Question from Deb Rose Hayes

I was looking into buying a nuwave oven for my cooking classes and home use for the time and energy savings, and found that the dome is made from polycarbonate containing BPA.Would this leach out into the food or into the air during use?

Debra’s Answer

I don’t know the answer to this. I know it will leach into food. My best guess is that it might because heat causes things to be released from plastic. But I don’t know of any studies on this.
