Nice buy; great for junky kitchen drawers
Yes, I have too much stuff in my kitchen drawer. I wanted these because they were metal, colorful, attractive, and most important, they magnetically fit together. I can reach in that drawer and get out all of them at once without fishing in the drawer for the different sizes. I do have a set of plastic measuring teaspoons on a plastic ring, but I have to remove them from the ring to use them or they all get dirty and after washing them, they have to get put back together again. They mentioned that the elongated (oval) ends are for great use for reading into small spice bottles; the round spoon ends are for liquids. So cleverly made, makes me feel clever that I bought them.

Best Design!
I love the fact that these are magnetic and you don't have to fuss with a ring to keep them all together. I was particular on my search wanting a half tablespoon and an 1/8 teaspoon included in the grouping. I eventually stumbled onto these magnetic measuring spoons. They are great! I love the spoon options on both sides. It's great for smaller mouthed spices or if you are measuring two different things and don't want to double dip in the other container. When they first arrived I was a little surprised that they weren't a glossy finish but that's just what I'm used to and completely irrelevant to it's function. I highly recommend this set!

Nice but not perfect
Was very excited to receive this magnetic nesting set of measuring spoons. Seem to be nice quality. My only concern is that the measurement markings look as though they will wear off over time. This would be very disappointing as this is not an inexpensive set. The Tbsp is already wearing off a bit and I’ve only used a handful of times. I wish they would have engraved the measurements onto the spoons to prevent this issue. Overall a nice product, we shall see how they fare over time.

The spoons are not accurate
So let me start out by saying, I like these spoons for the convenience of the fact that they are color coated which makes them easy to find when stuffed in a random drawer full of other things, the fact that they stick together, have a flat bottom so they won't roll over (as seen in one of my photos) and because you get two spoons in one. However, I can't give these more than one start because they simply are not accurate at all.Volumetric measurements do not equal mass, however it is a standard that 1 Tbsp of water equals 15ml of water. It is even printed on the Tablespoon in this set. Matter of fact, each spoon in this set has its representative weight in water printed on them, as seen in the photo of the tablespoon. However, I've tested each spoon on a food scale, and the spoons are not accurate. I have three photos showing the difference. The first shows the weight of water in the round spoon. The second shows the weight of water in the oval spoon and the third shows the weight of water in an altogether different tablespoon that is the correct volume. The oval Tablespoon from this set is 30% smaller in volume than it should be. That is a big difference! You can see that the accurate spoon had to be propped up with a paper towel to get it to balance, which is a huge + for measuring spoons being reviewed. I've tested this with each of these measuring spoons in this set, and every one of them is not the correct volume. Additionally, almost every spoon's volume also differs between the round and oval spoons. The discrepancy of each spoon becomes smaller as each smaller spoon is tested. As convenient as these spoons are, they are simply not made correctly. It took me a while to figure this out as I've had these spoons for a while, but it is certainly starting to explain some baking issues I've had over time, where accuracy really matters. This detail is probably less important if you're cooking with roughly eyeballed amounts of spices, etc, but I'm certainly no longer using these spoons when I need to be sure my measurements are accurate. Which really, thats why I now use a food scale for everything.Additionally, over time the plastic magnets on each of the spoons has warped a bit due to being washed in the dishwasher, so they don't really stick well together any more. If you have these, I would say to wash them on the top rack of the dishwasher or hand wash them only.Anyway, I hope this review helps someone.

Inaccurate Measurements
I have set of measuring spoons almost identical to these ones and I wanted another set. When I got them I noticed that the spoons were much shallower than the ones I have, despite being otherwise the same size. I checked the measurements against two other types of measuring spoons, and this set was actually only about 2/3 of the indicated measurement. Completely useless.

Where have these been all life
When cooking, certain measures get used all the time so I am so happy that these have two ends, which is "doubling" what you get as spoons. The oval end makes it easy to actually get the spoon into whatever you're measuring. I like that they're magnetic so they keep together. They also come in half Tbsp and one eighth tsp, which I have never seen before in my other measuring spoons. These are now my go to spoons.

Nice little set
Needed a new set. They servd the purpose. I like that they nest. They are bigger than I expected and they definitely don't stick to my refrigerator. Seem very sturdy. Do like there are two types of each, long and the standard round.

Magnets and steel?
Spoons are steel so the magnets attach to any part of the spoons, not just the other magnets. If the spoons were made of plastic, they would be much easier to use.
