Customer Rating:      Summary: Use it every day Comment: I use it every day and am glad I have it. It is easy to read and has many different volume units. Prior to buying this from Amazon a few years ago I had to have 2 sets of measuring cups to avoid messes when I needed to measure the same quantity of a liquid and a solid.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Not So Perfect Beaker Comment: I used to have one of these, until the flimsy plastic split down the side. It would be nearly perfect if it were made of Pyrex.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Helpful but could be better Comment: I found this tool to be helpful, especially for liquid measures. The conversion from unit to unit, built into the device, is awesome.
For dry measuring however, this tool is probably not ideal. If you primarily need a dry measure, get something else.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Avoid the dishwasher? Comment: I bought this measuring cup after seeing Alton Brown use it on his "Good Eats" series. It's the most-used measuring device in my kitchen since it has gradiations for about every measuring unit on earth. But, unless the manufacturer has improved it since I bought mine, I wouldn't get it again: it hazed and crackled after cleaning in the dishwasher.
Also, the cuplike base makes it nearly impossible to position in the dishwasher in a stance where it won't accumulate and hold water.
Add to that, the gradiation measures are oddly offset from the tick marks, so it's not immediately intuitive as to whether there's a 1-1/4 or 1-1/2 cups in the thing.
But, given those flaws it's still much easier to use that standard glass measuring cups or individual measuring cups.
Whoever heard of creating a kitchen measuring device that couldn't stand up to a dishwaher?
Customer Rating:      Summary: Versatility-Wet / Dry Measure Comment: I don't even look for my old glass measures. I use this for liquids and dry measures such as milk, water, flour, rice, etc. Accurate and simple to use. The lid is good when you need to store in the fridge without having to worry about spills or getting out some plastic wrap. I'm probably going to buy another one later. Thanks to foodie Alton for this find.
