I purchased these because the listing stated "BPA-free." The bottles arrived today and nowehere does it say BPA-free on it. Can you please confirm?

I cannot confirm, although the BPA free bottles I buy from Walmart or Sprouts only have stickers stating BPH free, nothing stamped on the bottles. These are LDPE recycle #4 which are listed in an article by Mother Earth News Magazine as not known to leach chemicals (Guide to Family Health, Summer, 2014 issue). Hope this helps.

The short answer is yes it is BPA free. Was researching this last night so I had the info already on hand to post. This product is made from HPDE which does not use BPA. On a side note and looking to help you save money, you'll find these 2 sites most helpful. $38.99 each - Free delivery http://www.lexingtoncontainercompany.com/Military-Water-Cans.html $25.99 each - Free delivery with $50 order or more http://www.buylci.com/CatalogProductDisplayG.aspx?D1=water-can&Keyword=water%20can&sc=BM&fi=1&fr=1&ps=0&av=0 For more info on plastics read this: http://www.livestrong.com/article/158674-which-plastic-containers-can-i-safely-use/ and this: http://yalesustainability.wordpress.com/2009/04/29/do-you-know-which-number-plastic-bottles-are-safe-to-reuse/

Sorry, my bottles are not new, so i threw out the tag. Bottom of bottle says, "U.S. pattent pending and BPA free.

Yes, they say they are BPA free. The tips do have a rubbery Silicone like feel and look to them. Honestly, I thought they would be great. But my son has no interest at all in them for now. Maybe he will like them later...

I believe not. My husband bought them and he shops for price, not safety. There was no indication on the packaging that they are bpa free and they had that new plastic smell that I now associate with bpa containing products.

I would check directly with the company. Since IT IS NOT stated on the can, I DOUBT they are BPA free.

Hi Kate,Good question.... There is nothing on the packaging stating BPA free so I would assume that the product is not.Usually companies will make the BPA free statement on their packaging as a selling point and if it's not marked that way, I would have to assume that it is not BPA free.Something I should have thought of when buying the product!However, the trays work remarkably well and are easy to use. Yield a lot of sprouts and are not that messy.Sherri

They are BPA free, yes. And I love this bottle. Perfect size, easy to carry, holds enough water.

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

Honestly, these were a gift and I cannot remember if they are BPA free. I had something similar to this that I purchased years ago and am happily still using. My dog loves it. Hope this helps you.

People, BPA-free is a meaningless term. It only means that the plastic is most likely BPS plastic, which is equally a health concern.

It does not say on the product that they are bpa free and I no longer have the box. I went to the rubbermaid site and this along with many other products ARE bpa free.

To the best of my knowledge it is BPA free. I use 2 of these bottles to store water for my fish tank. I empty 1/3 of my fish water every 4 weeks. My fish are very fragil fish and the water has to be at the right ph for them to survive. Every time I empty the tank I refill the bottles with filtered water and let it stand until the next time I have to replace the water and so far the fish are doing fine.

HDPE is BPA free. If they're using recycle code #2 bottles it should be fine.

That's what I received as well. Not sure if it is BPA free. I'm hesitated to use them.

I don't know for sure. There are no markings on the bottles to indicate that they are. And I don't have the tag any more to check and see if they are.

I can not find a statement that clearly says they are BPA free. Here is a page from the manufacturer. http://westbend.com/support/product-faqs/materials-statements/plastics.html
