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.

Just came back to repurchase a new set as a gift and was disappointed to see that the product is not currently available. I’m really surprised to see all of the negative reviews regarding the durability of these glasses. None of my glasses ever broke in the dishwasher at my apartment, when in transit from my apartment to my house by movers, as a result of being hand washed in the sink (current house doesn’t have a dishwasher) or having guests or even young children handle them.
That said, I did lose a handful of these glasses over a period of a few months due to improper handling from a new roommate of mine. One broke because he left it balancing precariously on its side on top of a dish rack that he had overloaded, which later fell to the ground when he went to put his dishes away. Two others broke simply because he literally just ‘dropped’ them into the kitchen sink while walking by. Seriously. I actually witnessed him just casually ‘dropping’ one of my glasses, held out at arms length, into the sink!!! Of course I confronted him and according to him, he just wasn’t paying attention. Obvious, because the sound of the glass hitting the inside of my metal sink didn’t even phase him and had I not said something, he’d have just strolled right on out of the kitchen. Sometimes I wonder if that boy’s on something…) and another two broke because he had rested them in the sink on their side and then piled a TON of dirty pots, pans and dishes on top of them. I was the one who discovered those two glasses broken after I decided to clean up his mess rather then wait for him to get around to it. Neither glasses were ‘shattered’ but had large cracks running down the length of them and fell apart when I went to pick them up.
Of course, he denies being the catalyst for my glasses suddenly breaking however… since I’ve restricted his use of household beverage containers to the cleaned out mason jars and plastic tumblers that I keep as backup for large parties (with the threat that he would need to buy me a replacement set of glasses if just one more broke) – my Libbey glasses have miraculously stopped breaking again.
While I realize there’s the distinct possibility that something has changed with this product since I last purchased it, my own experience makes me question how many of these complaints stem from people like my housemate… He really, truly, sincerely does not believe that he’s at fault for any of the glasses breaking – even when he was witness to the glass breaking as a result of his own actions (such as the case of the glass that fell over when he was putting away his dishes). I really just don’t understand where he’s coming from… I went years with these glasses never breaking, even in the hands of my boyfriends young children. I for one hope that regardless of what the issue is today (defective product or defective customers) – they figure out the problem, fix it, and get this product made available again. These are great glasses and I was really hoping to gift them to a few close friends for the holidays.

Tal como se muestran en la foto, excelente tamaño, calidad y precio. El vidrio es grueso por lo tanto resistente. Lo que buscaba.

These come in two useful sizes. They look good and are very sturdy. Love the finger divots that make them easy to hold onto even when wet. Great glasses especially for the price.
Wallix –
Very nice and well made. Great weight, too. I was a little concerned about the small base but they are so heavy (but not too heavy) they are anchored nicely. All the glasses were perfect. No imperfections or cracks and a great price. Nice to buy from a USA company as well.
Manu Roldán –
Buena calidad y grosor
