My wife likes to prepare mixes, like pancake batter, in pyrex measuring bowls to minimize the number of measuring cups needed (just use the markers on the side). Previous bowls had markings that faded, then disappeared, after regular use. This one, with raised markings, should avoid that fate.Only nit to pick is that it'd be nice if the raised markings were colored - yes, they'd fade and disappear, but they'd be nice while they lasted...
