I know the jury is still out about BPA, but why take the chance with your drinking water and you & your family's health. We go to so much trouble getting purified water for our homes and then put it in something that can poison you? You can find reasonable priced 3 & 5 gallon BPA FREE water bottles on ebay! That's were we got ours and we love them! The name of the seller is Oasis Pure Water & Ice. Good luck & drink more water :o)
