Excellent quality February 22, 2007

I already have a two sets of these glasses--the general red and white--and am about to order another set of red wine glasses. These glasses are excellent quality, well-balanced, and thin-rimmed. Suitable both for everyday and for setting the table for guests. Riedel quality without the cost and confusion of the glass-for-every-variety line.

Glasses are Great, Shipping not so Great! January 16, 2007

Ridel makes a fine and affordable product. In the 5 or so years I have been an Amazon customer I have never had any problems with Amazon ordering, until ordering this product. This item was a Christmas gift that took three weeks to arrive. I belive the problem was the shipper, the US post office. I have always recived fast and competent service from items delivered by the private carriers, UPS etc. The post office took too long and the condition they treated my package was horrible. They left it on the sidewalk for anyone to take it or break it. I urge Amazon to specify which carrier they will utilize when a customer is selecting shipping specifications, especially in sending crystal steamware!

Very nice wine glasses! January 8, 2007
These wine glasses are great! I've bought Riedel wine glasses in the past and have always been very satisfied with them.

Excellent everyday wine glasses November 23, 2006

I attended an expensive Bordeaux tasting, and the host (a well known, high-end wine retailer) served the wines in this glass. This told me a couple of things: 1. they were very good glasses that even the discerning oenophiles at the tasting would appreciate. 2. they were reasonably priced (to have dozens of them and clearly not care too much if one was accidentally broken). I've bought several sets and only had one broken when a guest dropped it on cement. Although they say dishwasher safe, I still wash them by hand. Although one reviewer complained that they were "chunky", I personally love that they are not the tall, tipsy type of wine glass - those may be great for special occasions, but not for everyday use with a toddler running around the house. I highly recommend these glasses!

sturdy basics November 18, 2006

if you're like me, and suddenly need glassware, this is a great choice.

let's say i got a little sauced at a bar with friends, was feeling a bit grand, and decided to invite twelve growling, tattooed, punk hooligans who'd never touched a decent stem over to my house for a somewhat formal dinner. obviously a problematic situation.

would i want something that wouldn't send me into a fit once someone decided to hurl one on the floor as an proclamation? absolutely. would i want to make sure that my smelly, ill-mannered punker friends had a good glass of wine in their calloused paws, and are treated as royalty at least once in their lives? without a doubt.

this is a good, hearty line of glasses for those with both price and quality in mind. rock on.
