- Set of measuring cups in 4 basic sizes: 1/4, 1/3, 1/2 and 1 cup
- Durable, stylish, 18/10 stainless steel
- Ultra-hygienic, single-piece construction; no welds or seams
- Half-measurement mark inside cups makes it easy to halve a recipe
- Ergonomically-designed; dishwasher-safe
Made from heavy-gauge 18/10 stainless steel, these stylish and durable measuring cups will never melt, chip, warp, or break like plastic models. This set includes four of the most common measuring sizes: 1 cup, 1/2 cup, 1/3 cup, and 1/4 cup. (Half measurements are conveniently marked inside each bowl--making it easier than ever to halve recipes.) Appropriate for dry ingredients such as flour, sugar, or rice, these nesting cups feature hygienic, easy-to-clean single-piece construction without welds or seams where food scraps can lodge. The ergonomic design balances on counters without tipping over, while a flat rim makes it easy to level off ingredients when precision is essential. An included ring and slotted handles for hanging make even storage a snap. All cups are dishwasher-safe.

| These measuring spoons are excellent. They are heavy duty, have a sturdy handle, and are easy to use. The half measure is very helpful as well. |
| What I Have Always Wanted | 2008-08-22 | 5 / 5 |

I have been looking for something like these for years. I hate when cooking utensils have useless plastic and rubber handles. These have none of the useless features that I don't like. They compliment my cast iron and multiclad cookware with their serious heft. These should be able to last a lifetime if properly cared for.
Other people have complained about these being too shallow. There are not many things in my cooking roster that require an exact measurement and I can't think of many things that do. Heck, my grandmother never used measuring devices and she cooked amazing meals without ever using an exact measurement. |
| Well made, very good-looking, and accurate | 2008-04-09 | 5 / 5 |

Not only do they look good and feel sturdy in your hand, these cups are accurate and easy to scoop and level. I saw an earlier review claiming the wider top meant less accuracy; however, recipes are never accurate when calling for cups/tablespoons/teaspoons anyway (temperature, humidity, and elevation change things too). I use my scale when I need accuracy.
They are more expensive than most other cups, but I bought them more for their look and feel than functionality. I don't think measuring cups deserve that much attention (spend more effort researching your knives and appliances). If you are looking for cups, you can't go wrong with these. If you have reservations on price, buy some other ones. Either way, your recipes won't know the difference, only you will. |
| Feels wonderfully heavy in your hand | 2008-01-31 | 4 / 5 |
|
| These are VERY well-made. They feel great in your hand and are nice to look at as well. The wide mouth on the 1-cup can be a little difficult to measure flour with, but it doesn't bother me. I like the low, wide look of the cups. Gave this item 4 stars because a 3/4 cup measure would have been a nice addition. It's an unnecessary pain to measure out 1/2 then 1/4 cup. |
