Stainless Steel Measuring Cup with Lid 2L 70 OZ

Love this sturdy 2L, lidded pitcher. It's a great substitute for plastics, glass and enamelware. I use it to allow hot tea/liquids to cool to room temp before I transfer them to an insulated, stainless pitcher with ice for outdoor use or for keeping in the fridge. I'm getting away from using plastics with hot liquids/foods. Borosilicate glass is light weight & easy to use, but it's a major bother when it breaks. Enamelware has limited use in the home, I think, though I did consider a large coffee boiler instead of stainless. I think food grade stainless is the way to go, but there are no steel carafes to be found anywhere, and other pitchers lack lids to keep bugs out. This the largest I could find, on or outside of Amazon. There are a lot of smaller, milk-frothing pitchers out there. This has liter measurement markings in the inside, a shaped pour lip, and I lid that simply rests on top. The lid does not seal in any way. This is perfect for my use. Great pitcher!

Appears very well made, good quality, solid, and heavier than expected. Nice pouring spout. The lid is loose, which is okay for my purposes. I'm looking forward to being able to use it for many years. I plan to use it mostly for cold water, but I like that it can also be used on the stove. I haven't yet tested it with heat to see if the finish changes. I'm hoping that the stainless steel remains intact (unlike some other "304" stainless steel products from other manufacturers),

This is the one kitchen item I have always needed & never realized it. I am thrilled to have this available to me whenever I need to refill my water tea kettle. Because the measurements are available on the inside, there’s no guessing. I use it daily, multiple times daily & find myself grateful that it’s right there & available, as needed. B/c of its handle, it’s hung away, off the counter & easily available. Highly recommend.

We're going to be living in an RV for awhile, I hate using plastic for everything, and now glass won't be the best option for travel. This works. Biggest issue is just that the lid just sits on top. It is not really held in place at all. There is no seal. If you pour, you need to make sure to hold the lid on. My husband is the one who uses it most and he said it was a pain and took some getting used to. We considered returning it, but there doesn't appear to be any better options. I saw a hinged version, but that had worse reviews. Oh well, this does the job. I only took off one star because I have a feeling our use case is different and this is typically used for measuring and less so as a pitcher. Still would be nice if there was some sort of rubber seal or something holding the lid on.

Leaks all over

We get our drinking water via a filtered water outlet that's in the door of our refrigerator. It's cold when it comes out of there, but we prefer to drink the water at room temperature. We used to dispense the water into a plastic pitcher, but recently we've become concerned about microplastics. This stainless-steel pitcher is a great replacement. It looks nice, it has a lid that is a separate piece (not hinged) and it fits well into the space around the fridge's dispenser. It holds a little over half a gallon, which is just about the maximum we'd want to lift with one hand. We haven't used it as a measuring cup yet, but it would serve that purpose well.

I am glad I found this stainless steel measuring jug. I use it to fill my electric hot water dispenser. Glad it is large enough to cut down on my refilling trips. I was looking for a stainless steel cup to substitute over my plastic cup I was using, with all the scare lately about large consumption of plastic in our water. I wanted a lid to keep the cup dust free when not in use. I wanted a cup large enough for my hand to stick in when washing. This cup checked all of the above. The bonus for me, is using it as a measuring cup, water jug at the dinner table, watering the plants, and having the ability to heat up on the stove if needed. Definitely the lid is not tight, but realistically this is a measuring cup, not a pot. Overall, it is a multi functional item and destined to last a lifetime.

I use this to steep my tea which I use to make iced tea. Perfect!
