Does it have any plastic parts? Is the part where you sip metal? I'm trying to avoid hot water coming through something plastic for health reasons.

No, more like rubber and I highly recommend it. It preserves heat but I don't think it does that for long hours. If you are gonna use it on your way to office or so then it is not a bad choice at all.

The top that screws on is a very thick plastic with a small, maybe 1/2 inch slit.

Steel lid is asking to get burned. there are very few mugs that you will find with an all steel lid. Steel transfers and holds heat to the extreme that if your coffee or drink is 190+ degree's so would the lid.

the pitcher is metal except for the window where you can see the water level, the cover and the well that holds the filter and the water to run through the water filter and the handle. there is no plastic that lines the inside of the pitcher. hope this answers your question.

it's definitely all steel construction! there are just a few plastic parts: the power swiches, and the door handle, and the cooling fan. we distill our water into the glass jar so there is never any contact of water with plastic.

Jennifer R is WRONG and has obviously never used/cleaned this thermos before. It is NOT plastic inside. Only the drinking part (that can be removed) is plastic and does not touch the liquid when filled to the correct level. The inside is not a shiny stainless steel. It's a smooth, non-shiny metal.The body itself is metal. The top, screw-on cap and the part that touches your mouth (neither is in contact with the liquid if the thermos is not overfilled and the thermos remains upright) are the only plastic parts.

Unfortunately, no, the actual drinking part is made of a hard plastic :( I was also disappointed in that. The piece that fits inside the drinking spout that regulates the flow of liquid does appear to be made of a silicone type material, but could also be made of plastic, I am not sure on that piece.

It doesn't have plastic parts. It is a great and amusing teapot. The only problem I've had with it is that the enamel on the bottom can begin to crack if the heat is too high.

Plastic but I still wouldn't purchase it, water seeps into the black rubber part where it meets with the mug and will drip out onto your lap when you go to drink it

There isn't any plastic in the kettle, other than a small mesh filter for the spout to block particulates from being poured out. The rest of the kettle interior is stainless steel, VERY durable and sturdy. It's a Cuisinart after all!

No plastic. Solid metal. Even the knob on top is stainless. I am very careful about plastic and this product has no plastic touching anything you will be consuming. I agree with Flamimgo; it is a great kettle.

Water no, steam when you pour it - we love ours and wanted one that dealt with the same issue - no contact with plastic and this one doesn't, but I don't count the steam since it doesn't get into the cups.

The one I have is all glass, the only plastic part is the gasket that is between the top and the bottom unit and it does not come into contact with either the water or the coffee. So no, the water or coffee does not come into contact with plastic.

Any hot water that gets through the metal screen can potentially come into contact with the plastic body before passing on into your cup. I understand wanting to minimize contact with plastic; I bought this filter hoping to minimize the use of paper filters. I actually returned this unit b/c coffee grounds were not filtered well; they were in my cup of coffee, which defeats the purpose of using a filter.

It is metal inside too....not plastic. Mine is discolored a bit because of hard well water.

This kettle does not have plastic material. Only the handle is a rubber type of material foe heat resistance. And no the water doesn't touch that part. I love mine!

yes - the entire inside is plastic. I don't use the kettle tbh as the boiled water tastes of plastic, like a bottle of water you've left in the car on a hot day. Its in the cupboard and hasn't been used pretty much since I bought it. Try a metal kettle or something else. This is a bad buy.

There is no plastic inside the lid. Also there is no plastic inside the whistle either. The only steam contact you would get is through the whistle. I like this kettle because the lid closes so tight you will not see any steam from the lid. Boils quicker as well.

It does not appear to be plastic to me. It feels like metal. The inside, where the holes for the water to spray from, is most likely plastic. It looks great and works well.
