Is the plastic safe to microwave...bp?-free?

The instruction insert and the box both say "FDA approved microwave cooking material". Also, it is made in the USA!

I am assuming it is bp free, as you are supposed to use it in the microwave. It really works great.

The original FastaPasta is bpa free and specifically made to be used in the microwave. The pasta cooker I purchased from Amazon is the original cooker made in the USA and not a Chinese knockoff. I'm confident my cooker is safe from toxins. Checkout fastapastacooker.com for all pertinent information concerning the cooker; it's very useful.

Yes it is BPA free, from their site, "Q. I'm concerned about the dangers of using plastic to cook in the microwave. Why is Fasta Pasta safe? A. Made of BPA free FDA approved microwave safe material. The material used to manufacture Fasta Pasta is really a polypropylene copolymer and surpasses FDA approval for contact with food in the microwave. It also surpasses the more stringent European specification for food contact while cooking. This is a special resin that will not leak gaseous toxins at high temperatures and classified by the FDA as approved for food contact while cooking. This material is more expensive than food storage plastics. Most plastic storage containers ARE NOT for microwave cooking. They are made of FDA approved plastic for FOOD CONTACT and intended to be used for storing food, not cooking." .

I bought that for someone else so I don't remember if it is microwave safe.

I'm not sure about FDA Approved, but they are BPA free. They are designed for Sous Vide and should be fine in boiling water. I wouldn't recommend use in a microwave as the temperature could easily get high enough to melt the plastic, and even with no air in the pouch some foods will produce enough gas or water vapor to inflate the pouch enough to risk exploding.

Yes but I don't know if the plastic is safe for the food it self. The containers micro without any damage but the plastic might penetrate fumes into the food. I put my food in glass containers or use a paper plate to microwave. I carry non microwave foods in the small containers,like fresh fruit. Hope these helps you

Right in the description it says "All Re-Play products are BPA-free, PVC-free, phthalate-free, melamine-free...and dishwasher safe" However with any plastics, its still a chemical. I do not heat even if it says they are safe As far as the product they are really great plates for little ones. I would purchase again. Hope that helps.

Every container says so on the bottom: BPA FREE, top shelf dishwasher safe, microwave safe. However we have never used them in the microwave to personally attest.

I don't think so. Entire appliance is made of BPS-free plastic. But that's not a drawback for me. It's sturdy, attractive, and efficient.

No they are not microwave safe and they are not labeled microwave safe. In general heating plastic releases carcinogens. Microwaving with a glass pyrex measuring cup and pouring in the contents does the job well.

I just did a live chat with Kitchenaid, and they stated (I printed the chat for my records) that all of their kettles have BPA free plastic on the wall of the kettles to protect them from mineral damage. I have read from many reviews that BPA free plastics are just as bad if not worse than BPA plastic when exposed to heat. Finding a safe/healthy option for an electric kettle is proving to be quite frustrating.

It is plastic. "OXO" says it is dishwasher safe, top shelf. Microwave safe except for heating oils.

According to their website, all of their plastic products are BPA free EXCEPT the microwave butter melter and the dripless poultry baster. Why not listed as a product feature, no idea.

I can't answer this. I don't put any plastics in the microwave and I don't have a dishwasher.

I would avoid using boiling hot water with any plastic product BPA free or not.

I try to avoid putting plastics in the microwave. I wouldn't use this to heat anything up. It is great for sandwiches and salads and hard boiled eggs.

I don't know of any, but I don't think I'd microwave anything contained in plastic.
