I have the white version of this model. Yes, the sides and bottom are stainless steel, but the lid has plastic on the underside painted to appear stainless steel. When steam rises and heats the underside of the lid, the water will run back to the bottom and bring down any potential plastic chemical. It's not entirely stainless steel interior, I'm upset.

It has to have plastic. There is a water level indicator which the window is made of plastic, where do you think the water in the window goes??

BPA coatings on metal containers is generally limited to aluminum cans. Stainless steel doesn't need to be coated to function perfectly as a food container.

Our pot has no plastic on the inside. the water only comes in contact with stainless steel.

The interior of the pot is entirely stainless steel, so your water will not touch any plastic. So I guess that does make it BPA free by default?

No reference is made on the packaging to indicate BPA free. You'll need to check their website. The packaging is vaccuum packed foil interior with a plastic coated exterior (from appearance).

The inside is plastic. But I just transfer it to stainless steel mug after it's brewed.

No idea. It doesn't have anything that says either recyleable or BPA free. It's hard plastic.

Mine stated that it was BPA free on the packaging when I got it. Also, the interior of the thermos is uncoated stainless steel, which is BPA free, always.

I don't know about BPA free, but the lid is the only plastic part inside. The handle is totally external. It's a very nice kettle and works well. Inside is totally stainless, except for hard plastic lid that covers it.

Well if that's what the material is, then yes, there is no plastic inside other then the piece on the bottom. That was part of my issues, the veggies tasted terrible IMO, but that was also because there was no drainage so all the veggies were sitting in a pool of water.

No plastic inside. However, I had several other issues with this coffee maker, but it all comes down to very bad tasting coffee. I do not think the water was hot enough. Coffee was always bitter.

Yes there are plastic parts in it. As for BPA Free, I'm not a chemist. There are no Plastic type symbols on it.

Hello, yes, it apprears the interior is stainless steel. The only plastic part is the lid. I love this travel mug. Please be aware the contents stay really HOT. I have to let the tea or coffee cool down before drinking from the mug. I really love this item.

Stainless steel interior, no BPA. Vents steam when boiling and should not be placed under low hanging cabinets.

Yes, it is plastic & BPA free. I would like it better if it were glass but it works well.

The interior is plastic but the bottom plate is stainless steel. Overall this device works very well. We have had an older model which has worked fine for over 5 years...

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.

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

Can confirm that the plastics used are BPA free. I just chatted with KitchenAid and they confirmed its BPA free and that there are minimal amounts of plastics in the device

The interior is stainless steel but it has a few small plastic parts. The lid and the filter around the pour spout are both made with plastic parts and hot water does come into contact with them. I don't know if they are BPA free.
