Nice overall quality and price. Only complaint is that the labels are starting to wear which makes the sizes hard to read.

I regularly use this measuring set and would not recommend anyone get them if there is another option available. They do perform the tasks they are designed to ie they measure liquid and solids. I hate that the measuring set, specifically the cups are not weighted properly. By this I mean that when they are empty or filled the cup bottoms do not remain even on the flat surface. They tend to tip or tilt toward the handle. If there is a liquid or solid in the cup, it causes it to fall out. Therefore, a carefully measured amount of food can become not so carefully measured when it falls out on the counter or floor.

For the price, these are okay. I was looking for a cheap set to leave at my boyfriend's apartment. For those purposes, they are good enough. However, I wouldn't recommend them for everyday cooking. They aren't very thick plastic and they stain. The sizes are nice and having so many measuring tools is helpful.

The plastic had me a bit worried but I really disliked the size variations of the metal ones that pushed one to consider also buying the "odd" size set. Now I'm reading to go and I don't feel guilty about having thirty or forty dollars spent and taking up space in my cupboards. I use them constantly. I would prefer metal ones since I put these in the dishwasher but in order to get the equivalent sizes, I would be spending a fortune.

I use these all the time.

I bought this set of measuring spoons and cups because it was the cheapest. I mean, who needs $20 measuring spoons? But I have found that I really like the overall design of these cups and spoons better than many of the more pricey ones available. The are comfortable to use, and good quality.

Be aware, though, that the plastic is fairly easily stained.

This measuring set is a good buy! The handles each have a nonslip rubber coating, which makes this set useful in the kitchen. Everything fits together nicely with a little plastic ring. The only thing to consider is that the set tends to be a little taller instead of wider, so when you put all the cups together they may be too tall for a smaller drawer. Overall, I would recommend this product.

Several of my European friends (who use the metric system) needed cost-effective kitchen tools to measure ingredients for American and UK recipes and asked me to find them a solution. Since this set offered both cups and spoons for less than other items offering only one or the other, and they wouldn't be using them every day, I figured this was the answer.

Sure, the cups tip over when nothing is in them and they're not top quality, but the handles are easy to grip and they get the job done even if you use them all the time for every recipe, all for under $7...well, now for under $9 with inflation and today's prices.

Very affordable and functional set of measuring spoons and cups -- much cheaper than I've seen in stores (LNT, BBB, ...).

The white printing on the handles looks kind of cheap -- but, as I examine it, I see that it's raised plastic surrounded by the black rubber on the handles, so I think it's probably quite durable.

Quality isn't exceptional or anything, but it does the job and is quite cheap.

Well, shame on me. I lost everything in a fire last year and needed all new kitchen gadgets and appliances. I liked the fact that this set had so many pieces, but within six months, the plastic lining began to peel on the interior of the cups. I have thrown them out. I am still using the measuring spoons, but will toss them too when I find a decent replacement set. I am moving on to stainless steel, as I should have in the first place. I had too many items to replace to spend a lot of time reviewing items and think clearly. Fortunately, these have been my only disappointment from my Amazon purchases. I would suggest skipping this lot!

I didn't want to spend alot on measuring spoons and cups so was delighted to see a great deal on this set. Although its made of plastic, they're well made, great grips and feel sturdy. I also like how it has the 3/4 cup and odd set measures unlike standard sets which only have 1 cup, 1/2 cup, 1/3 and 1/4 cups. Same goes for the spoons. The only minor complaint I have are the rings that hold the cups and spoons together. You really need to take them all off the ring to use them due to the odd shape of the ring which makes it awkward to use while they're all still strung together.
