Why does this product have the California Prop 65 warning with it?

Because the state of CA requires them to put it there if it can be distributed into CA. May be lead or any number of other things that the product could have in it or may not have in it.... Read here: http://www.oehha.ca.gov/prop65/background/p65plain.html

It is NOT lead free. In product details you can read: Proposition 65 warning!

The packaging I received does have a Prop 65 warning saying it contains chemicals known to the state of CA to cause cancer and/or birth defects...I'm assuming that includes lead.

All nutritional supplements in California contain this warning due to Prop 65. I would not worry about it, because ALL supplements say this.

VIRTUALLY ALL products have THAT SAME WARNING. California is full of attorneys who love to sue companies and that warning is put on virtually all products sold in california. Some companies actually refuse to sell in CA because of their tort laws.

Yes, the warning is on the tag. It says: "The product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and/or birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling." I guess I'll be returning mine...

There's no mention in the manuals or on the plates either. There are no California-type warnings anywhere on it or in the manual.

I cancelled my order after reading the Prop 65 warning and today I just saw this update. Thanks for the update. If Amazon is in error they should go ahead and remove the warning. Its confusing the customers.

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.

No, honestly I can't see why this is an issue. The handle comes with a warning label that explains that it contains materials that IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA are considered to POSSIBLY cause cancer. They do that because of the amount of people that sue in California thinking that random materials caused their cancer. I wouldn't worry about it. The label is only there to prevent getting sued.

I have no idea what the ingredient is, but apparently it only causes cancer in California, or so the "warning label" says.

I'm not sure, but I'm definitely curious now! When I bought mine I don't recall there being any warnings so you've sparked my interest. According to various sites you have to contact the manufacturer directly to obtain the information, but I really liked the information found on the national cancer institutes website. Here's the link, http://m.cancer.org/cancer/cancercauses/othercarcinogens/athome/cancer-warning-labels-based-on-californias-proposition-65 Hope that helps a little!

Prop. 65 is a CA State initiative. It does not necessarily mean it is harmful or carcinogenic. Call the manufacturer for more info. Here is an useful link on this Prop.: http://oehha.ca.gov/prop65/p65faq.html
