I am not sure of if this has lead but anyway this product lasted only 2 cooks. I am not using this no more.

Louise, I didn't know the answer to your questions so I called the company. The woman I talked to sounded a bit horrified when I asked if their products contained mercury. Her response was "Absolutely not!" She went on to add it does not contain gluten, dairy products, soy, or animal products either. Everything is made here in the US. I'm glad you asked, because I learned something as well.

There is no lead in this product. Any prop 65 warnings you see are because the state in which the product is made has laws concerning notices about lead. You might notice it on buildings in states like CA, as well. The product is lead-free. The state is over-zealous on labeling.

No. It doesn't contain any metals. You are advised to keep it away frm metal of any kind.

Oh golly, I'm sorry, I have no idea about the lead. I would assume it's lead free, but that's just my guess. I really enjoy mine.

I assumed they were lead free because it would have been noted on the package. Check with manufacturer.

Their website claim there are no metals/toxins in their products. However, there are never any guarantees. I've used this product for over a year and have had no bad side effects.

No, this doesn't contain cadmium. It does contain zinc, magnesium, copper, iron, selenium and calcium.

No. The packaging indicates that they contain both mercury and lead, and that they should not be disposed of with regular trash.

I don't know the answer to that. I suggest you research/google 'Melissa and Doug' products...my guess would be that it is lead-free (I believe the whole premise to their brand is about safe products)...but definitely worth researching.

No, I have used it and it just glass. No lead. I would not buy if it did. A friend of mine bought in a store years ago.....he had no issues with lead. I just happen to find it on Amazon.

I sent email to redvanilla.com about this. The answer from them is: "Yes, it is lead and cadmium free."

I don't believe it contains any lead, as that is now banned.I use it in my old British Bikes and did use it in my old MGB, which had a racing head without hardened valve seats.I found no issues with it.

This product has been tested by an independent watchdog firm (labdoor dot com) and it has only trace amounts of mercury (1 PPB). All the products tested contained at least trace amounts of mercury.
