Is the pitcher pba free? THanks

I don't know if the pitcher is bpa free. I had wondered that when i purchased it. But in the big scheme of things it really doesn't matter because you don't let the water sit in the pitcher anyway, it will dissolve your mineral cube faster. I transfer all the water i make to glass.

I would hope so! Still I dont remember seeing it stated. I've had mine a long time...7 years at least.

The box says that the bags are made in the USA by Reynolds. There is no marking on the box saying "PBA Free".

I don't know. A good question. If you trust The Food and Drug Administration (FDA), they said that BPA is safe at the very low levels that occur in some foods. This assessment is based on review of hundreds of studies. But since our FDA is understaffed and not keeping up in many instances, you may not want this pitcher. I don't recall a tag or information stating this product is BPA free.

No it is not. At first I was disappointed about this but the first time I dropped it, which was pretty soon after I bought it, I was glad that it is not glass. Also, the pitcher is a little bit heavy so having more glass would make this even worse.

I"m sorry I am not familiar with BPA does that have something to do with the texture of the pitcher and the health of our body

To be honest with you I don't know. The pitcher is pretty thick plastic & sturdy. Maybe try it with a little water. But, that's up to you. Good luck!

I, personally, wash my pitcher by hand. However, I did go on their site and all of the glass iced tea glass pitchers indicated dishwasher safe. For the price and design, it is worth the purchase; and they include a package of tea. The tea is so delicious -- I had a 1oz Maharaja Chai/Samurai Chai Tea Blend. (I drank it hot!). Loved it.

The pitcher is not stamped with a recycling number, but does have the little fork and glass emblem on the bottom of the pitcher. I believe this is used outside the US for plastic that is safe for the storage of food or drink.

No pitcher. Their description doesn't match this product at all-there is just one about 32-oz base and it has 4 cutting blades, not 6. It is a great tool, just not the one they are describing!

NO!! I can't speak to previous orders but I just received mine today, 7/15/2015, and NO this pitcher is absolutely NOT glass as clearly stated in headline/subject line that initially describes product. The pitcher itself is plastic, the insert is plastic, and the plastic lid is.....plastic. The only part of this product that is not plastic is the box it came in and the paper pamphlet. I am very disappointed as I specifically thought I was purchasing a "glass pitcher". So if you are specifically looking for a glass pitcher, keep on looking -- this isn't it.

It's made of plastic, so it is not notably heaver than any other water pitcher you may have used in the past. The inner funnel and charcoal filter only add about 12 ounce's to the weight. Filled with water; "A pint's a pound the world around"... DonS.8/28/13

Yes it is BPA free. If you go to the website for Buddy Bowl you can see the details.

They Soylent pitcher has the Takeya label on the lid so I asssume it's the exact same model. Regardless, I just ordered one of these from Amazon and will try to remember to compare them.Edit: I can now confirm that it is the exact same.

it's plastic....put it can still break. . . as I found out this evening. sigh. I'm sure it'll be cheaper to just buy a whole new unit rather than replace the pitcher. I may decide to get a nutri ninja. I may just get nothing. #sadface

The pitcher says it holds 36 oz, which is 4 cups + 4oz. I don't know if the top is BAPA free; I couldn't find any other seller of these pitchers, including the company Kitchen Supply. I bought my first pitcher about 8 years ago, and if the tops are still the same, I'm guessing that they're not BAPA free. You could store the liquid in the pitcher with another top - aluminum foil? and use the cap just for pouring. However, if you don't fill the pitcher up to the very top, the cap won't touch the liquid during storage. I love my pitchers - I can pour water in from the instant hot to make tea, or fill with ice cubes for a cold drink. They have lasted without damage. Hope this helps.

I would suggest you research if there is a company web site. There is no marking on the pitcher itself.

It's not identical to distilled. When you first replace the filter, the water is ultra-clean but after a few days the filter is less effective. As to whether it is totally bacteria-free, that depends on how carefully you clean and dry your pitcher every time you change the filter. So short answer: It's probably not better for that purpose.
