Are these cups BPA free?

That is a great question, but I'm not sure. I never have anything hot in them and I don't microwave them. I'm sure there are other reasons not to have BPA, but since I only use these for dry ingredients, I don't see how BPA would transfer to the food.

Oxo claims that these are BPA free,they look to be coated in a clear plastic,so use your judgment when ordering these. But, these are a quality set of measuring cups. If they are not BPA free,do not do anything to expose them to a high heat & you should be okay with them. If you are still worried about this set, purchase a stainless set of these measuring cups. With our experience,these will hold up better than stainless for obvious reasons.Hope this has helped.

They are not advertised as such, so I would pass on them if you're really concerned about it. I really do love mine, but I thrive on taking risks!

I am not a chemist, but i believe that BPA is primarily used for making transparent plastics (c.f. wikipepedia entry on Bisphenol A which states "BPA-based plastic is clear and tough". Cross referencing another site, it stated "It's used to make plastic hard and shiny yet astonishingly clear, almost like glass, but less breakable."). The only oxo plasitc products which state "BPA Free" also seem to be clear plastic products. Still, while that is evidence, it isn't 100% certain. There is an alternative as well: Oxo has a similar measuring cup set: Stainless Steel Measuring Cups #76381V2, where the cups are metal and not plastic (but unfortunately doesn't contain all 6 that are included in this set). Not pertinent to this question, but one reason these (the plastic ones) are the best set i have ever owned: there is a halfway mark on each measuring cup, so it is simple to measure, say half of 1/3 cup - wow, i love these measuring cups! Good luck, and if you find an official answer, please post it here - i am definitely curious if my assessment of BPA's usage is accurate. -greg frohring

Yes they are. They are also BPA free and top rack dishwasher safe. We love the lids with an opening for a straw.

Unfortunately, it is not BPA free. Only a few coffee makers are BPA free: French Press, Mocha Pot, Chemex Coffee Makers....

According to Rubbermaid's web site, they do not contain BPA. http://www.rubbermaid.com/Pages/LearnAboutBPA.aspx#bpa

I am not certain but I doubt if these are BPA-free since vendors go out of their way to differentiate that product -- and typically charge more for the option.

YES! They are NON BPA which makes it even a more fantastic buy! I took a picture of the label where it says it, but do not think I can put it up here.

Sorry, I threw out the packaging so I don't know. I do recall that that are BPA free, so they do meet US safety standards.

As far as I know only if they are medela brand. They sell them, but they are hard to find. If you end up having to use the plastic ones they at least are BPA free.

No. I had a direct conversation with Mr coffee, and they could not say it was Bpa free. I got a cuisinart from Costco that is.
