I like that these are a good size and that they are rectangular to more easily fit into most spice jars. I like that these are magnetized; it makes for convenient and space-saving storage. These are not flimsy, the metal does not bend or warp thus far, though I haven't used them for anything heavy or dense. The plastic magnetized sections have the company name on them on the front of the spoons, a feature about which I was less than enthusiastic at first. But this feature also helps correctly orient the measuring spoons more quickly when reassembling for storage. I would suggest to the manufacturer to consider putting the company name on the back of the magnetized portion instead if possible. I also agree with the reviewer who mentioned that while the engraved metal measurement indicator is great because there are no worries about it fading or washing off, for "seasoned" people who are at the point in their lives to need reading glasses, the size of the font could be a great deal bigger for easier identification. Also, as another reviewer mentioned, I guess the rounded shape of some other sets is better for liquids. I'd love another set like this in a rounded shape as well because I have an addiction to kitchen items.Thus far these spoons have not rusted, but I have only hand-washed them. They do not seem inclined to do so, however, which is a credit to the company for not using inferior materials. I bought two different sets at the same time to replace broken plastic sets, and thus far I have liked both. This particular set is space-saving and has all the essentials with a little lagniappe thrown in for good measure. The design would appeal to many who are not making recipes with a great number of ingredients or spices which would require washing or wiping in between uses. I like this set, but for my needs I also like having both sets to save on the washing in between ingredients.I've had these for a few months now and thus far I have only seen small water spots on these if you don't dry them quickly and that's about the worst thing I could say. A 5-star great buy overall even with comments about suggested improvements to design and would make a nice gift for a housewarming or first place away from home.
