About VettedClean

VettedClean is a one-person editorial project. I'm Jonathan Amparo — a software engineer who reviews cookware and water filtration the way I'd research them for my own kitchen: by reading the underlying certifications, the third-party testing, and the regulatory docs, then writing it down for the next person who has the same question.

We don't do scare tactics. We don't tell you to throw out everything you own. The reality is that PFAS, microplastics, and other contaminants are everywhere — but you also replace cookware and filters on a normal cadence anyway. Swap when you replace is the entire idea.

What we cover at launch

• Cookware — PFAS-free pans, ceramic, cast iron, stainless steel, carbon steel.
• Water filtration — pitcher, countertop, under-sink, and whole-house filters with NSF P473 (PFAS-specific) certification or equivalent third-party testing.

Expansion pillars (kid/baby, personal care, home goods, cleaning, apparel) ship as the site earns the audience to support them.

Editorial principles

• Health and toxicity claims are always cited from third parties — EWG, Made Safe, NSF, peer-reviewed research, regulators.
• Quality and usability claims are first-person — we use the things we recommend.
• Affiliate links are disclosed in plain language above the fold of every article.
