📏 Anchor Hocking - 8 oz Measuring Cup: Precision and Practicality at Your Fingertips Review

Arrived yesterday. I put them in the dishwasher and one broke from the heat and water pressure. The other doesn't. We have several of these and I've never seen a tempered glass measuring cup break in the wash.

Spout is too small to pour liquids out of without making a mess unless you pour the smallest trickle out of it. However, the marks didn't go away after a few washes in the dishwasher, so that's a good thing. But I think there are probably better measuring cups out there - I went cheap and you get what you pay for.

Less than a month later my wife tried to use a whisk to mix the vinegar and oil in this cup but it suddenly exploded with a big bang, shattering and scattering glass throughout the kitchen and adjoining dining room, living room and even down to the bedroom. The fragments easily injured her fingers; It's definitely not safety glass.

Not satisfied. i am right handed I like the handle on the right side when filling with ingredients so I can fill and pour. In the picture it was shown with ounces on the preferred side and metric units on the other side. When it arrived I noticed that the opposite was true. I wouldn't order it with that configuration, but it's not worth the time and hassle to return it and re-order from a different supplier.

I bought this after being disappointed with pyrex 1 cup. That's exactly what I need. It's tall and thin, making it easy to measure. It has a good spout that pours easily. The Pyrex 1 cup is now wide and flat making measurements difficult and the spout is terrible. This Anchor Hocking is spot on, which ironically is exactly the same as my old Pyrex 1 cup. This is the mug you are looking for.

I chose this mug over another standard mug, Pyrex, because: 1. Cup sizes are listed on both sides. I'm left-handed, so I don't have to turn it over to read the measurements, which is what I use most.2. It's slightly narrower and taller than the Pyrex, so the difference between 1/3 and 1/2 cup, for example, is larger, making it easier to read. FYI I've seen a lot of reviews of how mugs are poured and I think this spout is ok.

I was disappointed that Pyrex didn't offer a thinner 1 cup measuring cup instead of a thicker one which didn't fit well in my cupboard. We then found this Anchor Hocking Cup at Revain and it arrived today. I was very pleased that the glass is tempered and heavier, the poor spout is better than pyrex, and there's even a cupboard cut-out at the top of the handle. I would like the handle to close and not open from the bottom, but that's secondary.

Anchor Shock is a good product. This measuring cup was intended to replace my old one which had the measuring marks removed over the years in the dishwasher. I mean over 40 years of use. Like other reviewers, I don't like the hook handle. I'll be scouring antique stores to see if I can find one of the old closed loop handle styles. The only reason I only have 3 stars. Works great in the microwave for melting butter or heating water, and the handle stays cool enough to be easily removed from the

This was the 4th time I've ordered this mug and the first 3 times it was just like the picture but the last one I received was very short , wide, squat, cheap , poor quality measuring cup with a ridiculous, inadequate tiny handle I can't even grasp, no measurement markings 1/3 cup and 2/3 cup - not the item I ordered in the photo, even though he said that this is an item I have bought 3 times before. The mug I just received does not have the Anchor Hocking logo and I cannot see this mug on the…
