Question from cvlamarr
Hello

“Extra thick aluminum base: perfect heat distribution and even cooking” is fine as the aluminum does not come in contact with the food. “3 layers of Titanium-reinforced non-stick coating: resists scratches and abrasions” to the best of my knowledge this is still a teflon-like coating, just reinforced with titanium, so I can’t recommend it as safe.
“Exterior non-stick coating: worry-free cleaning and maintenance” if this is a teflon-like coating, it would be releasing toxic fumes into the air during use, even if the coating does not come in contact with the food. This evaluation is based on the little data you gave me.
