Ackers BORO3.3 Borosilicate Glass Measuring Cup, 500 ml (16 oz, 2 Cup)

Great Quality and Very Useful for DIY Projects I really like the Ackers BORO3.3 Glass Measuring Cups. The glass feels sturdy and durable, and I love that they are easy to clean and reuse. The measurements are clear and make it much easier to measure ingredients accurately. The pouring spout is also very helpful because it allows me to pour liquids without making a big mess. The different sizes are convenient, especially when working with both small and larger amounts. I’ve found these measuring cups especially useful for DIY projects like making candles, body butter, oils, and other homemade products. They make measuring, mixing, and pouring much easier. Overall, they feel like a good-quality set and are definitely worth having if you do a lot of cooking, baking, or DIY projects.

bought the Ackers High Borosilicate Glass Measuring Cup Set, and it has quickly become one of my favorite kitchen tools. The glass quality is excellent — clear, sturdy, and heat‑resistant. Because it’s made from high borosilicate glass, it handles hot liquids without cracking or fogging, which is a huge upgrade from the plastic cups I used before.The measurement markings are sharp and easy to read, and the V‑shaped spout pours cleanly with no drips. Each cup in the set (2 oz, 4 oz, and 8 oz) is lightweight but feels solid, and the nesting design makes storage simple.I especially appreciate how precise these cups are. Whether I’m measuring small amounts for baking or mixing drinks, the accuracy is spot‑on. They also clean up effortlessly — no staining, no lingering smells, and they’re dishwasher‑safe.If you want a reliable, well‑made set of measuring cups that look great and perform even better, this Ackers set is absolutely worth it. Highly recommended for anyone who cooks or bakes regularly.

I just received these measuring cups today, and I'm very pleased with them. The manufacturer's packaging was excellent, which is a good thing because the outside shipping box was totally smashed on the bottom side of one end. But the manufacturer's box protected them. I had a glass Pyrex one-cup measuring cup and broke it after many (40+??) years. I needed to replace it, and it looked like the two-cup Ackers one would take up no more space in my crowded cabinet than the one-cup Pyrex one, except for additional height, because there is no handle and the glass is thinner. The glass IS a LOT thinner than my very old Pyrex cup. Borosilicate glass is supposed to be strong, but I seriously doubt it would survive a fall even onto a vinyl floor, so do be careful with these!! If your shelf isn't very tall, the largest cup is just shy of 5 inches tall - 4 and 7/8 inches. The cups nest nicely, so three cups in the space of one. Nice! My shelf isn't quite tall enough, so I will have to lay the set on its side, or find a different place for them. The largest cup shows measurements up to the 2 cup mark - one side of the line shows every 1/4 up to 2 cups. The other side of that same line shows every 1/3 up to 2 cups. Another column shows ml markings up to 500 ml. A third column shows ounces up to 18 oz., in one-ounce increments. Yes, up to 18 oz., not just 16 oz. VERY useful measurements! The middle size cup is marked the same way, up to 1 cup, up to 250 ml, up to 8 oz. The smallest cup is marked the same way, up to 1/2 cup, up to 150 ml, up to 5 oz. Yes, 5 oz. (150 ml is more than 4 ounces, very slightly over 5 ounces.) These measuring cups will be very useful, if I can just be careful enough not to break one! I do recommend them, if no one using them is prone to dropping things on the floor!!! I hope this was helpful!!!

If you're a science nerd like me, you'll love these measuring cups. They are my absolute favorite! They look great, are perfectly accurate, and are made of borosilicate glass that allows them to be thin to the point of being delicate. But they're not delicate. Borosilicate glass is used in chemistry labs for its durability and thermal tolerance. Going from freezing cold to boiling hot is no problem for this kind of glass. Having three different sizes allows me to choose each one for specific applications. The different units of measure give me the ability to be precise, no matter the recipe!

My review is of the 60 milliliter/2 ounce pack of two; I purchased four packs. I have taken a photo to properly show the different angles of all the measurements possible. My main draw to this was for at home mixology. Many different recipes call for a variety of measurements and sizes, often in ¼ ounce increments. This is the only product I have seen that is the size of a large jigger (2 ounces) and provides measurements marked in ¼ ounce increments. The fact that it has milliliters marked in 5 milliliter increments as well is already beneficial in its own right, but to go beyond and also have teaspoons & tablespoons in addition to what is already provided is just incredibly thorough. The price is well worth the utility provided for the product, but I will comment that there is a degree of concern I have for the makeup in the glass itself. The other reviewers have commentated on it being a thin glass material, and I will concede that this is noticeable upon holding it. My recommendation would be to stay mindful of the surfaces you place them on and the force exerted. A real fear fragility is warranted, but at the low price that is being sold, I can see how this is still being sold for a profit while cutting massive costs on the manufacturing of it. I can't see how I could comfortably transport these when going to events with my bartending kit without making excessive accommodations in guaranteeing no damage to the beakers. Thus, these will stay an at-home tool, where most experimenting will happen anyways. The question of storage is also present, given their shape. Yes, the V-shaped spout is handy for pouring, and I enjoy that the beaker itself is flared at the top. However, this proves to be a little awkward in storage, since they do not easily stack. Additionally, as discussed earlier on the sturdiness of the item, the consideration has to be made on a more gentle surface below for them to not be stressed. A silicone mat will do just fine, but it's still something to be mindful of when storing. While you're at it, you should own a premium silicone bar mat for the counter when you use them, just to ensure no worries in handling. I have read mixed opinions on using it in the dishwasher; some people insist there are no problems whatsoever, while others say that it was broken or the markings faded. Given the mixed reception on this front, I cannot report whether or not it will be dishwasher safe, as I will stick to handwashing it. A small knock on the convenience factor, but honestly, this is such a small beaker. Handwashing is genuinely not a worry. Overall, for at home cocktail chicanery, I would say this is an excellent idea. My main feedback I would give is I would gladly pay double or triple the price just for a thoroughly more robust glass that had some real weight and firm defense in handling. The only more perfect way I could envision this product is if it was a stainless steel jigger with windows on it to indicate the level for all these markings. Although, as it is now, it'll do fine with careful handling at home.

Love these little measuring cups. Perfect for measuring coffee flavorings for lattes and frappes. Measurements are bold, accurate and readable. The spout gives a clean pour every time, unlike the larger glass measuring cups that splash and spill. Very impressed at these little guys! While they are thin and lightweight they are quite durable. Love when an item arrives and it’s exactly as it should be and even better than expected.

Compact design (no handle) frees up space in the cabinet. As a Chemical Engineer, I love how familiar it is and that it’s just like a 500 mL beaker used in a Chemistry lab. Maybe that’s just the nerd in me. Markings are still visible after many uses and haven't worn off. One caution: the glass is quite a bit thinner than most measuring cups so you can’t abuse it like most. And little kids may accidentally break it when tossing something in the dishwasher near it. But I’ve owned the thick ones built like a tank but the markings wear off. Not this beaker / measuring cup. Just like a beaker in the lab, the markings are rugged and hold on even in harsh environments.

I run a small batch of apothecary, and I loved the multi ability of measurement options with this particular set. I’ve looked at a lot of different sets of beakers the readability of the markings is very clear very easy. There’s multiple ways to read it milliliters ounces cups. I love that there’s so much diversity between the different containers. I love that they all nest within one another. It definitely saves space and it was a great value for the money and because they’re glass my essential oils rinse out, not leaving a smell behind. I’m pretty please. The price point on this was perfect.

Perfect for those precise measurements!
