Does this mean that most Metal cabinet door pulls have lead? My baby granddaughter loves to open and close my kitchen cabinets and reaches for the pulls. Now I’m worried. My knobs are from top knobs.they are 5 years old.
Interesting that you mention Prop 65 warning in this article. I always wonder how seriously those should be taken. Looking to buy a new TV and most of them have Prop 65 warnings!
Is the lead only in the crystal, or could be in the metal part of the knob too?
