Instapot - Bird Safe?

[LauraC]

I just got an Instapot as a gift. It will be delivered tomorrow. I was trying to look online to see what the Instapot was made of to make sure it is bird safe.

Does anyone have this appliance? What are the material components?

I thought this would be an easy locate! Still looking!

My brother-in-law uses something like this when he visits and it makes me very anxious (but it isn't an Instapot...it is something else). I am not sure about the specifics, but you are certainly right to consider that it could contain teflon. If you don't hear from anyone on the forum, I would just call...I know...such a pain.

If you have the model etc, it might be easier for people to compare any they might have to the one you are getting.
You are talking about the water-boiling device, right?

Instant pot is safe. I use mine all the time and have had no issues at all, and I also remember researching last year to see if there were any PFOAs/PFTE used in producing it and feeling confident it was safe (I also worry about those chemicals around my kids and avoid them at all costs!) so I wouldn’t worry and enjoy your new instant pot! It takes a little getting used to but besides one-pot meals it comes in handy for perfectly steamed veggies too!!
