Frequently Asked Questions
What is the safest material for kitchen appliances that heat food?
Uncoated stainless steel and glass are the safest default choices because they do not rely on PFAS-based non-stick coatings.
Is 'PFOA-free' the same as PFAS-free?
No. PFOA-free only means one PFAS compound was removed. A product can still use PTFE or other PFAS.
Which appliance categories are highest risk for PFAS exposure?
Air fryers, toaster ovens, multicookers, and other appliances with non-stick baskets, trays, or inner pots are the biggest concern.
