Is the steaming tray BPA free?

I checked the manual book and could not find what the steam tray was made of. You may want to go to AromaCo.com and see if it is listed on their web site.

Ifbyou are talking about the container that holds the rice when it is cooking, then no. That is a some type of metal.

I've used them to boil a few items, for convenience. They worked fine, although I'm not sure whether or not they're BPA free, it that's your concern.

There is no mention of BPA on the steamer and no information came with it,not even instructions.Retired mine to the garbage.Never used it.

I do not know if it is BPA free. It says on the bottom of the pitcher "for best results hand wash"

There is no number on this tray and it looks like reg. commercial plastic. I grow sprouts and wheatgrass and I don't think at this time you can find trays bpa free. I would call people at OHI in San Diego or Hippocrates ins in Palm Beach. They would be the first one to know. good luck.

I just checked the Rubbermaid website in the FAQs under these trays in the product section and THESE TRAYS ARE BPA and phthalate free. And considering that, PVC seems very unlikely. I'd email Rubbermaid if you need more info. Happy to help.

I don't remember. I stopped using this thing a long time ago. It does not steam the food evenly and it takes twice as long to cook things. I bought it because it had the safe plastic, but I went back to a Black & Decker.

According to the manufacturer, NordicWare, the Tender Cooker vessel is plastic and they further state that it BPA & Melamine free. Don't hesitate to contact them for further info at http://www.nordicware.com/.

The tray is BPA free. They use European standards which are some of the strictest testing that needs to be done.

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 would avoid using boiling hot water with any plastic product BPA free or not.

It does have a BPA free logo on their website, here: http://www.nesco.com/products/Dehydrators/Clean-a-Screens/Small-Round-Mesh-Clean-A-Screens-Set-of-2/session_51ef6500aba2/

The plastic marking on the tray says it is #5 PP, which is polypropylene. My understanding is that polypropylene is BPA free.

It is a seamless glass pot. BPA should be irrelevant. Heating element seems to be outside the glass bottom, not in direct contact with the water like some brands (Tfal, etc..)

This is a great question and prompted me to research this, as I use the micro cookers daily. I called Pampered Chef headquarters and was told that THEY ARE BPA FREE. That makes me happy.

To be honest I don't recall. But I am a stickler for only buying BPA free products. I would NOT have purchased it otherwise. I would think they would state it on the web page. We love this icecube maker for our sailboat. It is very good quality.
