Where these two actually differ
- We flag Clad separation or delamination over time on the Made In and not on the Wonderchef.
- We flag PTFE fume risk (heat exposure), Coating degradation and ingestion, Aluminum leaching and Manufacturing standard variability on the Wonderchef and not on the Made In.
- The Made In is Stainless steel clad construction, no nonstick coating where the Wonderchef is Granite non-stick coating, composition unspecified, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
- The gap is 85 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Made In is the one to buy.
- We are less certain about the Wonderchef grade, at 35% confidence against 90%, because it discloses less.
