OXO Good Grips 7-Piece Nesting Measuring Beaker Set

I definitely recommend these nesting, liquid Measuring Cups, if you enjoy cooking and baking.I do a lot of Baking; once or twice a week, year round, and more, during the Holidays. These nesting Measuring Cups make it easy to add precise amounts of Liquids, to your Recipes, especially if you measure your quantities in Grams/Milliliters, as they are clearly marked in both scales, (Imperial vs Metric), on opposite sides of the Measuring Cups.The nesting feature of these Cups also mean they really only take up the same amount of Cabinet/Drawer space as an ordinary Measuring Cup.

A surprise gift for my sister. She's one of these people who does everything by the book so i thought these would help her stay on track as it has easy to read measrement for teaspoons, tablespoons, cups in all incurments. They all fit inside each other so they don't take up much drawer space. I enjoy using mine when i remember I have them.

a good option to measure small liquid amounts

Marks haven't faded yet, after multiple trips in the dishwasher. Easier for measuring small amounts of liquid than spoons. Grandkids love them!

As described

I’ve been using these for years and like them so much that I bought more.What I like:Easy to pour stuff into them.AccurateSit sturdily on a flat surface.Easy to read markingsEasy to pour out ofClean up nicelyCan be moved around without spilling easily. They leave some room at the top so that you don’t have to fill them all the way up - YAY! Love that I can pour out milk or cream and then set the container in the fridge so it doesn’t sit out while I’m browning the meat or what have you.STURDY - I have exceptionally, extraordinarily hard tile and these things do not break when I drop them. Also, I can toss them into the sink instead of setting them down or all of them to it. They don’t break from normal use.What I don’t like -1. Dullness. If you run them through the dishwasher enough times, the clear plastic gets a tiny bit cloudy. Still totally usable and doesn’t prevent you from seeing the markings or whatever you’ve poured - just dull. So now I hand wash them.2. Not color coded. I have two big sets and bought one small set because those get used more and I like to have everything set up (mise en place!) without having to rinse and reuse in the same recipe/meal. The small set is not colored the same! The same size container will be two different colors, depending on which set it came from. So color-coding is not helpful and slows me down - “Wait, which one is this?” It’s like traveling to the city next to yours, which has stoplights where red means go and green means stop. You’re always going to be wondering what city you’re in and have to check. Kind of annoying.I think I will order a third big set and drop the little ones at the Goodwill. It is just too confusing.To be fair, the pictures are accurate and if I’d checked before buying, I’d have known that the same size will be two different colors. It sure would’ve been nice if someone had thought of that, though.(I saw a lot of people asking questions about what you can put in them: FOOD, liquid or not liquid. These are not science beakers. If you put caustic chemicals in them, they may get damaged. If you are using chemicals, get chemical beakers, not food ones.)Overall really, really pleased. :)

Accuracy and quality is good

Very handy and stack well.
