These glasses are terrific. The mouth feel matches Reidel's stemmed glasses, but they're far steadier and sturdier. These have become our go-to glasses for our nightly wine enjoyment.

GREAT Glasses! No more spills!
By Tobin's friendVerified Purchaser from San Diego on 12/27/2007
Pros:
Attractive Design, Comfortable to Hold, Thick Glass
Best Uses:
Formal Dining, Informal Dining
Describe Yourself:
Bargain Hunter, Connoisseur, Stylish
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

These glasses are perfect for a casual evening at home, at the holiday table, or entertaining. They are just heavy enough so you know you have quality in your hand, but also elegant enough to serve at any occasion. The best thing about them is my spill and breakage rate has drastically declined since buying these glasses. Seldom will I use long stemmed glasses again!

Great glass to enjoy that wine in! It's attractive, yet functional -- and you can tell you're drinking out of something special. They feel nice in your hand and have a nice feel on your mouth while sipping wine. Can be for everyday use or can be bumped up a little if you have that special someone over and dress up the table a little! LOVE 'EM! I definitely want to get more of these!

 
Lovely to Hold, Likeable to Use
By SJCSmithVerified Purchaser from San Juan Capistrano CA on 11/23/2007
Pros:
Attractive Design, Comfortable to Hold
Cons:
Difficult to Clean
Best Uses:
Every Day
Describe Yourself:
Frequent Entertainer
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

We were looking at the stemless models, but thought these with the short stem looked better, and they are! They feel great in your hand, the color of the wine reflected in the base is lovely, and it is nice to have something to hold while swirling. The only drawback is, on the cabernets, it is hard to get your hand inside to wipe the glass clean after washing.
