Not sure what the handle is made of either. The scoop itself works fantastic even on hard ice cream.

I really don't know what it's made of! It is comfortable in my hand and of course it does not touch the food, but I can understand if you do not want to buy any product with BPA. I suggest emailing OXO. They should be able to answer your question.

the handle is ABS plastic. very durable but a little narrow for my big hand.

BPA safe plastic the handle is not silicone. There is no reason to be concerned about burns the handle does not heat up when the hot water is poured in.

I no longer have the packaging, but if I remember correctly it is marked as such. I would say so without the packaging though; it is stainless steel with an aluminum bottom and the handles are Bakelite plastic.

The handle appears to be phenolic. I have been using the knife to do light chopping (mostly vegetables) for about a year and have experienced no issues with the handle becoming slippery.

It is completely stainless steel on the inside aside from two small pieces of plastic. One that seals the thermometer at the bottom and another that connects to the water level gauge on the handle. According to Cuisanart these are BPA free.

It is Stainless steel the only plastic on it is the little window and the handle. It is a hard plastic of a type that I would not think had BPA.

The handle is a very hard durable plastic. One that doesn't tear up your hands.

It is plastic but I am not sure about BPA free. I think I bought it before there was a concern about the BPA. I don't use it much but it is a very nice one and the motor will never burn up in home use like the cheaper ones.

The small stirring attachments are plastic but not sure if they're BPA free. The majority of the item is stainless steel.

The handle is plastic and very grippy. We store it in a knife block with Wusthof knives and it looks ok.

The handle is plastic (delrin, etc) with a rubberized coating that is great for gripping. My knife is about two years old and the coating has worn off in places from sheath contact. Would replace the handles if I could find new ones.

I am not sure what the official answer is, but it's stainless steel. I know some camping places make something similar to this, but they have clip on handles.

It is steel. I use it every day. There is a rubber seal in the lid to help secure it to the base. And the handle is hard plastic.

It's plastic, not really sure whether it's bpa free. We hardly used it. We bought a thermos that stainless inside work better. Hope this help.

The handle is rubberized and offers great grip. Not sure if there is plastic under it though.
