Review on Set of 2 Anchor Hocking Graduated Measuring Glass by Nadine Willoughby

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Okay not so strong, some markings are wrong

Good glass, $7 is too much. I would pay $1-2 for a glass. The sharp thin red lines on the straight sides mean it's more accurate than other measuring cups I've used. When new, it is legible. We bought 3. They're good, but not that strong. The markings will gradually fade and are dishwasher safe. A glass broke due to thermal stress (hot from the microwave, then an ice cube), this is normal glass. I have one major complaint: too much labelling. I use it to measure my meds in the morning and every morning I rotate the jar to find the correct set of four. You have three rulers: one with tablespoons and milliliters, one with teaspoons/cups, and one with (liquid) ounces. Personally I'd like to buy metric glass but can't find one in the US. Definitely skip teaspoons and tablespoons - I rarely measure liquids and if I'm doing 1 at most - I'll use a measuring spoon, thanks. Yes, and the marks on the rulers do not match. The rulers have 3 teaspoons and 1 tablespoon at the bottom, exactly the same amount but they are at two different heights. The bottom of the jar wasn't made flat (I have 3 of these, none of them are flat) and I think they kind of moved up and down the rulers as a result. I wouldn't trust this to anything super accurate.

Pros
  • Something about it
Cons
  • Minor problems
