There's a California Proposition 65 Warning in the Info section. What warrants the warning? i.e. Chemicals in the red paint?

I have to admit that I cannot understand completely the reason behind this. After reading through the information again, I have to assume it must be something with the paint. The finish on this cart seems to be a good quality paint with a nice film strength. Of course it is impossible to determine the exact makeup of the paint without significant testing. While it MAY contain some quantity of lead in the paint (or possibly another chemical..??), I personally would not be concerned unless I intended to use the cart as a direct food-contact surface. Sorry, that's all the information I have. It MIGHT be possible to contact the manufacturer (or supplier..) directly. Perhaps they could offer some additional insight.

First of all I don't live in California. Second, why don't you actually read the warning? It's just a warning the company has to provide for legal reasons. This item isn't made from lumber, glass or cement. HOPE THIS WAS HELPFUL!

Yes, it does. On the tag, it states: "California Proposition 65: the brass in this product contains lead. Warning: this product contains one or more chemicals know to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.

Because California likes to slap warnings on just about everything. This teether is made from food grade silicone which is not a carcinogen. I have no idea how it would have come by the warning, but I'm not terribly concerned about it. Sometimes it feels like EVERYTHING causes cancer, and silicone is nowhere near the top of the list of my concerns. But hey, way to take a feature used to gain information about a product and turn it into a BS sanctimommy judgement. Kudos. Edit: maybe a better question would be WHY does this product have a prop 65 warning attached. That's actually a useful product question, and I'd be interested in the answer. :-p

Hi Anthony,The bottle I have doesn't have the prop 65 warning on it. I e-mailed the company that makes sonne's #7 to get you the correct answer to this question. I will have the answer to you tomorrow since their company is closed today. Thank you, Sandy

It has a California Proposition 65 Warning: "This product contains chemicals known to cause birth defects or reproductive harm".

Dint buy this kettle. I bought it after much research looking for a bps free and not made in china product and was excited to get this however when we received it- upon opening the box there is a message on the box that says the product has been deemed unsafe by California proposition 65. Upon further research I found that proposition 65 'Proposition 65 regulates substances officially listed by California as causing cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm in two ways'. So FORGET BUYING THIS- god knows what is in the plastic or anything!!! An very disappointed and back to hunting again. Ugh Dint buy this kettle.

Type in proposition 65 salt lams and read it. This item should not be sold!

I am not familiar with Proposition 65 - Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 in California. I would treat this as a warning -- move on with using the product (which I love) because it is obviously very minimal impact due to the size of the stools. Check the rules on the proposition and decide for yourself is you should return them. I do not recall such a sticker on mine when I received them but maybe it applies to the state they are being shipped to.

I don't know the answer regarding CA Prop 65 but I do know this is the worst protein powder I have ever used. I have tried to use it since it wasn't cheap but the chalky taste is just TERRIBLE.

Presumably you purchased a California-bound product. Prop 65 is a unique California statute that requires warning for trace amounts of various chemicals. Some of these are naturally-occurring. For details, I would suggest going to the product website - at this link http://www.genesispureteampritchard.com/uploads/2/4/9/1/24915939/faq.pdf and scrolling down to their explanation on Prop 65. I have no independent knowledge about this product, but I presume this is the issue.

As far as I know, the CA Prop 65 applies to the drinking water of that state and any possible chemicals in the water. Since you are not drinking either the salt or the basket, I believe its safe. I've had mine in use for over 2 years and have no ill effects whatsoever. Neither have any of my pets.

Customer support said that it has California proposition 65 warning. So it is not free of carcinogens.

I believe it has to do with trace amounts of lead in items grown in soil, which is practically unavoidable. Google Prop 65 and try calling Vibrant Health for clarification. You probably got a container meant for California.

California is stupid. anything from a plastic water bottle to gasoline has that warning.

Some states require Prop 65 warnings on basically everything. I'm assuming this company is based in CA, since that's where these warnings are most prevalent. You might notice it on buildings, too. This isn't condemnation of the product - it's a fact of life in CA.

That reply doesn't make sense at all! The warning has nothing to do with conforming to regulations -- it is about containing harmful chemicals....I'm guessing that rep has no clue what the prop 65 warning is.I submitted a question on their site too, so I will post again if I get a different response.Thanks for the reply!
