A fine addition to anyone's minibar. I rate this jigger a Strong Buy.

Pros:- This little guy is well made. It has a nice heft and contoured edges with a pleasing smooth finish. It looks professional and I'm proud of it's inclusion to my minibar.- It is well balanced and stands securely on both of its edges- top and bottom.Cons:- My gripe might not be an issue with real bartenders, but I noticed that you'd have to fill it all the way up to the brim in order to get the FULL EXACT ounce / 2 ounce capacity. For me. that means spills on my counter, unless I…

Pros
  • This is simply a very good bar tool. Good quality. Every home bar should have one.
Cons
  • Got it yesterday and it somehow has a rust spot already not happy at all

Feels good for my opinion

Got it to stupid proof making drinks when I have someone else tending the bar. Got zero complaints from my guests so it worked like a charm. I am happy with the brand and will look at their other products to see what my bar could benefit from.

Pros
  • Neat looking
Cons
  • The jigger may be prone to fingerprints and smudging, which can detract from its appearance

My only issue is that I waited so long to buy one. Just. Great.

This is the jigger you want. I've struggled with others, and now I've tasted jigger Valhalla. Just works. Simple, easy to read in moderate/poor lighting (biggest issue w/ glass jiggers), wish I had bought this a year ago. Simply great.

Pros
  • Jigger works well.
Cons
  • The jigger's design may not appeal to all bartenders or home bar enthusiasts

Streamlined: my feedback

I prefer stainless bar implements for looks, ease of cleaning, and durability. This jigger ticks all those boxes with style.The smaller footprint saves space, and the inner markings are clear and helpful. Although care instructions say you could run this through the dishwasher, it is easy enough to wash in sudsy hot water.

Pros
  • Jigger is great inside has different ounces for measuring
Cons
  • The Vintage Barfly Japanese Style Jigger is made of metal, which may rust over time

Low quality product

Broke in the middle after very little use. Large and small measuring cups are joined by poor quality soldering in the middle.

Pros
  • Exelent
Cons
  • The jigger may be prone to tipping over when placed on an uneven surface

Accurate and sturdy

I have ordered jiggers before that are not actually accurate, causing my drinks to be slightly off. I have measured this jigger with other equipment, and it is almost 100% on point. The material is thick and sturdy, and it looks very good as well. The interior markers are easy to read and easy to clean.

Pros
  • QUALITY CONSTRUCTION: Crafted with vintage finished stainless steel core construction for greater strength and durability, and satin finish interior helps hide wear
Cons
  • The jigger's small size may make it easy to misplace or lose in busy bar environments

Great finish on my review.

I made myself a kit from all the gold finished products from barfly and could not be happier. The markings on the jigger are slightly hard to read, however I am getting used to it. Love the quality and look of the gold finish

Pros
  • I love it all round!
Cons
  • The jigger's narrow shape may make it difficult to clean thoroughly

Diseño y precio - my new review

Muy buen diseño y funcionalidad, permite preparar fácilmente todo tipo de cocktails, utilizando las distintas medidas internas que además proporciona.

Pros
  • This is amazing, already have the average heavy duty one and both are great to use.
Cons
  • The measurement markings may wear off after frequent use

Better than the short, wide jiggers

Much easier to measure, much more accurate, and I spill a lot less. Got the 1.5oz/1oz and the 0.75oz/0.5oz as well. Thanks for attention.

Pros
  • Got me drunk beyond expectations!
Cons
  • Quality control at BARFLY should have NEVER allowed this to leave their facility.

It's a Japanese Style Jigger!

What's to say about a jigger? The Japanese look is what I like and the quality of construction is solid with good looking seams and curled-in rims. I suppose they could stamp the measurement marks a little deeper but then again, my eyesight could be better as well. :)

Pros
  • Like the added notches on the for the 1.5oz, .75oz and .50oz. Wish there was a .25oz option
Cons
  • The jigger's measurements may not be precise enough for those requiring exact measurements

Striking design good for me

It's a striking design, all right, and easy to use - kind of. There are no markings for the full 1 ounce or 2 ounces, so you have to fill it up to get those amounts, not exactly precision, but it's for mixing drinks, so better to err on the side of generosity. There are markings for 1.5 ounces on the 2 ounce size, and 1/2 and 3/4 ounces on the 1 ounce side. On the 1 ounce side there are three dimples or bumps on the bottom, I guess where the two cones connect. All in all, a neat-looking bar…

Pros
  • Great
Cons
  • The jigger's surface may be slippery when wet, increasing the risk of dropping and breaking

Love this Jigger good for me

This Jigger works great for making cocktails and just looking cool on your bar. I mean everyone wants a home bar, but after going through the expense of buying or making one you want cool furnishings too. This jigger is that. Easy to use, it just looks cool on your bar.

Pros
  • Easy and fun to use!!! This is exactly what you need for a fun night
Cons
  • The jigger may be too small for those who prefer larger cocktail pours
