The pot is made in China or Japan. I assume you can trust the "Safe for cooking" ad.

hi there! I don't know where it is made....no markings on the pot itself....if i had to guess i would probably say China....which i don't like buying from....but do like the pot although thinner and not as heavy as my others.....does have a lip to pour water out without taking off the top...hope this helps!

As far as I know, yes. There cannot be any cookware in North America that contains lead.

I checked the pot and all the parts and it doesn't say anywhere on it where it's made. But it is worth the money to buy it. Well made!

Mine is currently in use, thus I cannot look at the bottom or inside of it, but the product description says: "The crock is 100% lead free vitrified porcelain." We've been using our for several years and no signs of lead poisoning yet. (some delirium and lots of insanity however).

The pot was not marked. From my on line research, it appears it was made in China.

The pot is aluminum with a ceramic coating on the inside. I am however, getting some shipping of the ceramic coating; so I'm not too pleased with the product. Jim

Made in Malaysia, lead safe-not sure about paint. I haven't had any issues at all-we love ours!

I share your concerns with anything made/coming out of China! Pot is a beautiful stainless steel w/copper bottom. No leaching. I am a vegetarian, very sensitive to impurities. I enjoy every cup of tea I make. I love my tea pot.

I'm sorry, but I can't determine where it was made. The pot is used and the marking on the bottom is very worn. However, I disagree with Mr. Mehaffie's answer. The pot I have is very easy to clean, much like those my mother owned.

Each time I have made food in this, it has not stuck. Maybe if you burn your food it will stick, but I have never burnt anything in this pot. Also, most ceramic crock pots contain lead in the glaze, leak lead into your food, are made in China or all the above. If you are looking for a crock pot substitute that does not leak lead into your food, and is made in the USA, then that is why you would choose this one over a normal crock pot.

I don't recall seeing a warning. I believe it is just porcelain coated. It works great but let us know if there is a lead issue.

The box indicates that the ceramic coating is from Germany, but there is no information on the pot or on its box about where it was made or put together. It is extremely well made of heavy materials.

Yes, the pot itself is ceramic. My wife and I really love this slow cooker. The hinged lid is fantastic!

I have no clue about the lead, contact the manufacturer Lodge Cast Iron. It is made in the USA, contact the manufacturer about the content of the griddle

Good question, but I don't have an answer. I just looked at the bottom of the pot, and it didn't say anything about it. Probably made in china then as they are trying not to disclose the information.

Im on the search for a lead free slow cooker. I called the company and they claim the ceramic pot, and enamel/glaze on the pot are lead free. Ive also read blogs and comments of other women calling and getting the same answer, and even doing their own lead test at home, that showed negative results for lead.
