Both the older [French] and newer [Chinese] models of the T-Fal 14" Jumbo Wok are marked: NO PFOA, NO Lead, NO Cadmium; and have a 14" outer Lip diameter with a depth of 3-1/4" bottom-to-lip, and hold 3-Quarts to the Rivets about 1" below the Lip. Neither is marked as the 'Professional Series' and the packaging does not state 'Profession Series. -note- That the 'Professional Series' features the 'Expert' {Prometal Pro} interior base with the Red Thermo-Spot and the hexagon metallic pattern. ~ RHF

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!

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 ~

Unfortunately, no. This particular item is manufactured in China, but it does not contain lead. Still, don't let the country of origin dissuade you from purchasing this dutch oven. It is a very serviceable pot, and has performed very well for me over the years.

It's about 4-1/2 inches diameter of flat. Just enough to keep the pan steady. Most of the pan's bottom is curved like a traditional wok. Works great on an electric stove top, particularly glass tops which just would not work at all with a typical round bottom wok. The small flat bottom also spreads cooking oil out just enough to make it more efficient as well.

It's the dimensions of the actual bowl. This wok is a thing of beauty. Love cast iron!

I just called Breville and it is NOT PTFE or PFOA free [I have a bird so I cannot have cookware or electrics that contain PTFE/PFOA] it's hard to get answers, but Breville, Cusinart and Calapholon ALL have their toaster & toaster convection combo ovens contain a non-stick coating with PTFE/PFOA. I'm calling Oster next, but they are closed now for the night. PS: to get an accurate answer on this type of "chemical" technical question, you really have to get to the corporate level [not the 800 CS] to get the ACTUAL info, many CS's said they were "free" but no one could show me on their websites where that was in writing. That's when each of the above co's got corporate involved, then either I was connected or they returned my call, then gave me the above info.

No it is not..you will ruin the non-stick surface. I purchased some inexpensive wood utensils. I will say that the wok is well made and conducts heat very well. Bottom line, hand wash and wood utensils. Gets to hot for plastic type utensils.

Teflon is a brand, this is not Teflon! Yes it is BPA free. Yes it does contain PFOA. The product is called Xylan. It is FDA approved. I will die from eating sausage patties that I intend to make on it before the coating will kill me! Don't be an alarmist, call Cuisinart! Great customer service! Oh, she said watch out if you have small birds in close to where you are using it. That's why I haven't self cleaned my oven yet, I have a dog and a husband and it is winter...P.S. You should smell my new oven when I turn it on!

I'm not sure what PFOA and PTFE means, but the cookware is incredibly nice for the price and is definitely non-stick. We don't put it in the dishwasher or use metal utensils with it while cooking. Hope this helps.

In my opinion it's a wok. I LOVE IT...I've had ones in the past that had the teflon coating that eventually wore off. This one is perfect! Best one I have ever had and I've had several. I would highly recommend it!! 100% great purchase!!

The description says "Quantanium interior" which at best is only PFOA free. The PTFE is still needed for the nonstick results.

my wok is an Eastman 22" stainless steel (by now well seasoned) 7" deep. Is that deep? I do not know. With the 64000 BTU burner it cooks large quantities very fast and with the bamboo baskets inserts is great for poaching (steaming) fish with vegetables in the upper trays. Takes but 12 minutes to do a 2# piece of halibut or salmon wrapped in cheese cloth.

It's 8 1/4". I wish Circulon still makes the old style wok which I still using it now for the time being even though the bottom of the wok is no longer nonstick & can't find the infor how to fix it :( does any body knows?

I am sorry I cannot answer that question. On my best guess I would say that it does have PFOA coating, but if you use the pan correctly not over heating it, it works just great and does not emit any fumes that may be harmful!

The 14 inch has plenty of room to cook for even a family. I bought the 16 inch and my regular cook stove doesn't have enough heat to get it up to temperature. Regarding handles, I prefer one long handle so I can pick the wok up one handed, leaving my other hand to work the tools.

We use ours with a round bottom wok and it works perfectly. Not sure if it is 14" or not, but it is an excellent burner for a wok.
