I understand that it is made from food grade PVC. Does anyone know about this type of plastic?

A quick Google search might help you. I found out that Food Grade plastics are those that contain no dyes, chemicals or any recycled material that could leach into food (or in this case, water poured through the unit). Hope that helps...

It's made of some kind of plastic. I don't not if it's BPA free or not. If it isn't I am going to throw it away.

Don't think it is PVC, but it feels like a cloth. I keep a mini pig in mine and hehas never escaped.

It is made out of Tritan plastic. This is a tough, clear plastic that is BPA free.

Hi, sorry for slow response. It seems to be a rigid food grade plastic. If you have really strong hands you might be able to squeeze it. I store mine in the fridge, which means I need to let it come up to room temp to get it to pour out. Othewise you could use a table knife and scoop it out. For me it is no big deal, as the quality and concentration is very good.

It's definitely not cheap plastic. I'm not sure exactly what it's made out of very strong and it's very water resistant. It appears to be very high-quality to me and I'm very happy with it. Good luck.

It is made of a very thick and durable plastic. It has held up great for us.

I don't have any knowledge of that. It's plastic. That's all I can tell you.

Plastic. But, it is the special non-toxic variety that does not leach any of its properties into your food. I love this thing!

It appears to be made of plastic and covered with a type of foam rubber. I don't know if there are any harmful chemicals but still the same, I don't think I would eat it either. Just joking. I haven't noticed any ill effects from this product. I really like it.

It is NOT plastic, it is 100% Dupont Nylon; and Champion has used Nylon for as long as I can remember.

This is a vinyl coating, and according to Wikipedia: Polyvinyl chloride is produced by polymerization of the monomer vinyl .... Its melting temperature is 160 C. However, no where on the container does it state that this is a food grade product. It is designed for tools, etc. I would suggest you go to the manufacturer's website and ask that question: www.repair-it-all.com

It seems to be made of a vinyl like plastic. I haven't had any issue with it but I don't leave my child in for that long , just for feeding times and occasional sitting and chilling

It is a type of plastic. You would have to contact Nordic Ware to find out the composition. I've used mine for may years and don't feel there's a problem.

I don't see PVC free anywhere in the description. I see material: PVC, and made of allergen free PVC. It's has a rubbery feel that's all I can say for sure.
