Yes. It is plastic. But I'm hoping that it is BPA free. Maybe you should check with Brita to be certain. But overall, I like it. Water taste great and no chlorine taste. Just follow the directions when adding/changing filters

It is mainly plastic. I don't remember what the inside is (the water resivor) and I'm not due to change the water bottle yet. So far I've been throgh 5, 5 gallons and it is still working great and tasting good. Both tue cold and hot works really good.

The description and packaging states that these are made with NON TOXIC distilled water, basically for safety.. however, that doesn't mean that the PLASTIC MATERIAL is BPA free. I can not find anything on the actual packaging stating the the cube material is free of unsafe chemicals. But they brag that the water inside is non-toxic.

No, it is plastic. Pretty sturdy, but the mist is more like a squirt, unfortunately,

Hello! The only plastic part inside is the water measuring stick, the metal round inside is containing heating equipment and it has no seams inside kettle so it's perfectly safe to use, no plastic. I've got this kettle for my mom a year ago and it`s the best one from all we had, still working, no plastic taste. Please enjoy!

IT'S GLASS!!!! Not Plastic, and I'm POSITIVE. I have several of them, and they are ALL GLASS. When I purchased 2 of them one time, one had been shattered into a million pieces in the mail. Trust me, it's glass.

the entire mug is plastic, with the exception of the metal band around the outside. I use mine for lemonade, iced tea and water, i have tasted any change in the drink that would be due to what i drank in it precvious.

The one I have is all glass, the only plastic part is the gasket that is between the top and the bottom unit and it does not come into contact with either the water or the coffee. So no, the water or coffee does not come into contact with plastic.

The water does not touch any plastic during heating. You can open the lid to pour with out touching plastic. The only contact would be condensation dripping back in. I don't know if that is a danger if it is not bpa free.

I looked it over and the only plastic is the water gauge which would not necessarily touch the water. I bought this one precisely because there is no plastic touching the water. I like it BTW!

It is plastic. Yes the water touches it, but it is made in such a fashion that there is no need to worry about it getting hot. It is like a duel pane window so you can touch the outside ( which is good since that is where the handle is) and it is barely warm with boiling water inside.

I studied the spigot with my magnifying glass and there is not an indication of what kind of plastic is used. the Spigot is metal. I have had mine for a month and use the Spigot 20 times a day. again the spigot per se is metal not plastic. I have no problems with the spigot and use it at least 20 times a day.

It is plastic, I thought bpa free...works well but I also don't leave it in for long periods and use ice water

Mine just arrived and I was disappointed to find plastic on the inside around the spout. I called the company and the representative said the plastic is BPA free. I wish I could find something online that confirmed this. Not sure if I'm going to keep the product
