Not sure? The Ingredients: Soybean oil, coconut oil, palm kernel oil, vegetable-derived emulsifier, purified water, essential oil and fragrance blend.

That information should be on the label. I didn't know that was a requirement in this product. Thanks.

It looks like a Prop 65 label... thanks to California. Just about every tool made has this somewhere on it... not sure why it's listed as a "feature" though (maybe just a warning to avoid any issues?).

You may wish to do further research by going to their website: www.yerbaprima.com You may also direct questions of this nature to their email: yerba@yerbaprima.com This is all the info I have at this time. Since I live on the East Coast, I am not aware of the Cali Prop 65 that you mention.

Customer support said that it has California proposition 65 warning. So it is not free of carcinogens.

Prop. 65 is a CA State initiative. It does not necessarily mean it is harmful or carcinogenic. Call the manufacturer for more info. Here is an useful link on this Prop.: http://oehha.ca.gov/prop65/p65faq.html

According to Powermate's website it is not compliant with California or L.A. standards

This is likely a typo and should read 'CA Compliant' which denotes that it does not meet California standards for efficiency according to the state's Title 24 Compliant Lighting Requirements.

Its sold in California. In California you must put a prop65 warning if your products contain 1 of over 2000 materials. The penalty for not putting the sign or label is huge. The penalty for needlessly labeling is nothing. Starbucks, whole foods and every darn store in California has prop 65 warnings all over. Google prop 65 for more info. The toothpaste is made from Redmond clay, a naturally occuring product, so while it may contain thousands of micro amounts of minerals, organic lead may fall in there. This lead threshold will be less than the water you use to wash your mouth out from your sink. All tap water has inorganic lead present from deterioration of supply lines.

Ugh! I didn't even notice that. This is what I found: "Proposition 65 requires businesses to notify Californians about significant amounts of chemicals in the products they purchase, in their homes or workplaces, or that are released into the environment. By providing this information, Proposition 65 enables Californians to make informed decisions about protecting themselves from exposure to these chemicals. Proposition 65 also prohibits California businesses from knowingly discharging significant amounts of listed chemicals into sources of drinking water." http://oehha.ca.gov/prop65/background/p65plain.html I don't have to worry about it as the hose snapped off the base about a month ago. I'd take a pass on this one, if I were you. It's all plastic.

Keith Kreider, I will have to contact the manufacturer to know for sure, however, I suspect it is because there is a California Proposition 65 Warning on the system. Customer Service TheBetterBuy

I am not familiar with Proposition 65 - Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 in California. I would treat this as a warning -- move on with using the product (which I love) because it is obviously very minimal impact due to the size of the stools. Check the rules on the proposition and decide for yourself is you should return them. I do not recall such a sticker on mine when I received them but maybe it applies to the state they are being shipped to.

There's no mention in the manuals or on the plates either. There are no California-type warnings anywhere on it or in the manual.

Seem to be made of steel. Nice and hefty. But, I have no idea what CA prop 65 refers to.

Because California likes to slap warnings on just about everything. This teether is made from food grade silicone which is not a carcinogen. I have no idea how it would have come by the warning, but I'm not terribly concerned about it. Sometimes it feels like EVERYTHING causes cancer, and silicone is nowhere near the top of the list of my concerns. But hey, way to take a feature used to gain information about a product and turn it into a BS sanctimommy judgement. Kudos. Edit: maybe a better question would be WHY does this product have a prop 65 warning attached. That's actually a useful product question, and I'd be interested in the answer. :-p

Dint buy this kettle. I bought it after much research looking for a bps free and not made in china product and was excited to get this however when we received it- upon opening the box there is a message on the box that says the product has been deemed unsafe by California proposition 65.

So FORGET BUYING THIS- god knows what is in the plastic or anything!!! An very disappointed and back to hunting again. Ugh Dint buy this kettle.
