Pyrex Measuring Cups 3 Piece Clear Reviews Summary

Design and Usability

Pros:

• "These products simply make cooking and baking easier."
• "These dish-washable cups are a must-have staple for any baker."
• "They nestle well together so they don't take up too much room."
• "Dishwasher safe has been game changer."
• "They're sturdy, I can easily read the measurements and they don't wear off like cheaper ones do."
• "These nesting measuring cups save space and provide versatility when a recipe calls for different measures."
• "The clear markings on the cups are precise and easy to read, eliminating any guesswork."

Cons:

• "Impossible to pour without making a mess. The spout design has changed over the years."
• "The spouts on these measuring cups are very shallow, so when pouring anything out of them if you angle the cup just a little too far whatever liquid you're pouring spills over the lip and all over your counter."
• "The pouring spout is terrible. If I am not very precise, it dribbles all over the counter."
• "The pour spouts are short and stubby, and not at all like the pyrex measuring cups of yesteryear."
• "The pour spout is too short, almost impossible to pour liquids in a stream."
• "The 4-qt. measuring cup is impossible to pour from without most of the liquid dripping down the side and onto your counter."
• "The pour spouts on these are ineffective and almost non-existent."

• "These are so sturdy. For being made of glass, they are difficult to break."
• "Pyrex has always produced good sturdy products & these are no exception."

Cons:

• "It's not like the old Pyrex, you just have to be a little more careful."
• "Pyrex has turned to using cheaper production materials such a soda-lime glass which imparts a blue tint to the glass."
• "I was disheartened to discover that the Pyrex I purchased was made with soda-lime glass, compromising its safety and durability."
• "This is no longer the Pyrex made by Corning with kitchen use safe borosilica glass."
• "Now made with soda glass, instead of borosilicate glass. Heavier, and not as well-formed."

• "Great price and quality. Can't go wrong with Pyrex and have used them for years."
• "Perfect for any kitchen, the material is sturdy, easy to read, and easy to clean."

Cons:

• "In less than 6 months, the measurement markings on this cup set have rubbed off and faded rendering them useless for measurement."
• "After awhile the measurements WILL wear off!"
