I use these daily for cocoa powder for my coffee/hot chocolate and cinnamon sugar for toast and they work great. They fit well in the hand and are easy to grip. I like the weight of the glass, and the nonporous material prevents flavors from transferring if you use the jar for a different spice after. They also wash well in the dishwasher – I put the lids in the silverware basket. I like that there are three different settings – small holes, large holes, and pouring – so I can get exactly the amount of spice that I want each time. It's also easy to rotate the lid to get to the desired setting.
The only issue that I've run into is that you can't fill them more than 3/4 of the way, so there is room for the contents to move around so they can come out easily and not get stuck. Also, thick powders, like cornstarch, just don't come out that easily, even through the big pouring hole. So, these are strictly for spices that you intend to sprinkle, not measure with a measuring spoon.
Overall, these are a good size, attractive, durable, and easy to use.
