i love these measuring spoons. they are very well thought out and well designed. one precaution when washing them is to be careful because the stream of faucet water sent directly into the spoon will redirect at the person doing the dish washing, which is okay because it involves a learning curve, though it takes me awhile to learn so it may happen a few more times until i remember to wash them at an angle.
there is no comparison to the old pair of plastic measuring spoons in terms of either their usability or durability. the plastic pair were only ever rudimentary and very ineffective when actually trying to cook. the dual spoons for each measurement make it easy to re-use a spoon, such as getting a 1/4 tsp of paprika from the one side and 1/4 tsp of salt from the other side, without contaminating either bottle.
my favorite feature of the spoons is hanging them off the metal dishwashing rack after washing them, where they can be stuck to the side inside of lost in the silverware bin with the forks and other larger utensils. this is immensely practical.
the only aspect which i would change is to slightly off-balance the magnets* so that the spoons balance vertically off-center, this way when they hang vertically off the dish rack the water would fall out of the spoons rather than keep remaining drops inside to evaporate rather than immediately fall out. if that was fixed they would get 6 stars, though they certainly earn the 5 stars and would be great gifts for any cook.
*(else, a second set of small magnets offset from the main pair, which would allow the nested collection of the spoons together, as they are now, and then a second individual hanging option, slightly off-balance, to allow for draining of water when hung vertically on a metal dish rack.)

While this product will not change you life,the magnetized spoons stick together and stay in place in a drawer.The family has all given them a thumbs up.They are very well made. I would purchase them again.

I bought this set for my daughter as a gift. I didn’t realize how nice they really were until she showed me! You can fill the spoons and set it down on the counter without it falling over since the bottom’s are flat! How smart! Also they are seperated (not on a ring) so it is a easier access! A brillant design! Now I plan to order myself a set!

These spoons are the best measuring spoons I’ve ever owned. I bought them because I needed a 1/2 tablespoon measure for breadmaking. They are perfectly sturdy, and have tsp and ml markings. The two sides include rounded cups on one side and the more valuable oval cups on the other (for reaching into small containers). And they’re magnetized so they don’t migrate all over my drawer.

I love these. I like the smooth metal finish, and the magnet feature is a plus. the double-sided spoons are also a neat concept, but I don’t find myself switching very often.
