Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Coating degradation and metal substrate exposure, Aluminum substrate leaching (if aluminum core) and Thermal shock and coating fracturing on the Caraway and not on the Wilton.
  • We flag PTFE fume risk, Coating degradation over time and PFAS in coating on the Wilton and not on the Caraway.
  • The gap is 85 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Caraway is the one to buy.
  • We are less certain about the Wilton grade, at 35% confidence against 80%, because it discloses less.

Both products run through the same public rubric: materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
