The Bormioli Rocco Rock Bar collection is a boon for my kitchen, family and guests. I can store enough in my small cupboards to allow me to rinse and wait till the dishwasher is full to run, and still have enough for the next family meal or snack. For company I prefer not to use disposable products and this collection allows for enough glassware to be available for a crowd of guests! Thank you Bormioli and Amazon.

The 16.25 oz. glasses are perfect for the "big guys" with big hands. (I've sometimes wondered, watching guys reach for a glass of soda, if they feel they are living in a miniature world. Not with these glasses!) They are also perfect for smoothies, ice cream sodas, special sundaes.

The 12.5 oz. is perfect for that all purpose beverage with ice - water, soda. iced tea (yes, I know there are special glasses for that), or a big helping of juice.

The 9 oz. is the all-purpose glass for me. Not too much, not too little. I find I use this one most often. It is especially useful when you want to allow people to fill their glass, and ask for more; as opposed to fill a glass and not finish.

The 6.75 oz. juice glass is a standard in my household. Every youngster can get a good grip on this glass and enjoy a beverage.

The 2.5 oz. shot glass is, I thought, of little use to me, but I recently picked up a set on sale at a local store. Why? They are too cute. I recently used one for a granddaughter who wanted a drink of water at bedtime. It worked. I'll come up with some other uses --- how about filling with dip for small snack before bedtime?

Then there's the 13.25 oz. double old-fashioned glass. Have not purchased these yet. They feel like a shorter version of the 16.25 oz. glass; a good feel for those with bigger hands or perfect for a short cocktail. Envision it to be perfect for a Manhattan-on-the-rocks.

Bottom line is, for me, this line of glasses is so good that I spent all this time to talk about it.

Great looking glasses, got them on time, the strengh was put to the test when my daughter dropped it and it just bounced up.

This was a very good purchase. So much so that I sprang for a few different sizes. They do stack very nicely which is great for small cabinet space.

great set of glasses, size and shape are good and if you have a tile floor like me if you happen to drop one they shatter into little cubes versus pointy shards. Nice for safety as I have pets and the kids stop by too.

With prices going up, milk is now over $4 a gallon, I've taken to using these glasses to serve milk. These are the perfectly sized glasses for a glass of milk as there is a little room at the top to prevent accidental spillage.

We also use these glasses in the bathroom, no more disposable paper cups, to help cut costs on buying paper cups. I guess we've gone green too.

As for durability: We have the tall iced tea type glasses (16 to 17 oz. size) and the juice glasses (6 oz.) and all have stood daily use. These glasses are tossed in the dishwasher and not one has broken.

It's so nice to be able to purchase sturdy, thick walled glasses. In other words, these glasses are NOT like the thin walled glasses you'll find at the discount department store.

They are worth the few extra cents as you will be getting more mileage for your dollar.

Highly recommend.

These really are great glasses. We will be ordering the 12.5 oz next. Almost unbreakable, easy to hold, Stack perfectly into each other. 6= 10.5 Inches tall. You will be pleased.

These glasses are perfect! I am so happy with the quality, it is a good solid glass that I believe will last many years. The size of them are just right, not too big or too small. The detailing is very nice, but they are more beautiful in person!

I wanted some simple tumblers, which I could use for drinks both mixed and non-alcoholic. These have been terrific. They are very useful and even child-friendly. I have been very happy with these, especially considering how little I paid for them.

One of my concerns was that these 9 oz glasses would be a bit too big. Pouring 1-2 shots without rocks doesn't fill it up very high but it doesn't feel silly either. I'd say just slightly larger than a normal bar rocks glass.

As with everyone else, I also appreciate that they're stackable.

I wanted something that stacked well in my cabinet and could be put in the dishwasher without worry. These glasses fit all of my criteria and I am quite happy.

They feel nice in my hand, hold enough volume for our nightly Scotch & water and I feel comfortable putting them into my dishwasher. The big sell on this is they easily stack three high in my cabinets! They fit together well, stack firmly and do not stick together.
