Is this toy BPA free?PVC?

I find it interesting that the website listing for this activity ball makes not mention of it, and people say neither does the packaging, but Walmart is saying that it is BPA free. Here is the manufacturer's website of this item, as I found that it didn't come up when I typed "Clack and Slide Activity Ball" and various other key word searches: http://www.kidsii.com/brightstarts/bright-starts-clack-slide-activity-ball Sadly, SafeMama says they have been getting conflicting reports regarding another item, and in the end, the company, Bright Starts, merely said "consumers can be assured that Kids II products comply with all existing and applicable U.S. and international standards for BPA and phthalates in our products". Hmmm, I guess take what you want from that answer.

I do not have the toy wrapper any longer. I'm sorry I can not answer this for you. Perhaps you can check their web-site.

I don't know.This was a gift for my granddaughter far away. It was an impulse buy. I did not see the packaging. While my daughter is responsible, I am not sure that she would have poured over the package, or even if the package had the information. Given that the source of this is Thailand, I would be suspicious. On the bright side, my granddaughter had yet to grow extra fingers or lose her hair. I actually made an effort to find this information, but was unsuccessful.

This I a BpA free plastic. The glass is very small. Works well for my 2 year old.

This is hard, washable, re-usable white plastic. I don't know whether or not it's BPA-free.

Nowhere on it does this set say that it is BPA free, and as a matter of fact, it is made of PVC--a highly toxic to little ones endocrine (hormone)-disrupting plastic, loaded with phthalates and carcinogens. I returned mine because of the intense chemical odor and learning it is made of PVC.

Yes, this is PVC free not made of any plastic. Also it is flame resistant not fire retardant because there are not added chemicals.

The post from T. Glass doesn't cite a source. But I was able to find the following. URL where I found it below the quote. "Katie said... I contacted Manhattan toys about the winkel. Here is their response. "Katie, Thank you for contacting Manhattan Toy, The Winkel is manufactured with PU tubing. As such, it does not contain PVC (phthalates) or Polycarbonate (BPA). In general I can't say that all of our toys are BPA, and PVC free. I can say that our toys are safe and meet the safety requirements that are put forth by American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and the European Union (EN71). If you have another toy you are inquiring about, please send me an email and I can let you know if it contains BPA, or PVC.

I am trying to find this out as well. I checked on the Target website and could not find where it states it is BPA free, only that it is PVC free.

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.

No. It is plastic, but it is well made. We were happy with the toy and our son has enjoyed it.

Yes there are plastic parts in it. As for BPA Free, I'm not a chemist. There are no Plastic type symbols on it.

I emailed the company and was informed that they are made of flexible PVC plastic. I won't be purchasing them for this reason. I don't feel PVC is child safe. I was hoping they were natural rubber.

It is plastic. It does not say if it is BPA free. However they have a website you can go to. It is www.tanglecreations.com. And www.tangletheraphy.com.

Based on an external website & my husband & I's research on this line of toys we found this on http://www.mypreciouskid. com/rhino-toys-oball.html that it was 100% dishwasher safe, PVC, latex and phthalates free. We have washed our sons several times in the dishwasher just be sure to put it on the top shelf our dishwasher is self heating & has melted a few "dishwasher" safe items placed in the silverware bin.

I am looking at this set in another catalog. It says they are made of PVC. I'm not sure where it is made. We got it for a 3 year old, but she doesn't put things in her mouth. Sorry I can't help you more.
