Rachael Ray Enamel on Steel 12-Quart Covered Stockpot
Lower PFAS concern, enamel on steel is a non-nonstick, traditionally safe cookware choice.
This stockpot uses enamel coating over steel, a traditional cookware construction without nonstick properties, which carries lower inherent PFAS risk compared to Teflon-family coating-coated pans. Rachael Ray makes no PFAS claims for this product.

Why this grade

What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 78% 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.
