These are wonderful!! I use the 2 cup measuring cup every time I make a loaf of bread. Love having this size!These are great sizes, and clean easy. My one complaint (so far) is that the size on the handle has washed off already. I have used the 1 /12 cup size for about a week now and the size has disappeared.Never thought I’d see a 2c measuring cup, but man seeing the numbers wipe off right out of box made me sad for sure, the ring snapped during shipping, so there goes that bit of plastic. I had sharpie laying around to fix the numbers, still I’m a fan of sizes only because I make a lot bread, so it’s nice to have big cups to make things go faster.These measuring cups are great if you need oversized portions. They don’t have the standard measurements but have 1 1/2, 3/4 cups and so forth. They are a very pretty color combination. If you don’t hang them, they can be stored in a fairly shallow drawer. Perfect when making large batches of anything!Most of other measuring spoon sets do not have this many variety of measurements. It measures up to 2 cups, which is not common. The bright and distintive colors make it easy to locate the measuring up you need. They look great and are fun to use.The only potential downside is that the measures are printed on the handle of the measuring spoons rather than engraved. I hope they down fade off after a few use, but for now, they are great. We baked a cheesecake using this set and it turned out great. :)These are great the spoons serve it’s purpose and the colors are beautiful.Got these for my daughter when she moved away for college. she liked them very much and uses them everyday. Good value, seems well made & hopefully long lasting. Happy with product and would recommendWhat makes these measuring cups really nice is the odd sizes they measure. Conventional measuring sets have 1 cup, ½ cup, 1/3 cup & ¼ cup. When calling for something like ¾ cup, I either use the ¼ cup measure three times or the ¼ cup & ½ cup. It’s two extra steps the first way & two dirty measuring cups the second.No, it isn’t a huge problem, but if a person doesn’t have to measure the odd amounts using more than one cup, then it’s less time & faster cleanup.There’s also the possibility that the measure won’t be accurate. If I have a recipe that calls for four cups of flour, for instance, I will move something on the counter into a separate little stack to count out the cups as I pour them in. Using the two-cup measure twice isn’t hard to remember.These cups are brightly colored plastic & have a matte finish. The insides are glossy, probably to make it easier to pour out the ingredients. There are six of them & the cups measure ¾, 1, 1¼, 1½, 1¾ & 2 cups. They’re connected together with a plastic ring that unsnaps so it can be easily removed.I ordered the set in blue & the picture showed each cup a different pastel color. All the sets were like that so I don’t know what distinguished the blue set from any other color set. It doesn’t matter to me. These are really great measuring cups & they’ll get used a lot.
