Is this skillet PFOA free?

What I do know is: This Cusinart Frittata pan is the best in design, weight, finish, and latch that we have ever used. People to whom I gave this pan are ecstatic over it. Art Holman, Black Mountain, NC

According to the answer given here http://www.everythingkitchens.com/cuisinart-frittata-skillets-fp2-24bk.html to a similar question, it appears that it does contain PFOA.

I think so but not 100% sure. I do know that this is the best pan I have ever owned. It has never been in a dish washer! Wipe it out with a damp cloth and your done.

I cannot tell you definitively - one would have to look on the packaging which in my case is long gone. I do not recall any specific mention of teflon in the product description, however.

I did not see anything about it being PFOA so I cant honestly give you an answer to that, I'm sorry, only that it is PTFE!

Not sure. But Amazon has a site dedicated to your question: http://www.amazon.com/Best-PFOA-Cookware-Nonstick-Eco-Friendly/lm/R3LCDXHCVIXTS9Sorry for the long site, copy and paste is best.

Sorry, i've no idea about PTFE, but this pot is nonstick. The inside is course, I like this small pot.

The correct answer is yes. From the item description on the Vollrath site - "S5220 coated with non-stick SteelCoat X3™ (made without PFOA) for easy food release and cleaning".

PFOA emission (used in making Teflon) is likely toxic, but PTFE (Teflon) itself is ok.www.webmd.com/cancer/features/teflon-pans

There is no information on the box regarding pfoa coating. It shows as being slide and sear nonstick. Hope this helps.

I wasn't sure and Googled it. The Anolon website says the bronze style is PFOA-free. I kept looking around and I found this on the website posted the bottom of this letter. "Anolon and Circulon (as well as all cookware in the USA) will be 95% PFOA-free by 2010. And all cookware sold in the USA will be completely PTFE-free by 2015." Be that as it may, I have noted multiple small areas of pitting with loss of the coating on two of my three Anolon pots (but none of the pans), so it's not a fluke. The white pits are about a millimeter across, maybe a bit less, and are very noticable against the dark gray coating. PFOA or not, the nonstick coating is not staying attached as well as it should. I only use silicone rubber utensils so it's not due to that. Not only that, on the bottom of the Anolon cakepan I bought it is starting to develop some tiny areas of rust. Maybe it got scratched from the oven racks, but there is no other reason I can think of since I take good care of them. Considering how much I paid for these, I'm not so unhappy with them that I am going to replace them since I don't have $$$ to burn (pun intended). Nonetheless, knowing what I know now, I'd recommend going with a different brand. I hope this helps. http://au.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090115164632AARg63g

I am curious about the same thing - this oven looks perfect for my family EXCEPT the non stick interior - PFOA is no joke people. Stay as far away from non stick as you can get. If I end up ordering this oven, it will only be if I find out the non stick does not contain perfluorocarbons. Look them up. They are bad news.

This pan utilizes a natural stone-derived coating from Germany that achieves non-stick perfection while remaining 100% free of PFOA, a harmful chemical found in traditional cookware. Now Ozeri 8" Green Earth Textured Ceramic Nonstick Frying Pan is 100-Percent PTFE and PFOA Free. I hope this helps you.

According to Presto Customer Service the only model they have that is PTFE and PFOA is model 07115, which is a skillet versus a griddle. Here is their response "Our current model, stock number 07115, is ceramic coated and does NOT have PTFE or PFOA. All other griddles do have PTFE and PFOA."

Nordicware only says what it is not. They use PTFE (which is in brand name Teflon, but they don't use duPont's version) in some of their stove stop ware, but not in the bakeware. FAQ says: "Our bakeware coatings are and have always been PTFE and PFOA-free, since an entirely different formulation is necessary to release sugars (associated with baking) than proteins (associated with meats and dairy)." from https://www.nordicware.com/faq#faq-18988

Just found this link. Great info and I'm confident that Airbake pans are safe and pfoa free. My opinion only. Good luck! I wish I had found this link earlier when I was researching cast aluminum bakeware. http://www.environmentalhealth.ca/greatchefs.htmAlso, photos of product (at least on my phone) are a little misleading because the pans look dark but in real life, they are the bright shiny aluminum.

Their website says it is PFOA free. http://www.vinarozcookware.com/aluminumdiecast.htm

A quick Google search reveals the actual product page on the manufacturer's website. On there, it lists them as being PFOA free: http://store.calphalon.com/productline/pfoa-free-nonstick-calphalon-unison-nonstick/4294959916-4294938856

While I do not know the answer, I'd recommend asking Cuisinart directly, as they would have the information you want. Also, apparently Teflon is no longer created with PFOA & there are supposedly lots of nonstick coatings that aren't dangerous, but don't take my word for it, it's just something I was reading. Still, recommend asking Cuisinart, because unless the customers on Amazon happen to have taken part in the manufacturing, they most likely do not know. :(

PTFE is used in teflon products, this pan is hard anondized, so yes it is PTFE free
