Let me start off by saying that I’ve always just had flimsy plastic sets of measuring spoons. You know the kind. You use them for about a month before the measurements are worn off and you can’t tell whether you’re using the 1/2 teaspoon or the 1/4. You think you know but since you lost one of the spoons off the little plastic ring you’re not *quite* sure.
After the measurements completely wore off my last set and I lost one or two of them ( they’re like socks in the washing machine. Who knows where that lost one went… ) I decided I’d get a really nice set.
I searched for a while reading reviews and comparing prices on all the different stainless steel spoon sets and finally settled on the MIU 5-Piece Stainless Steel Measuing Spoon set. I’ve been using the spoons for a few months now. They are *really* nice. The first thing I noticed is that the spoons are heavy and very high quality. They are not made of aluminum like the better spoon sets you find in store. These are solid stainless steel.
The measurements are not enameled on or little stickers. The numbers are engraved right into the metal.
The heads of the spoons are polished while the rest of the spoon surfaces are brushed.
The set has 1 tbsp, 1 tsp, 1/2 tsp, 1/4 tsp, and though not as often used, a 1/8 tsp spoon. The heads of the spoons are narrow so they can get right into small spice jars and containers.
The spoons are on a really strong metal ring like the big spring rings that hold your keys.
My spoons have been through many dishwashings and hand washing and they look brand new. I haven’t even noticed a scratch on them. These spoons should really last a lifetime.
