Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

These are very fine glasses that rival the Riedel in quality but are tougher and stand up better for more day to day use. The design of the Pinot Noir stems are wonderful. The Bordeau stems are not as pleaseng in the shape of the bowl, but drink well.

Much better than expected

We didn't know what to expect when the glass was being considered break resistant. We were worried about thick glass and instead, these are beautiful,thin, lovely glass and really hold up. I am a clutz by nature and still have them all after several months. Excellent buy and I would recommend them to my fellow clutzes!

Seem to be holding up just fine

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

We use the wine glasses daily. They are holding up well thus far. The wine glasses, by all appearances, are very delicate. For that reason I have not as yet placed them in the dishwasher, prefering to wash by hand. But, we are enjoying them.

they're big

By birdie

from brooklyn, NY on 3/25/2008

Pros:

Attractive Design

Cons:

Ie too big for rack, Only two glasses will fit, On the undercounter, Shelf rack at a time

only two glasses will fit on the undershelf wine rack at a time as the glasses are too big for the unit--if you put more than two glasses, they will slide off. I bought the glasses specifically for that purpose and unfortunately, only six will fit on the rack.

Disappointed

By Barb

from Vienna, VA on 2/14/2008

Pros:

Attractive Design, Comfortable to Hold

Cons:

Stem broke rather easily

Best Uses:

Formal Dining, Informal Dining, Special Occasion

Describe Yourself:

Bargain Hunter, Practical, Stylish

Bottom Line:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

While I like the way the glasses look & feel, I bought them because of the claim of most break resistant glassware. Mind you prior to this purchase, I was still using the stemware purchased >30 years ago after I married. I washed a stem and placed it on the wine glass drain portion of my dish drain. The drain was gently bumped, the glass fell to the counter top (laminate, not granite & not very far to fall). The bottom of the stem broke off.

Durable, yet sophisticated

These glasses transition from having a glass of wine while engaged in meal preparation, to the dining room, or better yet, sharing a vintage red with friends. A true 'all occasion' glass.
