(1) I don't treat it as a toy and it is not permanently float on water. Before get into the water, I quickly use it to check for water temperature only. So I did not look at the BPA. (2) I don't use it often, so I can not say how batteries last

Just a heads-up for parents. Just because a product passes US standards for any chemical does not mean it is free of that chemical. For instance, many children's wooden toys that are painted have some lead in the paint but it is the amount allowed by law. Still, if your child were to eat that paint, he or she would be ingesting lead. I say this hear because I am not sure that this product is truly BPA free. It sounds like it meets the US standards but if it is truly BPA free, then why don't they list that under their product specs here on Amazon? Worth questioning.

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

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!

item came up under search for BPA FREE but it isn't stated anywhere on the product or product package that it is BPA free. I doubt it is and wish I knew as well.

I just looked at mine. The plastic is not marked "BPA free" so it is my best guess that it is NOT BPA free. Hope this helps. BTY -ours is working fine and had it 4 months without a problem.

I bought it for my granddaughter and I'm pretty sure the product it's BPA free, because my daughter doesn't keep anything that it's not BPA or phthalate free or anything that's harmful for my granddaughter health.Only one bad thing they didn't receive the complete set, were missing several parts.I asked for those parts and still don't have any answer from this company.

Wow! That is the quickest response I've ever had from any company! Nesco states in the e-mail that: "all of our current models and accessories are BPA free". They should really print that info on the product packaging so people can see it.

I never thought to check this out first but, I called Hamilton Beach & asked them. I was told no this model is NOT, BPA free. Sorry

I don't know if it's BPA free. Have never used this one. But you can go to the manufacturers website and check. You can also send questions thru Amazon to the manufacturer.

There was no indication that the product as to the status of BPA. It does say that the product is environmentally friendly and dishwasher safe. You probably need to contact the company at CustomerService@Medelcoinc.com or call 1-888-MEDELCO.

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

I do not know for sure, but I am fairly certain that nothing on it or it's packaging said it was BPA free.

I'm not sure. I've had mine for over a year, and it's still working great! As with any piece of technology, large or small, it depends on how well you take care of it, I'm sure. I clean mine every time I use it. It's wise not to leave the batteries in it when it isn't in use.

I find it interesting that the website listing for this activity ball makes not mention of it, and people say neither does the packaging, but Walmart is saying that it is BPA free. Here is the manufacturer's website of this item, as I found that it didn't come up when I typed "Clack and Slide Activity Ball" and various other key word searches: http://www.kidsii.com/brightstarts/bright-starts-clack-slide-activity-ball

I was wondering the same thins. So, I looked it up on Progressive International's web site. That web site says that it is BPA free.

Yes, the plastic is BPA free. The written material with the product clearly states that. Take a look at the manufacturer's website.
