 These are nice, but not all balance when empty. Jan 28, 2008
By Honest Consumer
I really like this set. Long handles...yes the cups are more wide than deep (trying to get used to that)...and they are heavyweight, stainless steel...but
- I find dry foods kind of "stick" to these weird "ridges" on the inside / no one has mentioned that and I have to take special care to wipe them out afterward - more so than with smooth stainless/they are not smooth on the inside/bottom. That's as good as I can explain it.
- The larger cups balance on their own when empty without their handles tipping/touching - back to the counter but the others do not. This may not be a big deal to you - but I thought there would be that consistency there meaning when empty all the handles would stay elevated off the counter, not all of them do...and I get annoyed with some tipping back on their handles when empty...is that just me? I have to stack them all into the 1 cup to keep them from doing that...but they do stack nicely.
I like the sizes...this really is the best set for sizes. If you can afford this set - get it. It is a once in a lifetime buy - these will last a lifetime...
I also like how the markings are clearly engraved into the handles and I like how the handles are straightback level with each cup and long.
Thanks for reading.

 Very Disappointed - Changed for the worse! May 23, 2009
By Slow Shopper
I have purchased 2 sets of these cups. The first was fantastic - very nice, heavy duty, well made. I don't like that the interior surface is brushed rather than polished but they are nice.
I just purchased set #2 and found that the smallest 4 cups are now made of a material that is approximately 1/2 the thickness of the larger 3 cups. These smaller cups are now kind of flimsy. What a disappointment. I bought these because of their solid construction - and now these are not much better than the cheapies at the local big-box store. I would not spend more than $15 for this set now.

Like these a lot! Actually I give them 4 1/2.... Sep 19, 2005
By PK
I bought this set because of the odd sized cups that are included. (and they were on sale...)
They are well made (three point welds attach the handles - Calphalon uses 2)), nest nicely so I can hang them all on the same hook, and are quite attractive...
If there is a downside, it's that they are a little wider and shallower than I prefer (the Calphalon cups will nest inside their equivalents), so I knocked them down a bit.. But perhaps that's just me being picky...
Quite pleased, overall...

Listen to SlowShopper below!!!! Jan 12, 2010
By Andrew D. Anderson
I bought a set of these about 1.5 years ago, then decided to get my mother a set for her birthday a few months ago. The quality is now a 1/4 of what is was before - the weight and spot welds of these cups no longer justify their price. That's a pity - because at one point in time these were very well made. If I catch MIU abusing their brand on another product, I'll be done with them completely.
In the mean time, I recommend that you pass on these measuring cups.

Poor Handle Weld Nov 09, 2008
By Mackerel Bob
Nice set except for the fact the the handle fell off my 1 cuper. I cannot recommend this product.
