    I thought there was a class action lawsuit against the company for faking “ceramic” coating while still using PTFE.

      No, they called it a non-stick non-toxic coating, they didn’t originally claim ceramic.

      They claim the new surface is ceramic (and it looks plausible from seeing how damaged pans look in photos)

        This is what im vaguely aware of: There have been several lawsuits against ceramic non-stick pan brands, most notably a recent $2.5 million class action settlement with HexClad, which faced claims of false advertising about the presence of toxic chemicals like PFAS and PFOA. Additionally, a class action lawsuit against Blue Diamond, filed in 2020, alleged the pans were not as non-stick as advertised. A similar suit against GreenPan was filed in 2019 but was ultimately dismissed.

      Oh nice!

      Micro-Class-Action-Lawsuit payout for all of the micro-plastics in my body.

      As if the payouts aren’t already a joke.
