The Federal Trade Commission has taken action against Instant Brands, manufacturer of Pyrex-brand kitchen and home products, for falsely claiming that all its popular glass measuring cups were made in the United States during a time some measuring cups were imported from China. The FTC's proposed order against Instant Brands would stop the company from making deceptive claims about products being "Made in USA" and require them to pay a monetary judgment.

The Federal Trade Commission is sending more than $88,000 in refunds to consumers who bought Chinese-made measuring cups marketed as "Made in USA" by Instant Brands, the maker of Pyrex-brand kitchen and home products.
