interesting shape, great measuring January 9, 2008
I really like the unusual shape on this measuring cup. The only downside is that you can't fit a whisk in down to the bottom to stir together the wet ingredients before adding them to the dry, which you can generally do with the standard 2-cup measuring cups. I love that it has so many different options around the sides for measurements, including 1/8th cup marks. I have also been somewhat annoyed by the tendency of the base to collect water in the dishwasher - I'll have to try that recommendation to drill a small hole (but why the manufacturer couldn't just do that for us...) Altogether a very handy kitchen tool and I've already used it several times in the few weeks I've had it.

Pkastic Measuring cup December 12, 2007
It is handy to have several types of measure-English and metric on one cup.
Reading the measurements takes some getting used to. The biggest problem is
when washed in a dishwasher the base fills with water too, spilling upon
removal. My husbsand drilled 4 1/8" holes at an angle to allow water in the
base to drain away(don't puncture through to inside of cup when drilling).
This should have been engineered into the product at manufacture.

An A+ for versatility December 5, 2007
This is the most handy measuring unit I've owned. Measurements are clearly marked for teaspoons, ml/ccm, pint units, cups, tablespoons, and ounces. The beaker's design is sturdy and it's deep enough to securely hold a long thermometer.

If you're into cooking and baking, this beaker is a must.

Lid compromised by dishwasher December 3, 2007

Lid is not dishwasher safe, as the ad states. First time in the dishwasher, upper rack, the lid warped. Using a hand-held blender caused the liquid to splash out of the beaker. I returned it.

Nice design, defective printing, don't trust plastic December 3, 2007
3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I love the design. Very nice. The plastic seems too weak. I'd be afraid to put anything warm inside it. Need to be able to measure hot items in cooking. I'd never put it in the microwave. It would be a great design to melt butter for recipes, but I wouldn't trust it to survive the heat.

Mine was defective also. The printing up near the rim was missing. It was some printer error. The labels that tell you what each scale refers to didn't print. There was one that printed about half way (pint) but all of the others were completely missing. I'd have no idea what I was measuring with each scale: ml? oz? grams? cups? no way to know what the scales refer to.

I'm returning it to Amazon. Maybe I'll find a glass one in a laboratory supply.
