Compaired to other sets, you get more in this set for the same price or less without giving up quality. Plus, you can't put stainless sets in the microwave to melt butter.
Pros:
1. Large set with odd sizes (like 3/4 cup)
2. I won't likely use the really small (like 1/32 tsp) but they can be used as a flour leveler to scrape over the top with the larger cups.
3. Sizes are not printed/painted on so they won't wear off
4. Weighted properly so that when I set it down they lay flat. My old set tipped over.
5. Nice mix of colors which makes them pretty but also makes it easier to tell close sizes apart.
6. The measures are in labled in cups and mL. No conversions.
The only thing I don't care for is that they don't stack together perfectly. The set is in 3 parts - 1 set of large cups, 1 set of medium cups and then a set of spoons.Each individual set stacks well, but when putting the 3 sets together they don't nest perfectly. Minor detail, so it's not worth subtracting a star over IMHO.

My last set of measuring cups had sadly dwindled down to 3 different sizes. It was getting difficult to measure 1/3 of a cup out of a 1/4 cup measuring cup. I found this set in my search, and it seemed interesting that it seemed to have a variety of sizes. Ah-ha! For someone whose sets seem to disapear with the socks and tupperware lids, it seemed great. (My personal theory is that aliens need these items to power their space ships :). These cups are sturdy, 'nest' well, and stay that way. No spilling all over the cupboard because they were touched. And the number of sizes makes recipies easy! Having just 2 people to feed in our home means reducing recipies, and this set has sizes that will actually allow us to measure odd amounts.

I was looking for a measuring spoons and cups with the labels raised in the plastic (as part of the plastic). I found that the labels printed on eventually fade away. I love to bake and cook and constantly having to wash the measuring spoons and cups was a bit annoying. I love this set and highly recommend it. It has the spoons and cups that one would regularly see in a recipe; 3 cups, 2 cups, pinch tsp, dash tsp,etc. If you bake and cook a lot, you will love this set. I don't care for the colors, but everything else is fine.

This 19 piece measuring set is a huge time saver. I have a habit of doubling and halving recipes, so I always end up with odd measurements. With uncommonly sized cups, I end up with more precise measurements and I don't have to spend so much time with multiple cups.
