We take it and really like it...but only question is why is it a BPA lined container? you thing they would package it in Glass or #5

yes the company could consider if if enough people talk about it. glass probably not worth it though with the weight of shipping, etc. its a weight sensitive business with shipping to agents and people across country

I agree! How can we request a glass container? I would gladly pay a bit more postage to have no BPA in the container!

This particular one comes in a glass bottle but it is packaged and shipped very well to avoid breakage. There are other choices if you are looking for a plastic bottle but in my opinion the quality and taste is much better in this glass bottle.

If the product says BPA free I am assuming the whole product has to be BPA free. From what I know glass is naturally BPA free. I may be wrong but I have a 3 year old and I try my best to get him the least toxic stuff. From my research this is one of the safest.

BPA is not the only synthetic material to be concerned about. In my opinion, drinking from the top where these materials are, you are passing hot liquid though it, and ingesting it on a daily basis. So that negates the goal of going stainless steel/no plastic. Again, BPA is only the beginning of what we should really be concerned about.

It came in Plastic but you can get it in a glass bottle, if you got to their actual website it might be a bit pricer because I believe it's a bit bigger than the plastic one.

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.

This cup is BPA free plastic. I have it and I love it. It fits pretty well in the cup holder in my car and keeps the tea warm for a good while. It doesn't get too hot to hold like glass would. It stays a comfortable warm that is wonderful in cold temperatures. I would look at the Tao of Tea site to see if they have a glass one there for you. I get most of my teas from them and have gotten 4 of 5 tea pots from them as well. I hope this helps.

Yes. It's definitely BPA free. I just saw the other reply. Edit: I could have sworn it was labeled BPA free. Sorry. I see from the website that they used to be labelled BPA free but removed it and are working on the issue. They also offer it in glass jars, which I prefer.

no it is not glass it is a BPA-free plastic. I do prefer glass for a baby bottle but bottles get thrown and fall all of the time so this just works better.

Rather than comment on whether my container is BPA free I suggest determining whether your container is BPA free. You never know when or if they may switch materials. You can check this by looking for the number inside the recycle triangle. A "7" inside the recycle triangle indicates that the plastic is not BPA free - but not all "7"s contain BPA. A "2","4" or "5" in the triangle indicates it is BPA free and the safest. Your best bet is to ask the mfg'r. Mine is BPA free. To say it is food grade and therefore safe is a bit misleading. Plastics 1 through 7 are all used with food and so are food grade. However, like "7", some have cautions regarding use. Mine is BPA free.

Unfortunately it is plastic. I order this product from iHerb because they carry the glass bottle. it's a tiny bit more; maybe a dollar, but I will pay more for a glass bottle. I really like this stuff. I use it everyday.

No. It's plastic or similar which is a big bummer as I don't see any signal that it is BPA - free. If someone knows if it is BPA -free please mention! Thanks! Otherwise it's nice design in every way.

glass but I've never had a problem with them breaking. or maybe you just wanted to make sure it was BPA free. i love it and mix a little with lemon in my ice water and it tastes like weak iced tea. very yummy!

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!!

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.

On the bottom of the container is displayed "1.7L / 67 OZ / 1.8 QT". I have been looking BPA or BIS free containers to hold water out of my Berkey filter. This was one on the only containers I could find. Glass is too heavy, thus...... the search continues.
