What Breville says and does about PFAS
Breville’s product chemical disclosure lists the Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro among the products it covers, and the page does not mention PTFE, PFAS or any fluorinated chemical. We found no other Breville statement about PFAS and no independent test of its air fryers or ovens, so check the grade of the exact product you are buying.
