What type of material is the inside of containers made from? If plastic is it BPA-free? Does it have a non-stick coating?

It's plastic, not really sure whether it's bpa free. We hardly used it. We bought a thermos that stainless inside work better. Hope this help.

It is hard plastic, with no coating. I don't know if it is BPA free or not. I don't ever heat the containers up.

I sent an email to the company and received this reply: "The water container in the Hot Shot is made of stainless steel." I just replied and asked if there's a nonstick coating as bp mentioned. I'll report back. They did not mention it in their initial response though. Update: The company responded and confirmed the water container is made of only stainless steel and there is no non-stick coating.

The material is a plain stainless steel. It is NOT non-stick. We have been very pleased with this product for making soups, stocks, applesauce, etc.

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

It is a plastic. However it is better made than the rectangular containers which do tend to crack. So far I have had not any problems after three month of heavy use.

The container is not glass, but appears to be some type of plaslic. I don't know whether it is BPA free. Hope this helps and you find what you are looking for.

The plastic is made of a high density polyethylene that is BPA free, according to the manufacturer's description. It is dishwasher safe, but I hand wash it and air dry. I've been very pleased with mine.

The actual container is made of metal. The lid and dispensing mechanism and catch tray are plastic and I cannot say if the plastic is BPA free. I can say that this is a great quality unit. Tiger is highly reputable in Japan and i would still recommend this product.

Inside is black non-stick coated. Note: Mfr recommends NOT using dishwasher on non-stick surface. Excellent pan - ordered 2nd as gift.

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

It is steel, without any non-stick coating. We love this griddle. We just spray the griddle with a light coating of vegetable spray before using, food comes off easily.

Material: Aluminum alloy These are great and work like non-stick even though I don't think they are coated. Plenty of room to store things inside while traveling and comes in a nice net bag. Hope this helps!

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.

The interior is stainless steel. BPA is only present in plastics, is I would say the answer is yes.

There's an actual container inside, not sure what it's made of, I believe Teflon or something. It's in the product description somewhere.

Interior is steel.....it is not Teflon coated and I would say that it is not non-stick, but can easily be wiped out if you care for it after use.

The interior coating is enamel which, I believe, means it is PFOA free. It is not non-stick.
