By encouraging her daughter to order a set of ceramic pans from GreenPan, Noëlla really thought she was doing the right thing. But she wondered when she saw the state of the stoves while cooking for her grandson.
“GreenPan’s ceramic non-stick coating would ensure that these pans are not sensitive to scratches and high temperatures”, explains Noëlla Appermans to our colleagues at HBvL. However, a year following the purchase, the non-stick coating of her daughter’s pans shows small craters.
“It’s really unhealthy, isn’t it?” she wonders. GreenPan claims that these defects do not affect the quality of the stoves and do not present any danger, since they are manufactured without PTFE, PFOA, PFAS, cadmium and lead.
The company did, however, make a move by sending back a new set of pans, as well as an extra pan for the inconvenience.
