OXO
OXO is a mainstream housewares brand, not a plastic-free one - polypropylene, ABS, and the signature Santoprene grips are everywhere in its catalog. Products are reliably labeled BPA-free, but that's a chemical-specific claim, not a no-plastic one: plenty of OXO items (its plastic cutting boards, POP storage bodies and lids) are polypropylene or other plastics in direct food contact. Treat "BPA-free" as OXO's baseline, not as evidence a product is plastic-free.
How clear are their specs?
OXO consistently names the primary plastic (e.g. polypropylene) and states BPA-free, but rarely characterizes coatings, additives, or secondary plastics beyond the marketing-friendly headline.

Products to avoid
Documented so you know what to skip — each still has a full breakdown and sources.
Good Grips Dish Brush
The mainstream all-plastic dish brush - polypropylene handle, soft rubber grip, and nylon bristles. Well designed, but the bristles are plastic and shed microplastic as they wear.
Good Grips Utility Cutting Board
A well-made board whose entire cutting surface is polypropylene - which means every cut shaves microplastic particles straight into your food. "BPA-free" is true and beside the point; shedding isn't a BPA problem.
