I want to use the cups for mixing epoxy paste. Are these cups made of hard plastic?

These are plastic but not a strong plastic. They are like the ones you get at a fast food restaurant with gravy or dressing in itHope this helps

Plastic. I bought two sets - one as a Christmas gift and one for myself, so I handle the cups often and I'm happy with them.

They are made of a type of plastic. They are very robust as I am using 6 pieces and have had no problems with them.

I am not sure. They appear to be, but nowhere in the booklet that came with the mixer does it say what they are made of. I am going to get in touch with Cuisinart to try to find out.

Yes; they are made of silicone, not plastic (BPA is typically found in plastics, as coating in cans and on certain papers...like receipts with a glossy side). Not sure what they used for coloring the silicone, but I imagine it's pretty safe.

The cups are thick plastic. The plastic is not thin like a Play-Doh container. They would definitely hold water, but I don't know about being water safe. Sorry. There are no numbers on the bottom of the cups to help determine the type of plastic and I threw the packaging out long ago. Hope this helps.

Not at all. They say that the new cups use the safe type of plastic, I don't know if that's true or not but I can say that the cup is a great replacement for my old one. You should get it. I studied it long and hard and I am very happy with the performance of the cup.

no - these are BPA and melamine free. Their materials is not actually plastic, but a compound that creates a hard plastic like bowl/plate/etc.

The package has no list of what it is made out of. They are some type of reasonably heavy duty plastic that is semi-flexible. They look exactly like the straws you get with hospital cups/mugs/glasses, etc. except mine are colored. I like mine very much. They work in the hospital cups I have for which I have lost the straws, etc. They are not microwave safe but you can wash them in the dishwasher. Only caveat is they are hard to wash inside of, you need a narrow, bushy bottle brush.

I guess you could say they are hard plastic...but they are very lightweight. I prefer a more sturdy bowl..these are too flimsy for me. Good for serving things, but not for mixing things with a beater

They are a hard plastic. Been using for a few months and seem to be pretty decent quality. The blender still rocks!

They are not, they are made from hard plastic with smooth edges all around.

According to Architec's website, the measuring cups are made from recycled bamboo fiber and nonplastic binder.(http://www.architecproducts.com/ProductDetails.aspx?item_no=ECUPS6C&CatId;=c4325c58-8cf6-46ae-ba38-9fe165410554#sthash.09NB0OmO.dpbs).

I doubt they are plastic. Pretty thick and dont break when dropped on a tile floor.

No, they're plastic. What you might expect from that. My scale has a button where you can reset to account for the weight of the cup or bowl. Maybe yours does...
