These measuring cups are made out of high impact resistant ABS plastic, able to withstand the abuse most kitchens can dish out. The handy leveler helps you get an accurate measurement with ingredients such as powdered sugar and flour.

Blessed with easy-to-read markings, the four measuring cups in this set make any cook's work easier. They're held together by a removable leveler that makes it possible to quickly measure dry ingredients precisely and prevents the cups from scattering in a drawer. Made of thick plastic and dishwasher-safe, the cups measure 1/4 cup, 1/3 cup, 1/2 cup, and 1 cup. (The cups are also calibrated in milliliters.) Their handles are slightly curved, making it easier to obtain level measurements in the proper wrist position. KitchenAid says the first year of the set's lifetime warranty against defects is hassle-free, with a replacement shipped at no cost and without question if a defect is detected. --Fred Brack
