These are good basic glasses. The problem is Bormioli Rocco claims they are tempered. They are not (or at least not properly). Tempered glass is much stronger than normal glass. These break easily (we ordered two sets, a medium and a maxi -- one had a glass broken out-of-the-box, and the other had one broken less than a week after we opened them). Tempered glass also breaks into small, safe pieces, and shatters as a whole. These break into large pieces (I can't tell if they're any less dull, but one of my housemates claims they are), and they do not shatter as a whole (the entire base was left on the one we broke).

I love these. They arrived quickly and in perfect condition. If you want a cool European tumbler this is it!

Great wine glasses. I fell in love with these in the Basque country of Spain and have been carrying them back with me and giving them a gifts for years. Then, they became available on Amazon! Just order three cases -- two cases (one case of the mini glasses that work perfectly for cordials or jello and two of the tumbler-sized glasses that are ubiquitous in Northern Spain and used for wine). I love them.

I'm not big into fancy stemware and don't really have room to store a lot of it. These wine glasses are perfect - comfortable to hold, very attractive and half-filled they are pretty much a standard restaurant pour, which is perfect for me as I don't like "full" wine glasses. They arrived from Amazon Prime via Ontrac in perfect condition, two days earlier than promised. I can stack 3 of them in my cabinet, so they take up very little space. Ran them through the dishwasher and they came out sparkling. They're very nice and inexpensive glasses. Couldn't be happier.
