Farberware Nonstick Square Griddle

F · High PFAS

Skip if PFAS-free cookware is a priority; standard nonstick griddle with known Teflon-family coating.

Farberware's nonstick griddles use traditional Teflon-type coating-based nonstick coatings, a well-established Teflon-family coating family. The brand does not disclose PFAS content or claim PFAS-free status. Consumers concerned about PFAS exposure should consider ceramic, cast iron, or stainless-steel alternatives.

What we don’t know

This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 75% 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.
