Measuring Cups
Measuring cups are somewhat a matter of taste. There are, however, some objective criteria to consider. First, the measurements should be etched so they won't wash off. Second, they should be substantial enough to not get bent. Third, they should be metal so as to not melt. Finally, they should look nice.

Luxury: Sur La Table Stainless Steel Measuring Cups
This set is perfect, and at $60 it should be. They are made of stainless steel, weighty enough to feel substantial and robust, have etched markings, and beautiful. Just look at them. They even include a milliliter measurement should the metric system ever catch on.
Essential: Spring Chef Stainless Steel Measuring Cups
Under $20, this set is an excellent value. Though lighter weight than the Luxury option, these cups are stainless steel, have etched measurements and milliliter markings, and have partial measurements stamped on their sides. Additionally, these measuring cups are one continuous piece of steel so the handles won't break off.
