Love the Pyrex one! have had it and used it for more than 20 years and it still looks like new! And it's accurate!

Pyrex all the way. It was Julia Childs favorite and hers resides in the Smithsonian Museum in a replica kitchen of hers. Honestly I'm surprised ATK didn't mention this wonderful cooking nugget of information about Julia.

We had that Oxo measuring cup, if you measure hot liquids with it, it will eventually crack after a few months as it's pretty flimsy.

[EJGruber]

I can't explain why I find this interesting but here I am

[mactrek]

I have both winners and I like them both, however Pyrex will always be my front runner.

[kathleengreen]

I’ll always love my Pyrex! I have them in three sizes. The one I treasure the most is my mother’s two cup Pyrex. We made many pies and delicious recipes with it! 😘

[DXnationmember]

Been using the OXO good grips for many many years. Love them!

[donleyp]

I love it when ATK validates my purchases. I've been using both of those cups for years :)

[wdavid]

I've used the pyrex and the oxo and I have to say, I love them both for different reasons.

[janeforever]

I love my Pyrex that I've had for years.

[juantamez]

I've had my Oxo measuring cups for over a year now and love everything about them. It's worth mentioning that 1-cup to the 6-cup nest really well

[Knappa]

I bought the Oxo one years ago and have never looked back. So easy to read.

[chrisanderson]

In chemistry class, the glassware was Pyrex. It was stressed to be accurate with the chemicals because that could change the results. So when it was time to buy stuff for my kitchen, I chose Pyrex because I had used it in class. Guess the chemistry class didn’t mislead me when purchasing liquid measuring cups. 😁

[Kejame]

I have the Oxo one and as with all their products it's a total winner. The top down measurement is super handy.

[HardwareLust]

Excellent timing. I was just looking at my old beat-up Pyrex measuring cups and thinking about replacing them.

[BenedictMHolland]

Who else looked at the Pyrex and said, yep, that one.

[aprilrich]

I’ve had my 4pc set of Pyrex measures since the late 80’s. I’ve tried others, but ALWAYS go back to them. 8 cup, 4 cup, 2 cup & 1 cup. Best EVER.

[lisawilson]

I love that Oxo measuring cup! Have had mine for years and use it every single day.

[dianejackson]

I still have all my Pyrex messing cups, mixing bowls, and baking dishes. They're definitely keepers!!

[barbarakuehl]

Yea!!!
The two I have are both the Pyrex glass measuring cup.
One in the 1 cup and another in a 4 cup.
I love them.
Plus they're heat tempered and I use them for everything!!!
