Are there any plastic or silicone parts inside of the kettle? Thank you.

Yes the water view little window is inside the kettle and also the little filter that keeps hard water from going in your cup as some kind of plastic on it. Hope this helps you.

Not exactly sure, but I believe the clear window to see the amount of water in the kettle is a high quality plastic insert. I have had no problems with my kettle. I think it's a great product and I would buy one again if so needed.

This kettle does not have plastic material. Only the handle is a rubber type of material foe heat resistance. And no the water doesn't touch that part. I love mine!

There is no plastic in this teakettle. The water is held in a glass teapot with metal on the bottom. Maybe the base unit is plastic, but the water does not come in contact with that.

The inside of the kettle is stainless steel. It isn't coated with plastic like some makes are.

No plastic parts are visible, I seriously doubt any are contained, I have 3 of these - they are beautifully and we'll designed, durable and heavy. They keep my wife's tea hot down to warm over 24 hours. But remember to fill it with the hottest tap water you have and let it absorb the hear for 20 secs to a minute if you want to keep it hot for a long period of time! It absolutely does, and you won't regret the purchase! Good luck!

The kettle is stainless steel inside. The only plastic inside the kettle that may touch water when full is the frame that holds a filter at the spout.

The kettle is metal. The inside is dark and appears coated. The handle is a hard plastic.

No there is not from what I can see and feel, it appears that the glass has a lip in the bottom that is mated to the lip of the metal base. I can tell you we use it every day and love it. We have an 1100 watt microwave and this kettle can heat the same amount of water in the same or faster time than the microwave can. Regards

YES. I just bought this (and returned it) Jan 2015. And in the version I got there IS plastic inside. Where the handle meets the container the plastic pokes through inside! The plastic is above the Max fill line, however plastic IS exposed to water. If you're looking for a plastic free kettle look elsewhere! THERE IS PLASTIC INSIDE (all be it a very small amount).

This is completely stainless steel inside the kettle. Only the lid, handle, and base are plastic. All the parts that touch water are stainless.

Thank you for asking - I bought this kettle for my daughter and son in law who have just got back to me - they are thrilled with this kettle but say that "It does have plastic in it. The inside portion of the handle, the max fill line, and a screen around the spout are all plastic." Hope that this helps.

The interior is stainless steel but it has a few small plastic parts. The lid and the filter around the pour spout are both made with plastic parts and hot water does come into contact with them. I don't know if they are BPA free. But the kettle works really well...the water is truly boiling when it clicks off.

No; it's glass. I have a water kettle with a stainless interior, and it has rusted to high heaven. I much prefer the glass interior, although Zojirushi warns you not to drop it or it will likely shatter.

After reading some of the 3 star reviews - Yes it does contain some plastic: max water marker and some on the lid. So, if you're like me looking for an all non-plastic interior kettle, this one is not it either.

I don't know. I bought this press for a gift and can't remember if there were plastic parts in the inside.

The inside of the kettle itself is all metal except for the two viewing windows which are plastic. They light up bright blue when the unit is turned on. The underside of the lid is plastic. It boils water extremely fast and is very user friendly.

no plastic present. Unless you consider the handle or lid knob to be plastic. Nothing touches the water but the metal tea kettle. Great kettle!
