2.0 out of 5 stars Form over function May 27, 2011
Color Name:White and Green|Amazon Verified Purchase
I bought this mainly because it looked so much cooler than any other spaghetti measures I had seen. It's pretty cool to play with, but unfortunately it is really not very practical as a spaghetti measure. The main problem is that the aperture blades will not stay in the same place when you try to measure spaghetti.

I've tried two methods to measure spaghetti with this product and neither works well. The first is trying to hold this measurer over a box of spaghetti and "pour" out the pasta. This doesn't work because it's really hard to keep the measurer in place while the spaghetti comes out, and once the spaghetti comes through the opening it tends to force open the aperture blades. The second method I use is to grab a handful of pasta and bring the measurer over the top and down the bundle. This doesn't work either, because it's impossible to keep a firm grasp on this measurer without bumping the serving size control tab. It also just doesn't help that I have to use a guess and check system of grabbing what I think is the right amount of pasta, and then confirm whether it's too much or too little with the measurer.

The other reviewers of this product have noted that the portion sizes are too big. I haven't really noticed this, probably because I tend to eat a lot. But even if the portion sizes were correct this is still a pain in the butt to use.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't be dazzled by the cool telescopic action. July 23, 2010
Color Name:Red and Grey
I bought this because of the minimalist design; I wanted a spaghetti measuring device that could measure out single or multiple serving sizes without taking up too much room in my small kitchen and this one seemed to fit the bill. As the other reviewer said, the single-serving size is very large -- it is perhaps a serving size for a beefy male marathon runner. Snazzy form, terrible function.

1.0 out of 5 stars INACCURATE MEASURE January 29, 2010
By G&P
Quality ok. However, if you are wanting a tool to count on for portion control, this misses the mark. The portion marks on the Spaghetti Measure are off by more than one half portion. Maybe not a big deal to most, but if health and nutrition are your focus, this tool should be carefully considered. I measured a single portion of spaghetti in this tool, then removed and weighed the same spaghetti on a very accurate digital food scale. According to the food scale, and the serving size on the box of pasta, the portion was equal to one and three quarters serving of pasta! Just be careful or you will consume many more calories than you intend. As a portion estimate, maybe ok, but I do not recommend this product.

Product was received timely. Ordered as a Christmas gift, therefore, have not used it yet. Rather small, but if it works then size doesn't matter.
