Mainstays 1/4C Plastic Mini Measuring Cup, Black/Transparent

Love these mini measures! Arthritis makes it difficult for me to measure liquids with measuring spoons. These mini measuring cups make it simpler %26 neater - due to fewer spills! Grateful to whoever invented these. Easy to wash in dishwasher or by hand. Eady to read measurements inside %26 outside the cups.

The MAINSTAYS 1/4-cup measuring cups are both designed and manufactured very thoughtfully. They have a non-slip bottom and handle. The pour spout is more than adequate with a softer angle along the front pouring spout. There are both tablespoons/cups and milliliter marked scales on the side of the cups. What I really APPRECIATE is that along the inside of the slanted spout are markings of both tablespoon and milliliters. The pour spout area is black and the measuring scale is printed in white, providing very good visual contrast. That feature makes reading and pouring the correct amount into the beaker very easy. As you pour, you see it fill. You do not have to look at the side of the cup to check and recheck the meniscus at eye level. This is wonderful! At times I purchase 2-liter bottles of EVO Oil. I can both hand to hold the bottle and still pour accurate amounts quickly. The clear acrylic material is a good choice and is usually durable. It has a modern appearance too. The pricing is $1.99. I purchased several (kept an extra for my own) and gave to friends as I thought they were of great quality. This is a good small stocking stuffer too. OXO makes a similar small measuring cup. It is probably better in quality (maybe, maybe not) but not better in usefulness. Pricing of the OXO is $8-$10 ( even more with some sellers) when I looked on-line. This is a wonderful surprise purchase. It makes my life easier. I LOVE IT !!!! Thank you, Walmart, for an item so thoughtfully designed and priced well. Your baking customers will love you for providing them a cost break.
