Can you tell me about the plastic quality used in this machine? BPA?

I'm not sure of the BPA rating on this product. Otherwise plastic is very durable.

contact the manufacturer for materials related to the construction for their juicers http://www.omegajuicers.com/

I recently purchased this machine and can tell you that the filter holder is a very sturdy clear plastic. Hope this helps !

I do not know what kind of plastic it is made of. It does have a #7 in the recycling symbol and according to the manufactures website is BPA free and made in Germany. You can read more at http://frieling.com/products/kitchen-essentials/

Not sure what you mean by plastic as this product should be all metal. Ensure that the black rubber washer is seated properly and wrap all threads several times around with Teflon tape.

Mine is plastic.... not even a year old yet and they are about wore out. I will be replacing mine.

I don't know, regarding the plastic handle... but the blade itself is silicone, so the BPA issue is irrelevant for that.

I want to say plastic . I was dumb and bought a used machine guaranteed for 6 months and sure enough 5 and a half months later it quit so I threw it out. It was to say the least a disappointment and another thing it is a tiny piece of machinery

I guess BPA-Free means plastic. Full spec.s here: http://www.kitchenaid.com/shop/countertop-appliances-1/countertop-appliances-2/blenders-3/-[KSB1570ER]-404031/KSB1570ER/

Check to make sure this plastic is Acid and/or BPA free. If not, over time, the acid will leech and destroy paper products

I am sorry, nothing in the packaging tells me if the plastic is BPA free. You could call the manufacturer, Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc. at 1-888-901-2739 or check their website, www.GreenMountainCoffee.com.

Wow! That is the quickest response I've ever had from any company! Nesco states in the e-mail that: "all of our current models and accessories are BPA free". They should really print that info on the product packaging so people can see it.

The machine is not stainless steel. It is ABS plastic with a grey/silver metallic fleck finish. It is not exactly a matte finish, but I would not call it shiny either.

they are plastic. i have no idea if they are BPA free, you would have to check the Breville site or likely email/call them to ask i'm guessing

Plastic on the outside, however there is a metal rod running through the inside. Not sure what it all does. It is a very nice and lightweight machine to use.

Not quite sure what the problem is: Yes, there are three parts to the "filter" which disassemble for cleaning purposes, but should be rethreaded together before using. I'm not aware of any plastic inside the unit.

I have the same question. I googled "Breville BSB510XL made in china", and come to the conclusion that it's made in China and uses BPA free plastic.
