Kitchen essential at my house!
»
I broke my measuring cup like this recently, after it had served faithfully for 20 years--I know because we got it as a wedding gift! In just a couple of weeks of NOT having it, I have realized just how important it is in my kitchen! I reach for it all the time, for measuring, but also for mixing and melting (in the microwave). Gotta get another, right now!

Doesn't pour well
»
I got this to replace a similar Anchor Hocking 1-quart measuring cup, because that one pours so poorly. Unfortunately this one is no better. Call me picky, but I'd say measuring a liquid is only half the task. The other half is pouring it successfully into a bowl or pan or coffeemaker or whatever.
Also: I don't fault Pyrex for this, but the 1-quart line is barely below the level of the spout. If you want a cup with a little more headroom -- so you can stir some powder into the four cups of liquid, for example -- you're better off with the Anchor-Hocking.

Pyrex Prepware 1-Quart Measuring Cup, Clear with Red Measurements
The Pyrex 1-quart measuring cup at @4.99 is good value for the money. It is the old fashion type that is made of glass, which makes it heavier and sturdier but more prone to breakage. However, you will not have to worry about the lettering fading over time. Since it is made of glass and larger than most measuring cups at 1-quart size, you can heat up many of your recipe liquids in this measuring cup without making another dish dirty. There are two downsides. First is its large size that takes up more room than other measuring cups. However, I keep it stacked in other bowls to take up less room so this hasn't been that big a problem. Second, it is made of glass. This is both a postive and a negative. I like that it is made of glass so I can cook items in the microwave using this measuring cup. However, it is much easier to break. All in all, I am glad I made this purchase.

Good value

Bought several sizes, all are good value compared to "in-store" cost. Sturdy, balanced handling. Arrived intact.

It Pyrex, what else can you say?
»
As always, I love Pyrex, it is durable and dependable. Every kitchen must have this essential measuring cup. I have these in my home kitchen and was adding this to my summer house kitchen. I find that I don't just measure in this but use it for many things, from making pudding to mixing up pancakes. I love the easy pour spout, especially for pancakes.
Must have one (or more) in every size for every kitchen!
