Amazon.com Review From Amco's Basic Ingredients line, these stainless-steel cups are essential for bakers and cooks alike. The sturdy handles--conveniently stamped with the cup's measurement--resist bending. Each cup features a small pour spout on each side--large enough for pouring, but small enough to avoid unwanted spills. Made with flat bottoms to discourage tipping, the cups nest for tidy storage and happily traverse the sudsy world of the dishwasher. --Emily Bedard
Measuring is importantAugust 31, 2008 The first thing I learned in cooking , measuring accuracy is the first step in successful recipes. I own all Amco measuring cups and spoons.
measuring cupsAugust 25, 2008 Great product; ranked tops by Cooks Illustrated magazine. Product was quickly shipped, well packaged, and proved to be as advertised. Love those measuring cups !!!
Support weight of cup carefullyJuly 1, 2008 I've been using these measuring cups for approximately 1 month. They feel sturdy enough, however I can feel a slight "give" with the handle when using for heavier ingredients. (e.g: brown sugar)After reading all the reviews of handles breaking off I've been trying to support the weight of the cup not with the handle, but with the base of the cup itself. So far they are holding up well.
Cooks Illustrated recommendedJune 27, 2008 I buy everything and anything that Cooks Illustrated recommends. When I needed a gift for my friend I knew she needs some quality measuring cups and these were recommended so I bought them. She is really happy and will probably never have to replace them the rest of her life.
good dealMay 24, 2008 We've had Williams Sonoma measuring cups for years and wanted to have a few extra. These Amco cups are a slightly lighter guage metal than the Williams Sonoma but have been serviceable for the several months we've been using them. The Williams Sonoma are better, but these are a good deal.
