I purchased the 8" and 10" Venice Pro Ceramic Stainless Steel fry pans because they said they were stainless steel but when I received them, it said they had a layer of aluminum in them. The description did not reveal this information. I was a little disappointed but they assure you, you are not exposed to any chemicals. The pots are great so for. I always cook my food at a medium temperature and everything so for has been great and does not stick. You can just wipe the pot out and it looks new. I would recommend the pots to anyone looking for chemical free cookware.
