are these the same as the baguanfa silicone cups sold by ICTA, or the silicone cups sold by Lhasa Oms? I just want to be sure they are the same thickness, stiffness/softness, etc.

I actually purchased these cups from Amazon last year for a birthday party. I am not selling them. Sorry!

Hey Barb.....I think I might have paid.....$10/pair for mine. There's only one seller selling these on Amazon right now and they're being shipped from Asia for like $35. These ARE NOT $17.50 cups each....they're nice.....not THAT nice though.

I thinks the cups are a standard size. When I ordered them I did not specify show size. They feel great and last a long time.

Hi James, the best place I have found to get replacements tips is: http://arcmate.com/search.aspx?find=replacement+cups+indoor+use look under "replacement cups indoor use" they are only $4.00 for set of two. These are not latex, they are silicone and will last a long, long time. By the way, I love the EZ Reacher Deluxe. Amazing!!

The country of origin is China. But that isn't so important, the quality of the silicone is. We use 100% pure food-grade silicone, 100% BPA-free and do not use any fillers. Cheaper brands often use plastic fillers. Fillers can compromise the quality and durability of silicone. You can test this yourself by doing the "pinch and twist" test. Just twist a bit of the silicone, if it turns whitish, it's got plastic fillers. Pure silicone will retain its color. Hope this helps. -Suzanne

Hello Mary Beth, These are manufactured in the USA. Compare with other brands not manufactured in the USA and you will find they are more durable, better quality then that of the Chinese made counterparts, and they are NOT manufactured with fillers, much like the Chinese made cups. These are 100% food grade silicone. To test for fillers in the Chinese made cups, stretch the cup and you will see the the color turn white in the creases or bends. Ours do NOT turn white because they are NOT manufactured with fillers. 100% food grade silicone creates a better product all the way around. It is cheaper for the larger retailers and some online retailers to purchase off shore and ship state side. We chose not to follow that process and found a manufacturer that met our needs for silicone baking cups. We hope you enjoy their quality. - The Quality Indulgence Team

I'd guess they're standard cupcake size, about the same as the paper cups you can pick up in the grocery store. This is actually the second set of silicone cups I've purchased as our gang really likes them. They release cleanly without tearing the cakes and I use them over and over again.

While, I bought an imitation brand from china, these are silicone. You should never microwave silicone or plastic, even if they say they are microwave safe they still leach chemicals. Only microwave ceramic or glass.

Actually, they feel more like ceramic. I also have cups that _are_ made from the same material as the plates - they're shorter, wider, with smaller handles. These are not the same. These do feel better in the hand, though.

I have a set of four -each a reproduction from a different artist. All four were made in Thailand. They are lovely cups, have held up well - I just put them in the dishwasher, i.e.no special handling. Very happy with them.

Hi, the ones we received are exactly the same brand and quality as found in the hospital. We had to use a couple of them at home and had no issues whatsoever. Very good price on Amazon for these....

I never have , but I would assume they would work fine because the silicone will grip to your cup.

I think they're faux leather? I did, in fact get the cups pictured here, and I'm pretty satisfied. You can get similar cups at your local hobby/gaming store, but for a little more money than Amazon.

No, they are made from a different material, a lightweight ceramic. Not the same as the plates. There are some older cups that are made from the same material as the plates, but I don't know if they are just available as used items - Amazon or Ebay - or if they are currently being made. Ann

Alas, unfortunately, they are. I have a set and I really like them. Just checked under a cup to check for your question, and they are clearly marked "made in China." It's a shame. :(

I don't really know any more. They are a small cup for tea. They also break really easily so I donated what I had to St Vinnie's. I like bigger tea cups and was misled by the picture when I bought them. Sorrry, t
