Is this product BPA free?

I'm 64 years old and, after researching BPA, I'm not too worried about it. If it makes you fat, bald & want to takes naps, I have all of the symptoms! This is an excellent appliance that has replaced my Revere Ware Steamer & Sauce Pan combo. I never thought that would happen!

The next model, 7601, is labeled explicitly "BPA free." To me that means either (a) the product was always BPA free but enough people complained so the company felt it had to clarify that statement for the upgrade OR (b) the 7600 is made of plastic that leaches but the 7601 isn't. If you've already bought it like I did and it's too late to take it back, I would either call the manufacturer, junk it, or use it sparingly. I think heating plastic in all forms is a bad idea, but since it was a gift and is useful, I use it - but only now and then.

Well, I honestly do no know(I have lost the information sheet for the unit)... and honestly, I don't know what the "BPA" even stands for. I would hope that the unit is made from food grade materials. I mainly use it for cooking large amounts of hard cooked eggs, for salads and the like. I also steam broccoli and carrots. I use the steamer two to three times a week, there has been no "unusual" odors nor tastes in the foods I've cooked in the unit. I'm sorry I couldn't be of much more help to you, with the loss of the information sheet, I feel a bit inadaquate in assisting you in your question.

According to their website, it is BPA-free... most of their products are, and if they are not, they mention it. It's a great product, I highly recommend!

I would presume it is not if it does not specifiy. Shame on the seller/manufacturer, all should be BPA free by now.

I looked at the box and it doesn't mention if it is bpa free or not. Maybe the reynolds web site will mention something regarding this.

I have no idea. There is nothing written on the product. I looked at product description and there is noting to say if it is BPA free.

Yes it is BPA free. I checked with OXO and they assured me that consumers' safety is a top priority during the development of their products and therefore all their products are BPA and PVC free.

I just chatted with an Amazon customer service rep who checked their internal catalogs to confirm that IT IS BPA FREE! Hope this helps.

I'm not the maker, just a previous customer, but the product description clearly states it's BPA free.

It's made of some kind of plastic. I don't not if it's BPA free or not. If it isn't I am going to throw it away.

Yes it's BPA free. It has a "BPA-free" symbol on the right top corner of the packaging.

I'm going to have to guess no. There aren't any labels saying it is BPA free, and BPA free materials have a different sound when I tap them. This seems to be regular plastic.

I know that this is very late, but I just noticed the question. According to Bodum's website, all of their products are BPA-free (http://www.bodum.com/us/en-us/cms/552/102392/)

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