"OXO Good Grips"
Great product!!!!! Very handy........I love not having to hold the cup up in front of me to see the markings....I recomend it highly.

"Good Measuring cup"
Easy to read. Cleans up easy. Dishwasher cleans it well. Nice and light not bulky ,heavy ,hard to read like old glass cups. I tossed my old glass cup out when i bought this one.

"Love OXO & Love this Cup !"
I've used this cup for over 5 months, and couldn't live without it. I ordered all the other sizes in this OXO style angled measuring cup from Amazon; and no problems. I've put cold broth & cold foods in them and they work wonderful. No more leaning down to see how much is in it, you just look in the top, and the red numbers and letters are very visible. The grip handle is a very nice bonus. Fast shipping, excellent quality, and good prices, too. Would buy again.


"Great Measuring Cup, Great Value!"
*****
I love these measuring cups because I can see exactly how much I'm putting into them from above instead of peering and squinting at the measuring lines from the side. They are priced well, and very useful. They come in all sizes, from mini-size (1/4 cup) all the way up to 4 cups, and come in sets as well. They are made of a sturdy type of hard plastic. The measuring cups are dishwasher safe, but should not be used in the microwave.

I haven't had any problems with them. My husband recently began to use one of them for measuring his boiling water for oatmeal in one, and so far it has held up great. However, I like them so much, that I'm worried that the markings on the inside may wear off in time, so I'm getting him a special glass one of his own. I would therefore recommend them ideally for dry ingredients or for cool wet ingredients.

They are handy, easy to store (I can stack mine by staggering the handles) and easy to clean. The handles are made of rubber for easy gripping, very nice. I still have some of my old traditional measuring cups but I only use these.

"nice design, faulty manufacture"
I'm normally a fan of OXO products and own many of their gadgets. These measuring cups are the first problem product I've had from OXO...both the 2 cup and 4 cup sizes cracked on the bottom of the cup, right at the plastic injection point (that little circle with the tiny bump in the center of it), and they both now leak at the crack. These cracks developed very soon after I bought them, and I only ever washed them in on the top rack of the dishwasher. Because of the design of the cups, it's kinda annoying to wash them by hand - and they're not great for measuring dry ingredients for the same reason. So mine have gone into the garbage can, replaced by the KitchenAid cups of similar appearance (although without the handy interior measuring marks). My advice, keep your receipt if you buy these. Or skip them and get the KitchenAid, which have a non-slip rubber ring on the bottom, another nice feature. And they won't crack in the dishwasher.

What our customer's say!

"First bad OXOperience", Worked good for a few weeks, but the measurements have flaked off after just a few uses. It's been hand washed with mild detergent, so not sure what's going on...usually Oxo has great build quality and forethought!

"good idea, but not durable", I recieved mine as a gift two years ago. Last month, mine cracked and now leaks at the bottom. I would rather buy a pyrex cup that will last my lifetime intead of something like this that I will have to throw away every two years.

"Genius", This is a great measuring cup. It has every measurement you could want clearly printed on it. No more bending over to see if you're hitting the right measurement. Comfortable handle, light-weight, cleans easily. I have a 4-cup, 2-cup, and 1-cup, and a set of three of the small 1/4 cup tablespoon measures, which are worlds better than using measuring spoons for small amounts of liquid. The only think that could make these products better is if they were made of Pyrex. What a dream that would be!

"Great for cooking kids! ", i like these cups for being able to see what you need from the top, instead of setting it down on the counter to settle out or holding it up in the air. Also, these features were especially helpful for my 8 yr old to use. She felt more confident on pouring because she could see if she had enough or not, before she over poured. I haven't noticed any problems with certain fats, although I might not have used them in there yet. I will always keep a pyrex in the house though!

"It works", I've had the other sizes that OXO offers for some time. As another reviewer notes, you can't use certain things with it, but for measuring everyday, standard liquids, its great. I use it for measuring the water for my coffee. It saves me a trip to the water cooler (yes, I actually have a Hinckley Springs water cooler with Purified Drinking Water...primarily for drinking, but it helps make GREAT coffee).

One other thing: I find that it pours perfectly well. One reviewer said it didn't. I've found that the glass Pyrex measuring cups (which I use for those "other" liquids and if I'm microwaving) don't pour well.

"Clever but...", ...the darn thing had to be replaced twice in 6 months because it cracked on the bottom, dead center, and the milk I was measuring leaked out.

I love the idea, though.

"A Pleasure To Use", I am a professional baker and I absolutely love this product. Not only is there no bending over, but the measures are in single units so there is no guessing (many cups only mark 2 oz, 4 oz which makes 1/2 oz measures difficult).

"Cook uses cup", This was my find for Christmas. Everybody on my list got one. The printing is clear and stays visible through many dishwashings. The oval shape means it pours into an electic mixer bowl with no problems. I can brace the cup on the top of the mixing bowl and let molasses run out. The measurements are accurate and the contrast means little confusion.

"An excellent improvement over the usual..", I think the ability to read the measures without bending over to look at the measures so they are line of sight is excellent. I have spent less, if any, time pouring liquids...bending to look...getting back up and adjusting only to have to get back down and look again...

I find all this adjusting pretty tedious and I think the set up of this allows for more accurate measures the first time around. A plus that is a great convenience... The handle feels good and its non-slip which helps as you are deaing with liquids. I really like this brand for very reasonable gadgets at almost always great prices. I chose the 4-cup version as it isnt a size that I have. Sometimes I will fill the cup with chicken stock, let it cool a bit and take off the congealed fat. The smaller versions would be too small for this use.

I think it could be a bit easier to pour but with a little care and attention, I havent had any disasters with it. oxo is a great brand for stocking a kitchen in my opinion. Reasonably priced items that in general last very well under home use and there is usually a comfort feature (like the handle) included in the design. Bravo again!

"Great idea", So much easier than the standard measuring cups. I hope they will make it in the glass also.
