Does the rice bowl have a Teflon lining? I am trying to get away from Teflon.

There is a non-stick coating, I'm just not sure if it's ceramic or Teflon?...

I looked at one in the store. Rice bowl is teflon. Don't know what steamer bowl is--aluminum or stainless.

It does not appear to be coated by Teflon. I would never use Teflon. The pan is not stamped with where it was manufactured. It works very well. I am pleased with it.

The ceramic bowl is NOT coated with a non-stick coating, like teflon or silverstone, but rather the glaze that ALL crocks and ceramic has on its surface and which keeps food, liquids or cleaning solutions from leaching into the bowl itself. The customer service rep was confirming it is not a lead-containing glaze. Have you seen the actual product? 'Not sure why you think there would be an issue, but maybe you could be more specific.

Yes, this West Bend #84866 is lined with a non-stick coating. According to the instruction manual, it is simply referred to as "non-stick finish."I also have a Rival Crockpot, which I use a lot, that is NOT coated with Teflon or Teflon-like coating.

The old model was Teflon. This one has a ceramic lining instead, which is much nicer.

The bowl that you put the rice into is stainless steel. The outside white shell is metal. Not that happy with the performance, as it does not cut out early enough, and therefore the rice gets to hot and dry and sticks hard to the bowl. I have to keep an eye out to switch it off, so now it really is no different than using a pot on the stove. I don't know what brand or type would work better. If you ever find one, let me know.

There isn't a lining. The interior is tye same plastic as the exterior and the heating element is exposed and submerged when filled with water. The element looks to be stainless steel.

I own one just like this model and I'm not sure if it's Teflon...but it is a coated pan. I have had mine for around 3 months and use it 3to 4 times a week. The interior is also coated where the pot sits to heat and I can see no sign of use on either the pan or interior cooking surface area. Very well made.

There's no Teflon or other nonstick coating. The pan is enameled cast iron.... Colored on the outside and very smooth black on the inside. After the hot pan cools, I fill it with warm water and let it sit for a bit. It then wipes clean very easily.

No, it's not Teflon. It's a form of ceramic and by far superior to Teflon in my opinion. I wish all my pans were Ceramic Marble Coated. They're the best pans I have! No fumes.

It may not be "Teflon" brand, but it is the same (or similar) stuff. I really wish this company made a stainless steel version of this pot. I LOVE the pot, but don't like the non-stick crud slowly flaking into my food....

No Teflon coating. I use it in a restaurant and scrub it with steel wool every night and it's as good as new.

I checked the manual and online and the only description of the coating was "non Stick" Teflon was never mentioned. Usually Teflon in mentioned by name if it's used.

I was disappointed to find out it's not coated with ceramic, it is Teflon. It works very well though. Easy to clean.

No. It has no Teflon but cleans easily with a plastic scraper similar to what I use on pampered chef bakeware.

The rice cooker does not identify the specific surface for the actual rice pot or for the interior of the cooker. However, the actual rice pot is easy-clean (teflon?) and the interior of the cooker (though it never seems to need cleaning) is equally easy-clean. No mention of teflon nor stainless steel on the product.
