Revere 7" x 10.5" Rectangular Baking Dish Pan Brownie Roasting Cookie Bread Ware
Contact Revere about the coating before buying this pan.
This Revere baking dish has an unspecified coating on steel. The company gives no PFAS information, so you'd need lab testing to know what you're getting.

Material
Steel baking pan, coating unspecified
Brand disclosure
Brand is silent on PFAS
Lab data
No public lab test
What’s concerning
Non-stick, chemistry undisclosed
Advertised as non-stick but coating type is not explained.
No PFAS disclosure
The company has not publicly discussed PFAS in this product.
Category baseline
cookware is a category where PFAS exposure is more common.
Coating degradation and metal leaching
Unknown coating composition means risk of degradation over years of use. If the coating chips or peels, bare steel can rust and potentially contribute iron or other metals to food, though in negligible amounts for occasional use.
Teflon-type coating fume risk (if coating contains Teflon)
If Revere uses a nonstick Teflon-type coating-based coating, overheating above 500°F can release fluorinated gases. The coating type is undisclosed, making this risk unquantifiable. Standard baking use (300-425°F) poses minimal fume risk even with Teflon-type coating, but disclosure is necessary.
Rust and corrosion if coating fails
Steel substrates without protective coating will rust if left wet or stored improperly. Rust itself is not acutely toxic, but can compromise the pan's function and appearance, signaling time to replace.
What’s reassuring
Lead
No recalls or public complaints of lead/cadmium in Revere baking pans are on record. Modern US cookware is subject to FDA limits, but absence of disclosure means this cannot be independently verified for this model.
Source: ATSDR ↗Allergen or chemical off-gassing from coating during initial use
No established reports of VOCs or odors from Revere baking pans at normal baking temperatures. A new pan smell on first use is typical and dissipates quickly.
The full breakdown
What it's made of and why it matters
This is a steel baking pan with an unspecified surface coating. Steel itself is inert and food-safe, but the coating applied to prevent rust and sticking is the critical unknown. Revere does not publicly disclose whether the coating contains Teflon-type coating (Teflon-like), ceramic, enamel, or silicone. Without knowing the coating type and PFAS content, the safety profile remains incomplete. Over time, any coating can chip, scratch, or degrade with use, exposing bare steel underneath.
The brand's record and disclosure
Revere is a well-established American cookware brand (owned by World Kitchen) with a long history but minimal public transparency on coating chemistry or PFAS status. No major safety recalls for this specific product are on record. The brand has not issued a clear statement confirming PFAS-free coatings or disclosing which coating technology they use. This silence is the primary reason to approach with caution until Revere provides written confirmation.
How it compares in its category
Steel baking pans are generally safer than nonstick alternatives because they avoid Teflon-type coating fume risk, but only if uncoated or coated with transparent, durable materials. This Revere model sits in the mid-range price segment where coating details are often withheld. Ceramic-coated or glass-lined alternatives from brands with clearer disclosure (e.g., Emile Henry, Le Creuset) offer more confidence, though at higher cost. Bare steel pans with no coating avoid the mystery entirely.
If you buy it
Use at moderate to moderately high heat (do not exceed 400-425°F unless Revere specifies higher); sustained high heat may degrade the coating faster. Hand wash rather than dishwasher to extend coating life. Inspect the coating regularly for chips, cracks, or discoloration; if damage occurs and bare metal shows, retire the pan. Store dry to prevent rust. Before purchase, contact Revere customer service and request written confirmation of the coating type and PFAS-free status.
