Unique Bargains Rectangle Oil-Proof Spill-Proof Water Resistance Table Cover 1 Pc
Skip unless you can verify the coating; budget tablecloths rarely disclose PFAS status.
This Bed Bath & Beyond tablecloth uses an unnamed oil- and water-repellent coating to achieve its stain-resistant properties. water-repellent coating coatings have historically relied on PFAS, but the brand provides no specification or disclosure. No third-party testing or PFAS-free claims are evident.

What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 35% confidence. It is not a lab result.
No independent PFAS lab test is on record for this exact product. A lab test could move the score in either direction.
The brand has not made a specific, verifiable PFAS-free statement, so part of this score reflects that missing disclosure rather than a confirmed material.
Formulations and coatings change between production runs. Always check the current label before buying.
