I'd been working with only a liquid measuring cup for too long, so I bought these because I knew they'd fit in my drawers. I wasn't sure how sturdy they would be, but I'm not worried about that now that I've used them for a couple months. When they're expanded, you might not even know they're collapsible. And there are only two possible positions--collapsed and expanded--so it's not like they will give different measurements if you somehow mangle them (something I had been irrationally concerned about).

The magnets are a nice touch, I suppose, but only the 1/4 and 1/3 cups are light enough to stay put on my fridge, so the other three sit in the drawer sticking to my measuring spoons.

Edit: The lettering on the measuring cups was pretty much unreadable after about a year, so I have to compare the sizes to tell which is which. Still love 'em, though.

Very useful product for measuring nearly any ingredient you need. The magnets stick very well and aren't light or flimsy in their feel. I tend to think people underestimate feel of a product and these feel very nice and of decent quality.

I use these things multiple times a week for things as simple as instant oatmeal. Very handy and convenient.

The collapsing of the cups are a little stiff, but it's hardly worth mentioning.

Great product that I would recommend for sure.

After having to deal with non-collapsible measuring cups for umpteen years and having them clutter up my drawers, I decided that I would start anew and get myself some of these fancy collapsible measuring cups. Thank goodness I did! I recently moved to a small apartment, where cabinet and drawer space is prime real estate. Without these guys, I would have easily had to use up a significant portion of what little space I had. These guys collapse and stack to take up very little room at all. They are magnetized so they stay together and I won't lose one. I don't stick mine on the fridge, so can't say if that works, but for what I use them for, they're gems. The measurements do come off after washing (even though I hand wash), but I will just have to keep them stacked properly and I should have no problem picking out the size I need. They're easy to wash and don't get oily even though I do use them sometimes for wet measurements. I haven't calibrated them yet, but everything I've made with them has turned out great. I love Progressive and their little gadgets have got me hooked! Keep up the good work!!!
