I wrote to the company last month. They're not BPA-free. So far, they don't know when they'll make the switch, but their chemists are looking into it now. HTH

Yes, according to product description published elsewhere - and Rubbermaid site states "bases and lids" are bpa free.

I just looked up the information on Rubbermaid's website. It is BPA free. If you look at the link I've attached, you won't see it in the text, but you'll see the "NO BPA" symbol right underneath the image of the bottle. http://www.rubbermaid.com/Category/Pages/ProductDetail.aspx?CatName=Beverage&Subca;tId=BeverageStorage&Prod;_ID=RP091888

Lids are made from BPA-free polypropylene and have a silicone seal. Ideal situation, of course, would be no plastic. But as long as the food rests safely in the glass portion, it's about as good as it gets. Wean Greens and Glasslocks are simply awesome!

Hi,There are some inaccurate responses to this question. The lids are in fact BPA free just like the entire VonShef range.Many Thanks,Designer Habitat

The company claims they are BPA free. I do not cook or reheat in mine, just freeze. But good question.

I wish it was, but as it came out long before the BPA news, I doubt it is. I really wish Oster would make a BPA-free updated version of this, because I loved mine! ... for now, it's glass Ball jars. Don't fit well in a cupholder, but less potentially toxic.

I don't know. But given that plastic manufacturers traditionally used BPA in practically everything, and now shout from the rooftops when their product is"BPA-free", I think it is wise to assume that these bottles do contain BPA.

I have no idea if they are BPA free...you might want to Google that. I don't use them in ways in which that would be a big issue.

It does not say BPA free on the can but it does say "grown organically, they are free of harmful pesticides and other unnatural substances, and produced in an environmentally friendly manner" They probably are BPA free. I do know this, for canned beans, they are firm and delicious. I love them.

I believe that they are BPA free. Most all organically grown foods are not placed into cans that have BPA.

They are BPA free, I didn't even have to look at the containers, I just did a google search and in 20 seconds found out from the rubbermaid site that they are BPA free, I believe all Rubbermaid food products are.

I don't think they are lead. Here is what Nakpunar says about their jars...the jars we sell have special BPA free lids and you can use them for foods. They can also be waterbath for the jams. Apr 22, 2014 by Nakpunar

I know they are BPA free plastic, I don't know if it's this specific kind you mentioned.
