“Excellent!
”
by marc
This item is just so simple, and it just WORKS! The fact that I love that retro sort of look is an added bonus, but the main thing is, it just does it job so well, and for, I feel, an excellent price. X

A note from the team: Note: The Supplier has stated that the cooks measure is designed for dry food only and not for use with liquid as it's not water-tight.
“Good, but rust too easily
”
by Ms Marshall
I have had 2 of these over the years and although I love the retro look of them and they are very handy to use, much easier than using scales, they rust soon after any prolonged contact with liquid - ie if they are left in a washing up bowl which tends to happen when baking. I echo the previous reviewer who suggested that they be made in plastic.

“Great - only one gripe...
”
by Sarah
This is a great tool in the kitchen, I love the fact that I no longer have to use the scales. The only problem I have found is that the bottom seams (the non-painted bit) are already starting to show rust. Not sure how much longer I will be able to use this before having to buy another. Would be a lot better if Lakeland could make something like this in plastic...

“Really useful
”
by Beth
This is great. I use it nearly everday and is so much quicker than getting out the weighing scales. (I don't use it for butter, as I tend to guess that straight out the wrapper/tub). It is lighter than I imagined and a bit 'tinny' but it is still in perfect condition.

“Rather groovy
”
by Mrs Appleton
I loved the look of this product, and was fed up with my normal scales. I was a bit surprised that it was made up of metal pieces, rather than seemless as I think flour, sugar etc may get stuck in there over time. It's a shame it can't measure butter, but I understand why. I have already thought about spending time working out common weights for butter in cups and making a list for future reference so I can chuck away my rubbishy old scales! Actually, that's quite sad isn't it ....

“Good product
”
by Becky
I have used it and I like it. It makes it easy to pour into bowls. Unfortunately you still need to use other scales for your butter!

“Classic Idea but finish a little rough and disappointing
”
by Margaret
It does work, but I have caught my finger along the seam or join a couple of times. Not quite at usual standard to be honest.
