These could be used for wet or dry measuring and prep and storage. Even the small cup can be used as a condiment cup. Love that they nest and that the largest cup has a rubber bottom to prevent sliding. The measurements inside each cup are easy to read. It would have been nice if some of the cups had several markings. For instance the 1 cup could have had an additional line letting you know where 3/4 cup is. The material is quality and holds up well in the dishwasher. The large sizes and variety of sizes allowing for food prep storage is a must have!
