DataChem Lab Report on Lead Content in a Hamilton Beach Crock Pot

[Guest guest]

Our local WAPF chapter sent a 3.5 quart Hamilton Beach Crock Pot

(white ceramic

liner) to DataChem Lab in Salt Lake City, Utah (the lab that was

mentioned in the KUTV report on lead).

According to the KUTV report, Rival crock pots contain lead.DataChem

lab found no lead in the liner after the crock pot had been heated

for 25 hours.

White liners have been rumored to be lead-free and we wanted to see

if the Hamilton Beach white liner contained any lead.

The test cost $40 and the postage cost $15 (we also had to reimburse

the lab for the return postage).

DataChem lab has provided us with an e-mail in case we have any

questions. I would be happy to forward any questions. I am also

willing to send anyone a PDF file of the report if you contact me

offlist.
