Jarden Consumer Solutions (JCS), the distributor of Crock-Pot slow cookers, is very focused on the materials that are used in the manufacture of its products. JCS continues to proactively test its products for lead and other toxic metals, with the results continuing to come back favorably. Lead is not an additive in the Crock-Pot slow cooker ceramic glaze. JCS is diligent in its efforts to ensure that its products are compliant with applicable regulations regarding the presence of lead.

I'm sure it is lead free. Lead paint is rarely used, and would have to come with a warning. Especially with a product intended for children.

Yes, definitely! You only have to be worried about the glaze you use being non-toxic. Red, for example, sometimes has lead in it. So just make sure whatever glaze you use specifically says it's food safe!

Here's the company website. Doesn't say lead free that I could see but you could call and ask.http://www.wollcookwarestore.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=53

I highly doubt it has lead in it. I know it is pfoa free and cadmium free. We use these pans a lot and love them.

I called the Cuisinart customer service line and asked this question. They said that even though this product is made in China, it is made to FDA standards and does not contain any lead in the glaze.

Yes~ according to their website all glassware by Anchor Hocking is lead free and BPA-free.

Melissa, I don't really know. I can't say 100% for sure it doesn't, but I believe it is lead-free.

That is correct. The bottom outside area is unglazed. By the way, the part that is glazed is glazed with 100% lead free glazes.

Stoneware is notorious for having glazes that have lead. That being said, there are many glazes that do NOT have lead in them. I bought one of these pots at Walmart and it occurred to me that it was glazed differently from the one shown here. Then I got to thinking about lead in the glaze. I ended up here trying to find out if the pot was lead free. So far no answers to that question.

I think the only glassware that contains lead would be some crystal. THese are very nice glasses, none have broken or chipped.

It is labeled as stoneware, so lead content I don't know. It is microwave and dishwasher safe so I should hope it is non-toxic. I love this dish, it brightens up the table. I would buy another one if this one broke.

I believe that it was soda lime glass and if memory serves there were stickers on them they said they were lead free. I have no way to judge the truth of that though.

I looked up Joyce Chen Stoneware and it states that all of her pots are have a lead free glaze!

I specifically looked for lead free. This was sent to my son, directly, so whether it was stated on the box, I don't know. And, he's thrown it away by now. He loved it, though!!

The previous answer describing tests and glazes is correct - for Corelle's *STONEWARE*, though. These plates (and almost all of Corelle, excluding the mugs) are not stoneware. They're made of a special type of glass, which should not contain or leach any lead at all. This is why I chose these, because I believe them to be safe.

I'm no expert, but I believe that most clear glass products, which these are, are lead free. The only exception I know of is products known as "lead crystal," and that is labeled as such and is usually very expensive. Lead crystal is decorative crystal and not usually found in products such as mugs. If they did have lead, they would have to be labeled as such to be sold in California. That is my best guess.
