Is there any plastic that comes in contact with water?

No. The only plastic inside is the little filter in the spout, you can remove it. Even at full water limit it doesn't touch it anyway.

No, none of the plastic comes in contact with water... Unless you use a damp cloth to clean the outside.

No, there is no plastic inside the lid or the pot. I did a lot of looking before I bought mine, and I think this kettle is definitely the solution if you don't want any plastic coming in contact with your water!

of course it is. the only plastic you see is the lid on top which does not touch the water. Enjoy as we have. Namaste'

Probably some sort of polymer, might be clay though... definitely not plastic.

Not as far as I know. There are no metal fittings, all plastic and the hose expands when water enters and collapses when water is let out.I do not know of any lead or metal that does that.

no there not made out of plastic. there are made like your standard playing cards. But if you want plastic playing cards you make have to look up some that say waterproof. all water proof cards are made of plastic, just not many designs to choose from in that style.

Hi BPA is only ever found in plastic. The water is held in a glass container. That is probably why they don't mention BPA. Hope that helps :)

apart from the iinterior shell casing there is no contact with plastic. The fill line does not go to the top so there is some space between the interior top and the water when full

Yes, it does have plastic in contact with the water (not much, but some), plus the lid and spout filter parts. It's still enough plastic that I can taste and smell the chemicals which leech into the water. Disappointing, because I bought this kettle thinking it might be better than some of the others. As far as I can tell, there isn't a single plastic-free electric kettle on the market (in the US) right now.

Plastic - Yes. Have 4 of these for a year now. On the South side of my house. All still work good.These have been MUCH better than any others I have had.

no, there was no plastic but the plunger came apart after the second times of use. I'm going to return it.

Yes, there is plastic in several places that comes in contact with the water.

The water does not touch any metal. The pitcher part is completely glass except for the lid (which you can just open and pour if you don't want the water to touch the plastic either).

Yes, there is plastic that would be in contact with the liquid. The cap screws on and is plastic, both on the outside and inside.

Yes. The only non plastic part is the metal screen and the inner glass layer. The cap (two parts) are made of plastic and there are rubber rings too. I have deemed the product acceptable for my personal anti-BPA standards. After nearly a year of constant use, the plastic cap still weighs the "same" so if it is degrading into my drinks, then it is happening at less than one part per billion over a year.

No plastic, but I started getting headaches. I stopped using this boilr and started boiling water in a pan on the stove top and my headaches went away.
