This measuring spoon caught my eye - more expensive than other measuring spoons, but still cheap, and it looks to be quite convenient and take up less space in the drawer. Hopefully.
Currently about $5 off for a handy saving.

I prefer individual spoons so I can measure multiple different things without washing it in-between.
Let's say I want 1t butter and 1T honey… it'd be easier to do that with different measuring spoons.
Yeah that's what kills it for me too.
Recipe has 5-6 things that need measuring and with this you're spending half your time rinsing and drying off.
I have two sets of spoons for powders and liquids. This would work if you're measuring the same type of ingredient (and don't care about mixing residue).
For infrequent users like me I like the fact it is one thing and will store neatly vs loose or linked by a key ring a variety of items that are going to tangle up or get partially lost in 'the third drawer'.
I don't know the brand of mine, but they are attached to a pivot point rather than a loose keyring. Kind of like a swiss army knife or an orbitkey.
@puffinfresh: Kinda makes it hard to use 2 measures at one then? .. not impossible :P .. not sure why I am in an argumentative mood today.
I try and pour into the spoon when I can but I quite like this spoon because it's got some extra measurements you sometimes don't get.
It's nifty, and now it's thrifty at only ten fifty.
That was shifty…
The minimalist in me loves this but the bargain hunter in me is saying it's $10.46 for a plastic spoon.
but it can replace, like, 3 plastic spoons
that's $3.48 per spoon
3 spoons?
1T, 1/2T, 1t, 1/2t, 1/4t… that's 3.25 spoons!
Or you could buy only one 1/4t spoon and use it for all measurements.
@spaceflight: The true OzBargain way. It also saves you money on measuring cups of you're patient enough.

12-speed spoon is pretty impressive!
I like how there is a price range of $1.61 to $3.10 .. but only one option to choose and you select that and it is $3.10.
I like how they've blurred the Joseph Joseph branding in the photos!
Thanks @MechanicalCanine. Instead of paying $10.46 for one spoon I paid $6.60 for 2 spoons!
silly me not checking ali expresse!
Measuring ingredients is for white people.
Need to stop buying Joseph Joseph stuff. It’s not even particularly good quality - they’ve just nailed the ‘I didn’t know I needed that’ purchases
Agree. This product is absolute rubbish! Why made products like this and pollute the environment even more!
It actually just went UP in price to $10.46
It was $8.97 a few days ago, and at various times in the past.
"Usually dispatched within 1 to 2 months"
That's not very accurate for a measuring spoon.
These spoons don't measure time
Then… no deal.
This is about as useful as a cock flavoured lollipop.
$10.46…
Fools and their money..
Here's a 0.01g * 500 scale for $8.95 https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/124319808879?hash=item1cf209bd6f…
Weight vs. volume? Do you cook?…
I often cook things that are more than 500g though
I only mentioned the 500g scale as it is closest to the small measurement of the OP's item.
For ingredients above 500g I have a 5kg kitchen scale ($9 from Kmart).
Weight is more accurate than volume. Do you cook?
I cook and measure all ingredients by grams. Grams are repeatable and can easily be measured in any vessel
Volumetric measurements are something I'll leave for Americans.
This is in US tablespoons
These suck. Pain to clean as crap gets under the sliding plastic bit. Also, you often need to clean whilst cooking as you might need have more than one thing that needs measuring.
This looks very nifty. Is it really handy though?
