Hi - thanks for the question. We have sold dozens of this product and similar ones from Nuevo and have not had a single complaint of scratching. I have brushed stainless in my house and it has scratched over time but no more so than wood and glass products I have as well. However, like most products, it probably comes down to individual use and the amount of wear and tear placed on the product. I hope this info helps and please let us know if we can help with additional questions. Thanks - Eric
