Product Description
Amazon.com Review
The 16 glasses in this set are welcome both around the bar and at the table. The set comprises eight 16-ounce coolers and eight 10-1/2-ounce Old Fashioned glasses. The coolers are ideal for serving tall, cool drinks like collinses, whiskey and sodas, and screwdrivers, as well as iced tea, lemonade, and water. The Old Fashioned glasses are ideal for serving liquor straight or on the rocks as well as breakfast juice. With square-patterned sides, the glasses coordinate with both contemporary and traditional dinnerware patterns. They're made of dishwasher-safe, lead-free crystal--thick and durable with exceptional clarity. Their heavy bottoms ensure stability and provide a feeling of luxury in the hand. --Fred Brack

Love these glasses,
By Nicole Bascle (Prescott Valley, AZ United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Anchor Hocking Manchester 16-Piece Crystal Beverage Set (Kitchen)
I love these Anchor Hocking glasses. My parents have had a set of this pattern for years. When I moved into my own place in college and was tired of the free plastic cups I had I went to the store and found these glasses. I have 8 big glasses in a blue color, but I'm wanting matching in a smaller glass and can't seem to find the same color. Anyway, I really like that the squares help you hold the glass easier. Also, these glasses are very stable, don't tip easily. Plus, they are bottom heavy but not too bottom heavy, that way they don't slip out of your hands as easily. I have broken many other glasses cause they were too bottom heavy, but I have never broken one of these.

Excellent glassware for the price,
This review is from: Anchor Hocking Manchester 16-Piece Crystal Beverage Set (Kitchen)
I have had this set for about 7 years now and it has been durable. some of the reviews and the product description here mention that it is supposed to be crystal, but if you go to Anchor Hockings site they say it is cut glass. I bought the original 16 piece set and have since added to it. bought about 30 pieces in singles including more glasses, water glasses, and juice glasses. I love the weight and the structure. they are solid and I have dropped them a lot of times and have yet to break one. If you have kids but hate plastic glasses then this would be an excellent set to get.

Great everyday glasses!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Anchor Hocking Manchester 16-Piece Crystal Beverage Set (Kitchen)
NO, they're not really crystal, so don't let the description fool you. However, these are nice, hefty glasses that have room for a whole can of soda and lots of ice. We actually bought ours by the piece at a local kitchenwares store, which also carried our pale blue glasses and a glass-green version in addition to the clear ones. The inscribed grid lines give you a bit more grip (at least, it does for my smaller hands). The thing I like the most about these glasses is that the glass is a uniform thickness from top to the base (unlike most everyday glass sets that have a substantial lip on them but the rest of the glass is thin) and the bottom has a nice, solid chunk of glass at least 3/4" thick. They're also perfectly cylindrical all the way down, which makes for stable glasses that can't be tipped over as easily as some glasses can. They can take a substantial "thump" onto a table as well. We've only lost two of our original twelve in the past three years, both victims to impatient people wanting to fill a hot, just-from-the-dishwasher glass with a cold beverage. My advice is: if you're looking for a glass set that will last and won't make you feel you have to handle it like it's your grandmother's fine crystal, then invest in these! (NOTE: If you DO manage to crack these glasses, they don't shatter like most glasses. They'll give a loud "POP" and split neatly into larger pieces that can be easily cleaned. Don't remember having a problem w/ glass splinters with these.)
