Hi, is the interior coating enamel? If not, is it PFOA free? Thanks.

The interior coating is enamel which, I believe, means it is PFOA free. It is not non-stick.

Cast iron interior and what the heck is PFOA? Major cooking done in Le Creuset and has been for years and I ain't dead yet!!

Greetings, The interior is cast iron. I do not know what PFOA is. We are happy with the various sizes and use them regularly with no bad effects. Enjoy!

Yes Le Creuset prides itself on making cookware minus the toxins. I believe that only certain lines of Le Creuset do this though. Please do a search on Le Creuset to see their policy. I would have provided a link to search but Amazon blocked me from doing that. Nice play, Amazon. You want me to help customers but you block any searching that a client provides. :-/ Also, cast iron is a great way to cook anyway. Pans are heavy, but my health is more important!

I only wish I could say the interior of this pan is enamel. Its a newer finish which is not as easy to care for as enamel. It do not believe the finish contains PFOA's. Hope this helps!

The inside is coated with cream-colored enamel; it's a great pot...I use it all the time.

Why would you say "Yes, absolutely" ??? I can find nothing on the Ecolution website saying what exactly their "Hydrolon" nonstick surface material is made of,only that it is made without PFOA. In fact, everything I've found on the web suggests that it *is* PTFE only processed without using PFOA. Either way, it's a good griddle. Ours is 3 years old, is used about once a week, and the surface is still as good as new. And PTFE is the most inert substance imaginable - keep it below 500F and there are no health risks.

I just got information directly from Cuisinart that it does in fact have a light grey non-stick coating on the interior. It's called Lexon and contains PTFE/PFOA. I am disappointed and will be returning my brand new unit without opening.

from Presto Customer Service, Our current model, stock number 07115, is ceramic coated and does NOT have PTFE or PFOA. All other griddles/skillets do have PTFE and PFOA.

Received this pan today and the packaging states "PFOA-free nonstick surface..."

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".

It's an enamel, non-stick coating. Haven't had any problems with it-used it for about 2 months.

Yes, the interior is Porcelain Enamel, rust proof. The pot works very well but is smaller than pictured although it WILL hold 40 oz barely.

I love the griddle, I can't say anything about its PTFE-free or PFOA free. All I can tell you is I am really enjoying the griddle, its great for a lot of uses, Its easy to clean, and I like that! But all in all I am a very satisfied customer.

No - metal on inside is not coated with enamel.looks great though! have to admit I never used it as now living with induction cooktop and this is not for induction heat.

I got the answer directly from Cuisinart this morning: Yes, the non-stick interior does have a light grey PTFE/PFOA non-stick coating called Lexon. It looks like metal because of the color but is a non-stick coating. I was disappointed to hear this and will be returning my unit, which I bought based on the erroneous "No Teflon" answers.

After contacting the company, I got an answer from "Elizabeth"(she says she is the only Elizabeth there). According to her, she and other customer service reps are told to answer inquiries regarding this, that what the interior coating is composed of "is proprietary information of the company". That's it. That is all they will tell you. AND, its made in China. So, do you really want to put your health in the hands of this company?? Beautiful oven, but such an answer is insulting, and simply not good enough. period.

I don;t think you have to worry about PTFE and PFOA since the cooker is not made of plastic(inside). It is made of stainless steel that does not contain PTFE and PFOA. The outside material does not effect what you are cooking in any way. I chose this product out of many because it is steel surface on the inside, including the steaming tray so I did not have to worry about PTFE and PFOA as well. Very happy with it. Hope it helps...

Teflon or not, it has a non stick coating, which to me indicates that it does release PFOA. Wilton doesn't provide any specifics on the coating that I could find, but unless it's bare metal, the coating is there. I'm still blissfully using mine though.

The package says it is free of PTFE and PFOA and that it is made from ceramic and is completely eco-friendly. Since BPA is a by-product of plastic and resins and this pan does not contain either then that would suggest that it is BPA free.

Hello, I am not sure about the PTFE's or the PFOA's ... I do however, feel that it scratches WAY less that the 'Ozeri" Green Pan from Germany. And in my opinion I feel that any material coming off and presenting itself to your food is bad. So regardless if it is a "so Called" Green Pan from Germany ... flaking off is No Bueno. I purchased this Cuisinart 10' about a year ago and it looks great. I recently bought the 8'. Ciao & Blessings ~
