What's the bucket made of? Is there BPA in the product?

Not familiar with BPA...have had this product for over a year and the chickens love it! Change the water every other day & include acv in the water. With the temps going below freezing at night I've been bringing the container in when my hens go in the coop....would rate this a 10 on a scale of 1 to 10ccc

Sorry I have no idea. Just white plastic. This a question best answered by the manufacturer.

The bucket is made of white plastic. I doubt it is BPA free. The manufacturer, BAFX, has an email address on their website so I would send them an inquiry. "info@bafxpro.com"

That is a good question that I unfortunately do not have a definitive answer for; another FYI is that there is no lid- at least I received none. It is one of the more safe plastics(#2) being high density and less likely to leach chemicals. I felt it safe enough for the girls, and they took to it quickly...It will definitely need a heating element if you experience winter.

Sorry, didn't keep it, didn't work out well for my flock, not sure. Hope you get your answer.

The bucket is a heavy white plastic. It has a recycle #2 on the bottom which I think is a number that was in the "safe" category for human drinking bottles. It also says it was manufactured in Massachusetts . My chickens started drinking from it the first day. It is currently frozen with all the Arctic air we have had this winter. I have had to give fresh water in a bowl. I am still very happy with purchase.

I went to their web site and checked. I see the confusion. Looking at the buckets they both have the same labels, but the descriptions are different. One description uses the word 'raw' and one does not. I sent them an email asking them if they are the same or not and pointed out the confusion. When I receive an response, I'll respond to you again.

It is in a plastic jar but it doesn't specifically state BPA free. I assume it is however. It has seemed to be a quality product to me so far.

Hmm...plastic container and rubbery top seem pretty solid; however, I don't know if is BPA free. Might need to find out from manufacturer.

Sorry. I gave this as a gift. The recipient is very particular, so if I'm guessing, I'd say it is bpa free.

#2 HDPE is what MOST 5-gallon buckets are made from but that does not automatically make them "food grade". They should be marked with a glass/fork logo or have text indicating they are "food safe" (or similar wording). http://www.virtualweberbullet.com/plastics.html#foodgrade

inside the lid is a rubber seal. i don't know of any rubber that has bpa so i think it's safe.

There's a #2 symbol on the bottom. BPA free according to their website (http://waterbrick.org/product-specifications.php): "The container is made out of HDPE (High Density Polyethylene resin). The lid is made out of High Density Polypropylene. The gasket is made out of Dynaflex TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer). Just changed my water after a year (oops), and after letting the water breath briefly, there's no plastic taste.

To be honest I don't recall. But I am a stickler for only buying BPA free products. I would NOT have purchased it otherwise. I would think they would state it on the web page. We love this icecube maker for our sailboat. It is very good quality.

It's made of some fabric material. The material seems sturdy, but the fit on a bucket is poor; caddy slips down when loaded with tools.

I don't know if it is bpa free . I would hope that Amazon would be watchful for false advertising , Maybe we should ask them to clarify what in the product .

Great question. Yes, our play balls are BPA free. These play balls are made out of low-density polyethylene.

The product is designed in New York, our manufacturer is in China. The materials are heavy-duty plastic, and BPA free. Thanks for your interest!

Hello!Funny thing, the website stated all products were BPA free but the packaging did not specify that the item was...Hope this helps.

The bucket is really wood but the inside is plastic. The Canister is Aluminum.

I'm not sure, to tell you the truth and I don't have the product with me to answer definitively. I'd take the majority's word for it that it's plastic. I will say that I have two of these and while they don't get extremely heavy use, they haven't broken yet. They do leak while using (could be I need more plumbers' tape on the threads tho').

I don't think so, otherwise I would have not bought it. Now a day I believe no product made from plastic contain bpa. I have been very pleased with my purchase.
