Hi Lolabelle, Our facility and product undergoes annual checking in order to maintain Organic Standards. This include checking for any metal components that might have been transmitted through water absorption from the soil, or air. All plants have the tendency to acquire lead because it can be absorbed from soil or air. By doing lab tests regularly, we are able to monitor and keep it at a minimum level, so low to cause a concern. And yes we do have a lab test result for that, which we cannot attach here for there is no option to do so. You may send us an email directly and we'll have it sent to you. Stay positive! Ashley @kissmeorganics Our farm is located in the mountainous coastal province of Fujian.

I have been using this product for over a year and have never thought about lead content. I use our community CO-OP frequently. I spoke with one of the employees who is vegan and very nutrition and health conscious. He is familiar with the Fungi Perfecti products and their high quality production standards and doubts there is any lead in the product. I also called Fungi Perfecti (1-877-504-6926). The rep said their mushrooms are grown in a filtered hot house with stringent controls to preclude pollution or contaminants. Hope this helps; it certainly made me feel better.

Yes it's lead free. You can not find any trace of lead in this pot, because you're not cooking in the outter layer of the pot. There's an inside pot that drop inside of it and it's lead free.

get on naturalnews.com and do some research! hemp, pea, and chia don't have the high heavy metal content and its because all of the rice protein from china is being watered with water that is 80 percent more toxic than even their government allows. so when Mike from naturalnews.com discovered this in his lab he blew the whole industry up

It's made in America, I'm not sure about the lead content, if any, also not sure why they ship two, maybe one for the front yard and one for the back. It is well made and doesn't leak at all where it's attached to the hose, like the plastic ones.

China... it says it on their website.. which is a reason for avoiding it, read this article http://www.green-tea-guide.com/green-tea-lead.html

Normally, any metal China exports contains lead and other trace elements. Shouldn't be a problem as long as it doesn't go in your mouth, like anything related to plumbing.

I do not know about the lead content. I do know that they say that it's made from clay from one of a few provinces in Japan that has this material available. You could contact them to determine the answer to your question.

Sorry I took so long in answering your question. The answer to your question is yes it is lead free to the best of my knowledge. It works great. Leon Carey, leoncarey@gmail.com

lead free? probably. Getting a supply of glaze with lead would probably be difficult. If it were some weird, uncommon color, I might be more skeptical. Made in America? doubtful. Anyway, I didn't know this until recently but some of the kiln factories in china are hundreds of years old and quite famous. If your cup has no mention of a kiln, it's not from one of the highly regarded kiln factories. price is indicative.

It doesn't say if its lead free it is made in china but you also need to order the pot to cook it in on your stovetop.

Remember to check for lead content - China is full of it - not so in England. I would never purchase Spode made in China and actually use it for eating. Too scarey

Says made in China...not sure about lead free, but we use them only occasionally (not constantly) so I was not overly concerned for that reason. I don't remember an overwhelming smell, so either it was not strong, or it was not offensive, or both, because I have been aware of strong smells like that with other new items. It has been great for my 4 1/2 yr old sons to somersault on, since we have brick floors in the room where their toys are! My husband also likes to sit or sprawl out on it when he plays games with them! I've done some stretching exercises on them, as well. Glad I bought it!

Yes, the sticker says Made in China, but the maker appears to be typical glazed pottery from a kiln. I doubt it has lead or anything else toxic. Could be wrong, but I use it every day.

To the best ofmy knowledge it is lead free. None of the instructions that come with it say anything about lead and there do not seem to be any lead parts, Hope this helps.

From their website: "DO VITACLAY POTS CONTAIN ANY LEAD? Our pots have been tested by an independent laboratory for lead contamination. This lab, like most others, can detect lead up to 0.01% or 100 parts per million (the same standard applied to children's toys). When testing our clay pot, the lab concluded that our pot is at least 99.99% lead-free. In other words, our pots may actually be 100% lead-free but the lab can't measure them to this level of accuracy. We've long believed our pots are in fact 100% lead-free, but we cannot make this claim for legal reasons." I don't know where it was made and I seem to have misplaced the booklet that came with it, so I can't look to see.
