what's this, were is the link and do I need it •Bisphenol A Free (BPA) and Water Dispenser not Included

This is badly written; I think it's telling you two things that probably shouldn't be in the same sentence. One is that the bottle and filter you'd be buying here are made from plastics that don't contain Bisphenol A. The other is that all you're buying is the bottle and filter; you're not getting a whole water cooler for 40-some dollars. You have to buy the water cooler yourself, then put this bottle on it. There's no link to a water cooler because this bottle will go on many different types of water coolers.

We have purchased several of these for our stores and they work well. You need to purchase two pieces. The cooler itself (1) and the top resevoir (2) that holds the water; the piece shown here is the resevoir. Yes, you need this. This cooler is not the type that you buy the purchased water in a bottle to place on top. These two pieces fit together to make your cooler and you fill with any type of water you wish. Tap water is filtered by the mechanism in the center of the resevoir providing less expensive filtered water.

It replaces the 5-gallon jugs of water that are usually delivered to your home. Its very easy to fill with your tap water. The filter removes impurities in the water. I'm not sure if it's BPA free. No the water dispenser is not included, it's only the bottle you put on top of the dispenser.

how many gallons is the capacity? do you have to buy the filter separately from the reservoir???

I am wondering the same thing. Does anyone know if this is BPA free or can give the recycling number listed in the triangle?

Hi, I was hoping the newer ones would indicate this on the box - but they don't. I called the company and asked for a print out indicating that they were free from BPA - they said they didn't have anything to send me - I am not certain they understood my question - as their English wasn't American English. This was two years ago - so I guess we should make another call - and maybe get some updated response! But I figure - hopefully not to recklessly that using my Boat once a week will be safe for everyone - but yes - I would love to have a guarantee that it was BPA free.

Thank you for your question! All of our Fountains and Feeders are BPA free.

I checked the link. I didn't see anywhere where it said the product is BPA-free. In fact, the Q&A;'s suggest otherwise because Bella failed to answer the question directly. It's a simple question: Is it BPA-free or not? If the company is unwilling to give a straight answer, what does that tell you?

I contacted the company and this is their response: "Our bottles and packaging are free from BPA and BPS, phthalates and other hormone disrupters. We have no such ingredients in our products either." Sorry it took so long.

BPH?...Did you mean "BPA"? Yes, my package says this item is BPA free. Hope that helps! :)

This is difficult to answer for sure, but I don't think the resins used in this would contain BPA. First is the mesh part of the strainer, which is supposed to be Nylon (probably Nylon 6). Then the surrounding structure and handle appear to be either polypropylene or polyethylene (no #7 recycling symbol or other symbol is molded into mine). To my knowledge, none of these three resins are associated with BPA, which is more commonly found in polycarbonate (and maybe polystyrene) resins.

I am searching for a tea kettle and will bypass this since it appears that the water comes in contact with the plastic surface; after doing some research I've learned that BPA Free products have been tested and are not BPA Free in many of the tests. Glass all the way for me.

I looked at the instruction manual and I don't see anywhere BPA free I did go to their website too and did not see Bpa free anywhere. www.westbend.com

Leyla, where did you get your info that the filter screen plastic has BPA? It says BPA-free kettle on Cuisinart website (Product ID: CPK-17), which means any part that comes in contact with water should be BPA free... right? So the manufacturer says it's BPA-free and Leyla says something else???? Somebody help me out here?!!!!

Good question! BPA free, perhaps you can educate me on what "BPA free" is........? Have use this only once.

The packaging label states that none of the parts that are in contact with the water flow have BPA. For the other structural components it would hopefully not matter...

I think it's made of PP without any adders. Only looking after BPA will not really help. Some BPA-free Plastics now contain BPS, which is maybe much more dangerous. The best is, to reduce plastic as much as possible.

IT IS *NOT* BPA FREE. The label clearly states "Sans BPA Free". Look up the word 'sans' in the dictionary. It means 'without'. This container is 'without BPA free' which means it has BPA. That explains why people are getting funny tastes and why the guy in the comments said it had an oily film on the surface of the water. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!!
