 Beautiful, but not as sturdy as they seem December 24, 2008

I was very happy with these glasses when I first got them. They're beautiful, and they seem to be sturdy. But it didn't take long before they started breaking, one by one, from things as simple as being knocked over on the table. Within six months, we didn't have a single one of the tall glasses left.
I know my family is accident prone, but most glasses should have withstood some of these knocks. So I took a closer look. If you run your finger along the lip of these glasses, you'll notice the top is thicker than the glass of the body. In other words, the glasses are actually quite thin and delicate. Their sturdiness is just an illusion.
Still, these are nice glasses for the price. Just don't expect them to be sturdy, because they most certainly are not that.
Very nice but deceptive photo. December 4, 2008

This is a very nice set. I like the extra heavy, rounded flat base and appearance.
The photo may be misleading due to the background. I originally thought these had a smoke tint to them although the product description doesn't state that. So, it turns out they are indeed clear.
The reason for 4 stars and not 5, I have one glass that is wobbly while all the others seem to be flush and stable on a flat surface.
 Very happy with these glasses October 26, 2008

I love these glasses!! My boyfriend recently complained about all of the mismatched glasses in our cupboards and our oversized dish set taking up too much room and how he'd like to just 'throw 'em all out' and start over, so of course - I took that as my invitation to do just that!
I must admit that although there are many positive reviews for this item, the one reviewer who wrote that these glasses looked cheap and were of poor quality did ride in the back of my mind as I anxiously awaited my order. I think I nearly tripped over myself rushing to get this package indoors to rip through the box. I was a little disappointed when I saw the photos on the box (they don't do the glasses any justice), but the moment I pulled the first glass out of the box I knew I had done good!! Beautifully shaped, no defects in the glass and a nice weight that make these glasses feel more expensive than they are. Even the pictures online do little justice to these glasses. The base looks a little frosted in the online photos, but that's just because of the white backdrop. Nothing but smooth, clear, glass. (The boyfriend loves them too).
To the reviewer who wrote that these glasses look cheap and are of poor quality, I can only assume that you must have purchased glasses that were of similar style to these, but not the actual ones advertised here. These are quality glasses.

These glasses are exactly what I wanted. I love them. They are solid. I ordered two sets, and they both arrived quickly and intact. I showed them to my sister to get her opinion, and she said that they are beautiful. I like it that they are dishwasher safe. They go with anything from everyday dishes to fine china, and they match my silverware. They're stylish, elegant, substantial, and very low priced.
Great glasses! August 14, 2008

I bought these for my office and like them so much, I am buying a set for home. I love the heaviness and the design. They are less than 25% of the cost of the ones I bought at Williams and Sonoma and definitely just as nice.
