Because it is wide, you can't fill it accurately, and the liquid spills to the right and left

I like using glass for measuring liquids and what I especially like is that in addition to metric volumes, it also has measurement for cups, often used in older recipes that I frequently bake and cook with. That was important to me to have both metric and cups.

I have had it for 6 months now and I am very satisfied. It is sturdy, I have put it in both a large oven and a microwave without any issues, and it has all the measurement units that one can use in recipes found on the internet. American measuring cups/tbsp/oz and the classic mls. I think I will also get the smaller one (500ml or 250ml) because this one is somewhat big and not always easy to use (it is heavy on its own).
