Perhaps, if my pans had 20 coats of seasoning, this brush might be perfect. But I have to work with what I have. On the plus side, this brush works well on non-stick cookware. But I already have a trusted brush for that which I prefer. At this point, I shall have to shop in person at a local kitchen goods store where I can personally look at and and feel reasonably stiff bristles on my hands from an inventory of brushes that should fill my needs. I should not have to scrape egg off my pans with my fingernails. Now upgrading my initial review from 3 stars to 4. I find that if I use extra pressure on the brush, my results are improved. Also, I find that as my pan seasoning builds, and if I use a bit more oil during cooking than I usually do, food has less tendency to stick. I would still prefer a scraper edge that is straight rather than curved. I shall still look for a slightly stiffer brush with a better scraper. 2nd Update: Turns out this is the perfect brush for cleaning mushrooms! The bristles are long and soft and the best brush I've used for cleaning delicate mushrooms! A complete surprise for me! If you need a brush for cleaning mushrooms without disfiguring their delicate flesh, THIS IS IT!

Great brush to clean the cast iron skillets

Nicest brush I’ve got.

Game changer for washing cast iron, 10/10 recommend

Vorab: als Hobby-Koch ist man nur so gut wie seine Ausrüstung und zu Weihnachten kam endlich eine lang gewünschte Gusseisen-Pfanne von Le Creuset in mein Leben. Anfangs etwas enttäuscht bin ich nun nach einer nächtlichen Öl-Einbrennen-Session mehr als überzeugt von diesem Material. Nachdem ich bei der Recherche zu diesem Thema viel über Einbrennen, Öl-Wahl und Patina gelesen habe, war es mir unmöglich geworden, dieses massive Stück Eisen mit einem schnöden Glitzi-Spülschwann zu bearbeiten - die hart erarbeitete "Patina" soll ja erhalten bleiben. Also musste eine Spezialbürste her Was ist hier so spezial? die Borsten sind aus einem weichen Plastik und vorne irgendwie abgerundet, so dass beim Spülen ein eher "cremiges" Gefühl entsteht, eher wie bei einer Rasierbürste (die gab's mal früher, vor diesen Rasierschaum-Sprühdosen). So bleibt die Patina erhalten und Rest werden sanft entfernt. Der hölzerne Stiel/Griff wirkt sehr wertig und liegt gut in der Hand. In der Praxis: ...ist meine "Patina" noch jung und damit gibt es immer wieder Stellen mit festeren Speiseresten, ich liebe Rührei, so dass manchmal die Fingernägel helfen müssen. Das geht aber problemlos durch die Anbehandlung mit der Bürste. Fazit: wenn ich das eben geschriebene mit etwas Abstand lese, wirkt es schon irgendwie pedantisch bis unnötig aufwändig, bei PTFE-Pfannen flutscht das Zeug einfach runter, aber das Kochen fühlt sich anders an. Das ist wahrscheinlich ein typischer Trend, so wie handgemahlener Kaffee, der in kreisenden Bewegungen aufgebrüht wird. Aber die Bürste ist jedenfalls gut.

Para un sartén de hierro fundido es bien importante no rallarlo, y este cepillo lo hace perfecto, cuida el sartén, recomiendo mucho si lo que quieren es que esté bien cuidado y dure mucho tiempo. La forma en que yo lo limpio es poniendo un poco de jabón en un traste con agua y mojo el cepillo, para cepillar el sartén por todos lados.

ロッジのスキレットを洗うために購入。 使い勝手も良く綺麗に汚れが落ちます。 壊れたらリピートします。

The brush came in a nice box, and seems quite well-built. Good length of timber handle for grip. Let's see how long it can last.
