Nice addition to the kitchen arsenal. Seems to be of good quality and speeds up measuring multiple items for the same dish. Replaces a stack of measuring cups, spoons and bowls for ingredients up to 2 cups. Works equally well for both wet and dry ingredients.
Pros: Easy to Clean/Wash, Value for Money, easy to use, multi-purpose, Appearance/ Design /Style, Performs Well, easy to store, Functional/Useful, capacity

I worry that the rubber seal will break every time I use it, but so far it's held up. I like that there are liquid and solid measures, cups and ounces ... etc. It's dishwasher safe and I've put mine thru the dishwasher several times. I don't do much baking, but I could see how someone who does a lot of baking would love this measuring cup!

I used it to make pie crust and I love how the shortening just came out so easy. You also can get a better measurement. You can see if ther are any breaks in he shortening.
In the kitchen, I'm never without: I will never be without i from now on. Wish I had that years ago.

I've owned another cup like this one from another company that was much more expensive. It worked well for a while, but I didn't like using it because you had to hand wash it. Then I started putting it in the dishwasher anyways and it never fit right since. THIS one is amazing! It already has "give" to it so it doesn't have to fit PERFECTLY to work and it still works GREAT because of the rubber seal in one place. I like that a lot. This one is easy to read (I hope it stays like that) and so far, I've LOVED it. Still works GREAT even after dishwasher cleanings!!! Will buy this again if I ever need a new one!

I have been using a similar product for the last 20+ years. My original "adjust a cup" finally broke and I recently replaced it with one from this site. I had a one cup capacity and bought the two cup version. I am in love!! If you love to cook/bake and you use sticky, thick, oily ingredients you need to get one of these! They are wonderful! Whenever I know of a new bride or a hostess who does not have one of these I always get one of these as a gift. They are always appreciated!
Pros: Appearance/ Design /Style, durability, Long-lasting
Cons: not easy to store

Very Disappointed

I purchased this item after using a smilar item I borrowed from my mom. It worked for the first two or three times I adjusted the sleeve. But after that, the sleeve top separated from the base and every time I tried to rotate the sleeve and pull downward to get the measurement I wanted, the top would get stuck in in the tube and separate from the sleeve. It works fine when you push the sleeve upward to expel the measured ingredients, but it would be VERY difficult to actually measure them. Maybe mine was just defective. It wasn't worth the shipping costs to send it back. Next time I wlil stick with the Pampered Chef model, since it's sleeve is all in one piece and cannot break.
Pros: Easy to Clean/Wash
Cons: Construction, Difficult to use

What a measuring cup

I found that this cup works awesome for dry goods like flour and sugar. But when it comes to the wet stuff, like water, milk, and oil, it has no pour spout on it. This means that at least one of two things has to happen, you either have to be very fast when you're pouring liquids from it. Or, you have to have a big enough bowl to pour it in.
Pros: capacity, durability, Easy to Clean/Wash, easy to store, easy to use, Functional/Useful, Long-lasting, Low noise, Material, Performs Well, quality, size, Value for Money, Weight
Cons: Construction, Performance, good for both wet and dry goods

Yes. I too initially saw this on Alton Brown's show. It's invaluable for those thick viscous ingredients, e.g. peanut butter, shortening or lard, even molasses or honey (esp if you opt not to measure a liquid shortening first). Eases the delivery - with assurance that you are getting it all in! So easy to clean too. With the adjustable component, makes it so you have fewer measuring utensils to clean later.
Pros: capacity, Easy to Clean/Wash, easy to store, easy to use, Functional/Useful, Performs Well

Saw this on Alton Brown's GOOD EATS show and thought it was clever! I am soooo tired of making my holiday candies and wasting honey, molasses and karo syrup that won't come out of the measuring cup. Well, when I saw Alton using this, I just HAD to have one. I got it and I LOVE it. No more wasted syrups and honey. Love love LOVE it! Highly recommend.
