Where these two actually differ
- We flag PTFE fume risk (thermal degradation), Coating degradation and particle release, Substrate leaching at high temperature and Microplastic or coating fragment ingestion on the and not on the Weber.
- We flag Silicone additive/filler contamination (unspecified), Thermal degradation at extreme temperatures, Microplastic shedding if mat degrades and Coating degradation or peeling on the Weber and not on the .
- The is Nonstick coating composition not disclosed; marketed as 'reusable' where the Weber is silicone (no nonstick fluoropolymer coating disclosed), which is most of the difference in these two grades.
- The gap is 50 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Weber is the one to buy.
- We are less certain about the grade, at 35% confidence against 78%, because it discloses less.
Both products run through the same public rubric, which covers 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 →
