If you are a baker, please read this
The spoons are horribly inaccurate. My favorite cookies have been consistently bad since getting these so I was sceptical about the accuracy of them. I decided to test them against themselves.
I measured three level teaspoons and put them into the tablespoon, and it only filled it up about 90% of the way. I tried measuring 4 1/4 teaspoons into the teaspoon but only got three in before it was spilling over the edges. Same with 2 of the 1/2 teaspoons. Everything else mostly lined up (for what you can expect from a cheaply made set) but the teaspoon was consistently under what it should have been.
This means that the teaspoon measurement, by far the most important spoon in a bakers arsenal, is very, very off. The cups are pretty off too (measured leveled white sugar using my kitchen scale). From what I could tell, they were off by almost 10%.
Please go buy something that actually does what it is meant to.
The quality is nice and I like the silicone grips, but I didn't buy these for those things and neither should you.
