Is this cup heavy to hold, or is it lightweight? Also, is the plastic top BPA-free?

If you are a normal person, its weight is not a problem. If you are incapacited somehow you probably cannot hold a cup. How in the hell would I know if it is BPA free or not. "Plastic" top seems to be of rubber or silicon. After washing it a time or two and using it for a while you no longer felt like you were sucking on a condum

This cup is certainly heavier than a normal plastic cup, but it is not overly heavy. I would not call the cup "lightweight" by any means; it is understandably heavier because of the material it is made out of. I do not find the weight of this cup to be a deterrent in my use of it.

cup weighs about the same as a ceramic mug. not sure about bpa content in lid... but I believe that silicone does not normally contain it..

Yes, it's lightweight. If you pick up the cup by itself it barely feels like you're holding anything at all - that's how light it is. Or at least that's how it felt to me. I've only ever used cups made of heavier material, so it was definitely a surprise for me.

Hi, I am sorry I cannot give you a precise answer. I purchased this as a gift. I would say between 6 to 8 ounces. It really was a great cup. It was thick and sturdy but not too heavy for a child. The area to grip was in a perfect spot. Hope this helps :-)

mine is bpa free plastic according to the manufacturer. I have had bubba cups for what seems like eternity would not trade them for any stainless steel cup out there.

Doesn't appear to have any plastic parts on it. The outer covering is advertised as leather, but I don't expect it to be exactly "top-grain".Overall, I'm pretty happy with it for the price and the cup feature.

Doesnt say. Cups are very heavy and very breakable. Would not want to drop on my tile floors. Sorry I bought.

Its plastic... I took this with me to mexico and it was awesome... kept my drinks cold for hours in direct sun light. The drinks they gave me in plastic cups were warm in 15 mins. Its not hot pink tho... its dark pink

Have not weight it, but I need to use both hands to lift it without spilling. It is extremely heavy for the size!

It does not say BPA free on the cup. It has a number 2 inside the recycling symbol on the bottom of the cup.

I have both kinds of cups and I have found that the plastic base which is glued onto the metal cup comes off alot. Although Foogo is really good about warranties (every time this has happened, I send it back to them and they send me a brand new one, no charge), its really annoying because it causes the liquid to leak. Also, the metal cups are much heavier than the plastic (if you plan to carry in your purse/diaper bag, etc)

It's very light and the handle is easy to grasp from different angles. I've had the plastic and it's heavier, plus it's not healthy to heat water in plastic. It doesn't spill and you have controlled pouring. It should always be dried out when empty. I love it.

it is a pretty heavy plastic---I brew cold bag tea in mine as for hot water---probably not simply because it is plastic

yes very lightweight. I have severe arthritis in my hands so I also cannot use a heavy cup in the mornings. These are great cups. Well worth the money.

I'd say the top is plastic and it weighs maybe 8 ounces. The top can fold down but that's it.

There is no hard plastic in this cup. The green parts you see are a rubbery silicon-type material. So liquids can touch the green gasket at the top, but that's it. The rest is all glass.

No, this cup is not microwave safe. No microwave symbol on the bottom. It is BPA free and dishwasher safe.
