Product Description
THE COOK’s TOUR
Some of the most useful tools are the most boring. With apologies to the designers, who put their heart and soul into making these better, measuring cups are BORING. You buy reliability, and maybe a needed feature or two. PYREX® glass has always been known for its ability to operate in a lot of extreme kitchen environments.
Their big win though? It’s super BORING
WHAT THEY DO
The painted line marks are ACCURATE.
Zzzzzzzzzzzz…
Some of your off-brand measuring cups don’t measure up.
They can have measurement lines on them, and be very far off from right.
How do you test that? Simple, put it on a digital scale. See how far off the measure is from the line.
If your old reliable turns out to be old, but not so reliable, by a PYREX®
The Brand You Trust – Reliably wonderfully BORING.

MY TAKE
Truth moment: I use scales to measure. I use these measuring cups more for their ability to pour well, and their convenience in the microwave, refrigerator, etc. While PYREX® is far more accurate than every other glass measuring cup that I’ve used, they’re still a little off. For most applications, not a big deal. For ones, especially in baking, where you’re trying to get your ratios right? Bad ju-ju.
PYREX® will last for years and years. After a certain amount of abuse, though, they will take one fall, off of the counter, too many, and that, sadly will be that. Given that you’ll probably spend less than $1.00/year to use one though, it’s a pretty fair trade, in my book.
I give the PYREX® 1L/4c measuring cup my Four Diamond Choicestuff™ award for the consistently, reliably being a boring kitchen workhorse.
