Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of OXO Good Grips 6-piece Measuring Cup Set, Black
Customer Review: Can't Read'em Anymore
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought these specifically because the manufacturer said the measurement amounts on the handles would not rub off. Well after a few months I could not read them anymore!Customer Review: Disappointing
Summary: 2 Stars
I thought these measuring cups were going to be great to have, since they include the 2/3 cup and 3/4 cup "extras" that come in so handy. However, I have found two things I don't like about them: 1) ingredients don't release well from the texture of these cups, for some reason, and 2) the measuring cups I own are black (I assume these are the same, although there is currently no photo on this site) and started out with brightly colored dots on the handles with the "1" or "1/2" inside them. After only having them a few months, the dot on the 1 C. measure has completely worn off and a couple of others are showing wear. These have always been washed by hand, too. This is particularly inconvenient because the 2/3 and 3/4 cups make it much harder to distinguish by size just by looking at them. Someone needs to go back to design and start over.Customer Review: guess the cup size
Summary: 2 Stars
I received these as a gift last Christmas & have had the same issues as everyone else...the numbers quickly wear off. (Hand washed only) and because of the extra cups, the sizes are so similar it is difficult to distinguish the cup size. Also, ingredients don't "release" well from the cups. Even dry ingredients such as sugar & flour will often stick to the insides of the cups. The soft plastic can also make them difficult to clean, especially if you've used butter or shortening. I'm on a search for a stainless steel measuring cup with the measurements stamped into them to avoid these issues in the future.
On the plus side, the egg separator works really well!
Customer Review: Cheap cups, label wears off quickly.
Summary: 2 Stars
These are cheap quality cups at not so cheap price. First, the plastic ring that holds the cups together is extremely flimsy and can easily break. But my biggest complaint is that the labels will quickly wash off even if you hand wash them! After a while, it becomes difficult to tell what is what in regards to size. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere. This is not the first time I have been disappointed by an Oxo product but it will be my last.Customer Review: Missing numberfs
Summary: 2 Stars
I love OXO products but not these measuring cups. Same issue as others - the numbers vanish quickly. It's easy to always find the 1 cup measure, but when you want to quickly pull out the cups and know that you've grabbed the 1/3 cp measure vs. the 1/4 cup measure, you can't do it. I'm looking for more durable ones right now, which is how I stumbled across these again.
