Review on Ackers BORO3.3 Glass Measuring Cup - Insulated Handle, V-Shaped Spout - High Borosilicate Glass, Easy Read, 500 ML (18 Oz, 2 Cup) by Jessica Rae

Extremely inaccurate "measuring " cup DO NOT BUY

Unfortunately, I only looked at previous reviews AFTER I ordered this very beautiful and seemingly perfect measuring cup. Too late to cancel, did I realize how bad it could be? This is bad. A one-cup measure differs by a whole ounce. I measured a cup in two different measuring cups and poured it into a new one and both times the volume was less than an ounce. It's odd because it differs by exactly one ounce. I bought it because it had pretty good milliliter markings. I sometimes use European recipes and my usual measuring cups have a large milliliter graduation - 50, 100, 150 - where I need a finer graduation - 60, 70. This measuring cup seemed perfect to me. Unfortunately, I don't have an accurate milliliter measure to test the new measuring cup, so I don't know if the problem is just that the markings on the cup are too high, or the ounce/milliliter markings themselves are inaccurate. spaced. It is so inaccurate that it is completely unreliable and useless for its intended purpose.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Safety
