TSV pan for 9/13 -- two warnings

suzyQ3 — Wed, 13 Sep 2017 18:18:43 GMT

First, I just heard a host say that it is free of any dangerous chemicals. That is NOT true. While it is free of PFOA, it does contain PTFE, which can be dangerous or fatal for birds if used on heat higher than 500 degrees. There is a warning in the Use and Care link.

Second, Meredith keeps touting that you can use the pan on your barbeque; however, again the Use and Care link specifically states not to do so.

I will also post this in CC.

i purchased it in the red because i love this particular line.....already own three other pieces of it. made two soups the other day in them.i dont have birds and no longer have a bbq. i will say that they do call this lightweight, but it is not THAT "light." it is very durable if anyone is on the fence about this.

@sunshine45, I have no problem with the pan; I do have a problem with misinformation that could cause many people to have major problems.

They definitely need to give correct information. That is very misleading.

So agree! They take the time to tout "PFOA-free" so they clearly are aware of the issues surrounding these chemicals.

Saved me some money when I heard it presented the first time. They stated it was a teflon coating. I got rid of all of those and don't want anymore. I would've probably ordered it if it was a chemical free inside. I didn't need another pan anyway.

I cancelled mine when I realized it was Teflon. I threw all mine away years ago. It chipped off little pieces and was a true mess. I am sure they have improved it since then, but I don't buy Teflon anymore. BTW, there's one black one left - the one I cancelled.

Thank you for this information. I thought it was a porcelain enamel interior. I don't want tefflon. Now I see that is the exterior! Why!?! I have great non stick pots and pans with porcelain enamel in them.

I canceled my order after reading that it was Teflon. No thank you, QVC.

I also heard David say during a presentation that you might see black marks on the inside where you are stirring. He said not to worry, that it is the teflon showing under the color. Well, what's the point of buying a pretty color if it is going to scrape off?

Thanks for the information. I thought about buying it, but decided to pass. Glad I did!
