Hello,
I am a new member to the forum, but I have been browsing for many years. Thank you for all of the help over the years. Henry is my 10 year old green cheek conure and he is the love of my life.
I need a new countertop microwave since my current one that I’ve had for many years is broken. I researched PFAS quite a bit and I’m saddened to find out how many products still contain it. I’ve reached out to Whirlpool, GE, and IKEA to contact their manufacturers to find out if the interior coating, inlet cover, or bulb have PFAS. All have responded that they do not comment specifically on the product content because it is confidential. All of the customer service representatives reached out to a “higher” representative and were denied providing me with the exact content in the products.
I would greatly appreciate if anyone was willing to provide me with a model number of any brand that is currently available that you know to be safe. My concern is that some PFAS compounds are weaker than others and I’m worried that they might off-gas at a lower temperature than previous nonstick coatings. The current model that I have is no longer available and I bought the same brand and size but it has many changes to the interior including a bulb that has a shine to it that has me worried it’s coated. Thank you!
