Is the plastic container BPA-free?

See the Wikipedia article on plastics, which says most plastics leach into food. BPA is just the worst one. Glass would be the best option, if anyone sold it that way anymore.

Yes, it's BPA free! I went to their Facebook page to ask and the answer was already posted.

The container shows no indication either way; you'd need to contact the manufacturer.

I called the company and was told that all plastic in the kettle is BPA-free. Glad there are others who are concerned about this as well :)

YES, the plastic is completely free of BPA. Like most household beverage and food storage containers, this teamaker is made of polyethylene plastic. BPA is not used in the manufacture of polyethylene. People who say things like "Lethal, poisonous plastic smell and taste" about this may believe what they're feeling, but it isn't because this product actually has any "Lethal, poisonous plastic" in it.

April I cannot say it is for sure. But I have emailed the seller and will post their response when I get it. **Update** I received a response from WFN and the container is BPA free!!

Yes it's BPA free. It has a "BPA-free" symbol on the right top corner of the packaging.

Mine stated that it was BPA free on the packaging when I got it. Also, the interior of the thermos is uncoated stainless steel, which is BPA free, always.

I checked on-line and I do not think the container is BPA free, but you can get an upgraded one for about $35.00 at this site--http://www.discountjuicers.com/vitamixcontainer.html Wish you the best. Leigh

The container is plastic. I am not aware if these compounds are present or not in the material, but they hold up pretty well.

Yes, mine is marked as plastic number 5. Which is supposed to be BPA free and safe.

It is in a plastic jar but it doesn't specifically state BPA free. I assume it is however. It has seemed to be a quality product to me so far.

The container is made of polycarbonate and I don't know if it is BPA free. It is a great blender, unbeatable in power for frostiness and smoothies.

Hmm...plastic container and rubbery top seem pretty solid; however, I don't know if is BPA free. Might need to find out from manufacturer.

I checked with the company to verify what I thought and YES, the container is BPA free. Wilderness Family Naturals are wonderful products and their attention to quality ingredients and packaging is outstanding. I hope this helps. You can google their site to look around, call to ask questions, and read about the products.

I wish it was, but as it came out long before the BPA news, I doubt it is. I really wish Oster would make a BPA-free updated version of this, because I loved mine! ... for now, it's glass Ball jars. Don't fit well in a cupholder, but less potentially toxic.

This is Teri Vitallo, a representative from Thermos, and I wanted to clarify that our FUNtainer bottles and food jars are made with BPA FREE materials. Thank you for your interest.

Hello Anne. There is no indication that this jug is BPA free nor do I expect it to be so. A good majority of containers (especially those used in the fields of medicine or other sciences) contain BPA to improve the overall durability of the plastic. It is also important to note that this item is not made from HDPE but from LDPE- the description is a bit misleading to some.

I am fairly confident that these containers do not contain bpa. The recycling code marked on the containers is a 5, which indicates polypropylene. According to Wikipedia, "plastics that are marked with Resin Identification Codes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 are very unlikely to contain BPA. Some, but not all, plastics that are marked with the Resin Identification Code 7 may be made with BPA."[40]
