Amazon.com Review
Blessed with large, easy-to-read markings, the five measuring spoons in this set make any cook's work easier. They're permanently secured by a solid ring, are sturdily made of thick, black plastic, and are dishwasher-safe. The spoons accurately measure 1/4-teaspoon, 1/2-teaspoon, 1-teaspoon, 1/2-tablespoon, and 1-tablespoon amounts. Their handles are slightly curved, making it easier to obtain level measurements in the proper wrist position. KitchenAid says the first year of the spoons' lifetime warranty against defects is hassle-free; the company will ship a replacement at no cost and without question if a defect is detected. --Fred Brack

Quality design
There are three things that set these spoons apart from the competition. The most important is the handle design. The curved handle acts as a support so that the spoons rest level on their own. If you have ever measured out a liquid ingredient before you needed it, then you know the issue with trying to put the spoon on the countertop; the spoon tips to one side and the liquid spills. I usually end up trying to wrinkle a piece of paper towel for just the right height to support the handle, and then hope I don't accidentally bump it. In the KitchenAid spoon's design, the curved handle is an elegant solution to this problem, and I think it really represents their "for the way it's made" slogan. The second bonus to the design is the smooth connection between the handle and the cup. This is great for leveling powdered ingredients. In competing designs I've used, the powder gets stuck in the nooks and crannies, and it's a nuisance to remove. With ingredients like garlic powder, small measurement errors make a big difference. The last nicety in this set is the grouping ring. I've used designs where you can only remove the spoons from one side, and it's annoying to remove all the spoons just to get to the last one! KitchenAid has a simple cut in the ring to remove spoons, which allows you to remove them in either direction, as well as getting to the spoons in the middle of the stack. Also, the ring is oval shaped so that if you hang the spoons, they won't accidentally slip through the ring's opening. For something as simple as measuring spoons, this set is a great piece of work.

Perfect Set of Spoons
I LOVE KitchenAid Cook's Tools and Gadgets. I especially love these spoons and the cups that they make that match them. It stead of being flat on the bottom they are rounded. This makes it easier to get all your ingredients out of the measuring spoon or cup and into your recipe.
I personally am collecting all of the KitchenAid Cook's Tools and Gadgets for my Hope Chest (so when I get married I will have things that withstand time :)

Spoons are too wide
I liked the look of these measuring spoons, but I've hardly used them. The spoons are so wide, even the smallest measure cannot fit into any of my spice jars. Definitely impractible.
