Is the plastic part of the juicer BPA-free

Un Sure. But I personally tested a few juicers and this is the best. It's a masticating juicer. Best for leafy greens etc.

I looked at the box and it doesn't mention if it is bpa free or not. Maybe the reynolds web site will mention something regarding this.

I don't know if this product is BPA free. It doesn't matter so much to me because I use mine mainly for storing cheese, which I wrap in a bit of wax paper, so the cheese doesn't actually touch the plastic anyway. If I'm storing fresh berries, I put a layer of slightly damp paper towel between the berries and the container.

It is plastic, but softer fruit even like apples and cucumber, can get 'caught' in the grooves and cause the chute to get jammed. When this happens the whole juicing part has to be taken apart and rinsed in order for juicing to occur..a quite tedious process. Generally this juicer is more suited to hard fruit and not softer varieties. I've also had to run the pulp back over to extract as much juice as possible. I would not recommend this juicer at this price point.

The part that presses down and "cups" the 1/2 orange you are juicing is plastic, but everything else ss. I no longer have this juicer because motor quit working after about a year. We have another one at 2nd home that motor ALSO quit working well after only a few months! This product is not durable especially considering cost and fancy materials, and I would not buy another.

This question should be addressed to the manufacturer, I dont have the juicer with me as Im travelling but I will scrutinise it when I get home to see if I can see any indication on the plastic

Yes it is plastic and SproutPeople.org says that it is BPA free on their website.

All of the internal pieces that do the work are metal (with some metal-based mesh). The only plastic piece is "smoothie" attachment, which I've, honestly, never used - as I'm a much bigger fan of just plain and simple fresh-pressed juice. But I love this machine. It's durable. Clean up is quick and easy. And the juice that gets extracted is so tasty! I highly recommend this product.

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.

It's exterior is made up of plastic; however, its interior moving parts, i.e. blade and canister, are made of steel. Good quality juicer for its price. I've used for over 6 yrs only having to replace the blade once.

I do not know about the BPA free part but it is dishwasher safe and my daughter has washed it many times in her dishwasher.

Yes, the Breville is all plastic. From the tube where you insert the vegetables, the round part that cuts everything up, the tube that the juice comes out of and the container that it goes in is all plastic.

It is plastic, I thought bpa free...works well but I also don't leave it in for long periods and use ice water

No....the body (chrome part) is metal and the transmission inside the body also contains metal gears........the parts that do the actual juicing are plastic, but there are two types of plastic.....the food chute is a typical clear, thick plastic.....the black pieces like the auger and nosepiece are made from a new heavy duty plastic that resists wear....I use this juicer everyday and the plastic pieces are holding up fantastic.......in fact I can see no wear whatsoever on the auger and nosepiece.......I could easily see this lasting for many years before worrying about replacing anything.

there is plastic where the part that sits on the orange and press's down is. I don't use it I use my hand. Love this juicer but a piece has already broke off after 1 year of use but it still functions fine.

Mostly stainless steel. However on the inside there are some plastic pieces. Not all stainless steel. I don't think you can get any juicer that is fully stainless steel. My omega is plastic and that cost over $200. This is a pretty good juicer I own this one too. I started with the plastic jack lalaine lasted over 5 yrs. I Graduated to this one. So far i had it for over a yr with a lot of usesage almost everyday. Then later I found the omega for a good deal and couldn't let it go. Both are great. Just somewhat different purposes. The jack lalaine is a quick juicer, omega is a slow juicer. Bottom line it's mostly stainless steel with some plastic pieces on the inside. Mostly stainless steel.

The bottle is made of plastic and I cannot find anywhere where it indicates it's bpa free.
