Amazon.com Review
Follow recipes with precision for exemplary results with this 1-cup liquid measuring cup from the pros at Pyrex. Constructed in durable Pyrex glass, the non-reactive measuring cup prevents lingering odors, flavor absorption, or staining to ensure ingredient purity. Bright red lines and text help chefs identify dark liquid levels with ease. Fluid ounces and 1/2- and 1/3- cup increments adorn one side of the cup with metric milliliters noted on the reverse for quick measurement conversions. A wide handle provides cooks a comfortable grip, whether bare handed or donning a kitchen mitt. For recipes requiring hot milk or melted chocolate, the cup is both microwave- and oven- safe. The user-friendly measuring cup is also dishwasher-safe. A two-year warranty is available for Pyrex products in the event of heat-induced breakage. Made in the USA, the measuring cup weighs 1 pound upon shipping. --Jessica Reuling

Don't Waste Your Money December 28, 2007

A while back I accidently dropped my 20+ year old Pyrex measuring cup and it broke in pieces. I had had it so long it was like an old friend. I thought, no problem, I'll just order a couple of them to replace the one I broke. I would not consider any brand but Pyrex because my old one had served me so well for years. BIG MISTAKE! These days, Pyrex ain't what it used to be. My original Pyrex measuring cup was almost like hardened glass, almost chip resistant. The ones they now make are made out of a totally different kind of glass. The only word that comes to mind is "cheap glass." But that's not the worst of it. The way the handle is designed is awful. On the current design, you can't get a firm, solid grip because the handle only goes half way down. The old version's handle was like you would find on a coffee cup - the top and tip were attached to the cup part. You knew you had a good grip. Also, if your hand is not completely dry and clean, the cup can very easily slip out of your hand. I won't even pick mine up and hold it by the handle. Too much of a chance it will slip out of my hand. I am in the process of looking for a replacement even if it's just plastic. I do not recommend this Pyrex measuring cup.

Good Product December 27, 2007
The only reason I am rating it a four is that the cup is bigger than a cup and I wish it would continue with the numbers on the side to indicate the extra room. Otherwise, good product.

Perfect size for smaller jobs November 1, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

You can't beat Pyrex. It's tried and true. And this measuring cup in a handy size for smaller jobs. I had the 2-cup version and it just seemed to large sometimes. This is a nice, smaller size -- not so heavy since there's not so much glass. I highly recommend.

The measuring cups where shipped immediately packaged incredibly well, no breakage. I was concerned because the measuring cups purchased are glass.

NOT 'Pyrex' anymore August 5, 2007
3 out of 6 found this review helpful

Pyrex is only a trade name ONLY now, licensed out to World Kitchen. It is NOT the original invention from 1915 that we all remember. It is NOT Pyrex BOROSILICATE glass anymore (after 1998). It is NOT safe to plunge into ice cold water from boiling oven anymore. It's also heavier because it's NOT PYREX anymore! After 1998, when Corning Glass stopped making Pyrex. (Think fiberoptics and bankruptcy, etc.) They sold off their 'household' glassmaking and it reformed as World Kitchen. PYREX is borosilicate glass and very resistant to wear and chip and cracking due to exposure to heat or quick changes in temperature. This is why Pyrex and Kimax and other borosilicate glasses are used for chemistry glassware. (Timex was to watches as these were to chemlabware! Takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin'!) Corning has licensed the name of 'Pyrex' to World Kitchen, but nothing else about it is 'corning glass'. (As an aside - Corning made/makes great glass - of all kinds. A world-beater in their day. Management screwed them over going down the wrong economic road. Do check out their lovely glass museum in Corning, NY!) NOW, World Kitchen makes their 'pyrex' measuring cups out of ordinary soda-lime glass (kitchen drinking glass type). This is NOT safe to expose to heat changes!!!! (Think wear safety goggles - like you WERE working in a CHEM LAB!) I suspect that soda-lime glass is denser than borosilicate, but the actual measure wall thickness may be different now than before, and, thus, this accounts for some of the weight difference. If you want my opinion - find 'vintage' Pyrex Measuring Cups somehow and they will last multiple lifetimes. I have one of my mom's and she has two of her mom's measures. My new ones cannot hold a candle to the old ones (30 to 60 years old) and aren't worth a tinker's damn. Happy times in the kitchen!
