Smart enough to have made it onto a national TV morning show, this innovative design makes you wonder why it took someone this long to invent it! And that the people at OXO should be the ones will come as no surprise. As you pour into this measuring cup you don't have to scrunch down to eye level, or gingerly lift the cup to see if you've got the right amount. An angled inner rim with markings allows you to read the increments as you look down from the top.

Patented angled calibrations permit reading from above

Standard and metric calibrations

Slip-resistant handle

Safe to use in dishwasher

While I prefer this design to my trusty Pyrex glass measuring container, I don't like to have to think twice about using it with some ingedients. If they ever make a glass version of this cup, I'll buy two!

Works even if you hands are shaky!Jul 20, 2002
By Linda M. Wisman
I have not been able to use a regular glass measuring cup since my stroke five years ago. I cannot measure accurately for two reasons. One is that my hand sometimes shakes making it impossible for the liquid to "settle." The second is that my eyes don't work as well as they used to. I have been forced to use dry measurers, which are not exactly the same in measurment and which are also difficult because of the shaking. With this measuring cup all those are past problems. I can easily measure liquid ingredients accurately. I would highly recommend.

Plastic isn't necessarily a probem.Sep 25, 2003
By T. Buckingham "woodsurgeon"
In regard to the reviewer(s) who didn't appreciate the fact that this item is made of plastic, I'd like to mention that the reason I purchased this measuring cup was because my Pyrex glass one met an untimely death when it slipped into my cast-iron sink. True, it has its drawbacks when measuring oily or very hot liquids, but I'd recommend having a second, glass one for such and purchasing this innovatively designed measuring cup for the majority of your cooking needs. I've been very pleased with all the OXO Good Grip products I've purchased; This one is no exception.

Metric measurements not thereApr 23, 2011
By Joseph
Although the illustration shows milliliter measurements on the inside of the cup, they are on the outside only, defeating the purpose of the angled measuring cup.

Love it - long-lastingDec 29, 2008
By J. Martin
I have easily had this measuring cup for 4-5 years, and it gets very frequent use in my household!

The measurements are easy to read either from the top or from the side.

Another added benefit is that the handle is perfect for hanging; we have a crock full of our spatulas and other kitchen tools; this handle slips right into the crock and allows the measuring cup to hang off the edge for easy access.

Washes up very well in the dishwasher; I was concerned that the letters would wear off with use but so far they are all clear!

Would definitely recommend to a friend or buy as a housewarming gift!
