The bowls are Corelle ceramic - - about as safe as any glass product made. No lead, & BPA is a plastic and metal food can coating problem.

They are advertised at Target as BPA free http://www.target.com/p/corelle-6-piece-bowl-set-winter-frost-white/-/A-14551452 but I could not find them anywhere else on the net. So I really don't know for sure. Suggest you call Correll at 1-800-999-3436 and ask.

They are dishwasher and microwave safe. They do get very hot in the microwave for 5 minutes, but I wouldn't push it past those minutes. But, yes I love these bowls.

I don't know. When I bought them I just assumed they were, but it's not stated on this site or the Cuisinart site, which only say that they are dishwasher safe. I do not have the original packing, but none of the 3 bowls have anything stamped on them other than the Cuisinart logo. I have only used them for mixing or serving snacks, but would have used them in the microwave without even thinking about it. Now I am curious as well, almost to the point of trying one out - but I'll wait for someone else to reply with a definitive answer first. Sorry I couldn't help.

I have been looking at these same bowls and found the description on amazon lacking. I found info about these on a competitor's site. The bowls are 18/10 stainless and are dishwasher-safe. The plastic lids are BPA-free and are safe on the top shelf of the dishwasher. Hope that helps you out.

The bowl is 100% food-safe,BPA-free silicone. BPA-free silicone is hypoallergenic and bacteria-resistant. It's food-safe, pliable and easy to clean, making it perfect for food storage, transport and serving.

They appear to be constructed of either polypropylene or polyethylene and neither of those use BPA. That chemical tends to only be used in vinyl or poly carbonate. Nordic Ware would probably provide you with an accurate answer if you shoot them an email.

I went to the Trudeau site but couldn't find a definitive answer there. It would probably be best to contact them with that question. They are made out of polypropylene which according to reviews may contain BPA. The site I saw said that "BPA is a major ingredient in polycarbonate plastics, normally labeled with recycling number 7. While polypropylene and polyethylene plastics, marked with product codes 1, 2 and 5, appear safer, vom Saal says they may still contain BPA, because polycarbonate is often combined with other plastics, although it may not be listed on the label." A bunch of other sites refer to the Trudeau bowls as BPA free but I don't know where they got their information. So it would be safer to contact Trudeau. The bottom of the bowls do say microwave but I'm not sure if that means BPA free. Hope this helps.

There is a small sign on the bottom of the bowl with the letters BPA crossed out. I suppose it may mean BPA-free.

Plastic....BPA free... I really enjoy using them, especially with the lunch bag designed for them. Very flexible, lots of options. Other questions? Post, and I'll get back to you.

The bowl is hard plastic and the pinch pour snout is rubber. I am not sure about them being BPA free. Hope this helps.

Hmmm. That's funny. Amy s. We have had these bowls for a year and still goin strong. Wash them in our dishwasher all the time and we microwave them too. Great set

I would imagine they are free of BPA. The bisphenol A (BPA) additive is typically used in epoxies and polycarbonates (generally clear plastics). These balls, I believe, are made of polyethylene, which wouldn't benefit from BPA.

I seem to remember, when doing my research, that the cover is BPA free. However, I would check with the Pyrex people to find that out for certainty in your mind.As a side note, I use the bowl to mix batter and place the cover on to it to sit for a while. The cover touches no food, so I do not have a strong concern about that issue.

They appear to be made from pottery clay and painted. We have used them with no ill effects; but I don't know if they are lead free.

I have no idea if they are BPA free...you might want to Google that. I don't use them in ways in which that would be a big issue.
