I am shopping for a new (electric) oven and am looking at the JennAir JIS1420DS. I was directed by someone to check out here what noodles123 wrote and learned of 2 other things to check for.
PTFE= polytetrafluoroethyline, PFOA=Perfluorooctanoic acid, PFCs=Perfluorinated compounds, PFAS= polyfluoroalkyl substances and Teflon...anything with "fluoro" in it..."
I again called JennAir as they already confirmed there were no PTFE?s, PFOA?s or formaldehyde in the oven but this is the response for these PFC and PFA?s: After researching the potential for PFE's and PFAS's, the MSDS sheets that are available to us only have a breakdown of specific parts and not an overall listing for the appliance. So what do they mean by ?Overall listing for the appliance?? Doesn?t all those parts make up a ?whole? oven? I responded to that email with that question and received this response: We apologize for the confusion over MSDS sheets. Material Safety Data Sheets are available for separate, chemically-based products such as touch-up paint, Affresh cleaners, gear case oil, etc. Therefore, MSDS sheets are only available for those specific parts, not the overall appliance.
Are there any bird owners that have a JennAir (electric only) oven they bought more recently? Any chemists out here that can educate me if this over all would be safe as I do believe it is safe to say about it not having gear case oil LOL. This brand does not have that self-cleaning mode but rather they do it differently using water. It does not burn it off as well as the self-cleaning models do, but is safe for the birds.
FYI, Whirlpool makes JennAir, Amana, KitchenAid and Maytag.
