I was pleasantly surprised at this martini set. And, I was equally impressed that it arrived unbroken, thanks to the styrofoam packaging from the manufacturer and additional packing material in the Amazon box. Since I kept checking and was able to get the set for $9.99, I went back and ordered another set quickly for the same price. I think that the set is well worth that price, but I would question anything over $20. The glass is thin in the glasses and the shaker, so I fully expect to crack the pieces by accident over time. Also, the shape of the stems of the glasses is curved, instead of straight, increasing the possibility of dropping or mishandling. I figure that I will be as careful as possible, but I do plan on using the sets outdoors for al fresco dinner parties and think that at the price at which I bought the sets, they are much better than plastic.

This set is a great starter set for someone looking to enhance their bar area. Or to be used as decoration. Don't expect for it to be a well used set. The glass is very thin and easily breakable. The tray I was a lil dissapointed with. They call it acryllic, I call it plastic. It will make a great piece for your house. My first set arrived broken and used...but of course, Amazon rocks and they replaced the set. You cannot beat Amazon's, Service, Selection & Price. Thus... buy this and your satisfaction will of course be guaranteed. Buy it for $20 or less, your getting a great bargain. Any other price is "OK."

(speaking of the 8 piece circle martini set)

I bought the same set at a local store so I'm going to focus on the quality of these Circleware glassware.

I've only got one glass and the shaker left only after 2 months. The other three glasses magically broke themselves while they were sitting on my kitchen counter. They just simply started to crack without being touched by anybody. When I saw the first one was broken, I thought I might have knocked it against something else. But later another day my GF and I were stunned when we heard a crispy sound of cracking when we were sitting backward to the glasses. Then we watched the crack expanded across the surface of the glass by itself. Magic!!! We realized these glasses could break by themselves! So we were not surprised at all when we saw the third one broke. Now we are waiting for the last of them to break. The shaker is large and makes 4 martinis easily, but the cover of mine leaks liquid out.

Pros: Good looking set, always makes you in the mood of martini. Cheap price. Large shaker.

Cons: Low low low quality of glass.

Conclusion: If you love to make martinis by yourself, spend your money on some other better glassware. I'd have rated them one star if they didn't make some good drinks for me.

This looked like a great set until my boyfriend tried to make his first martini... the shaker shattered in his hands. i guess thats what you get for buying something cheap...

Nice set, the glass is thin. I havent used it yet, but, wouldnt be surprised if it breaks when we do. One of the glasses arrived with the stem broken completely off. It is DEFINITELY thin glass. Very thin. I would have been VERY mad to have paid more than the $7.50 I did for it.

This is a gorgeous set that is reminiscent of Pier One, IKEA or Dansk, and at $8.00, it's a steal ! Beautiful quality, well-packaged, and you can't do better for price. Target has these glasses for $9.99 per pair, minus the martini shaker or the tray.

If you're looking for an inexpensive gift for someone who enjoys martinis, this set would be ideal. It looks much more expensive than the price suggests and the quality is excellent.

I bought this set on sale for $19.99 (regularly $50) And at that price this set was a steal. Good quality glasses and shaker. The serving tray was very nice as well. The only problem I had was that one of the glasses was chipped during shipping. I chose not to return it at the time, because I didn't want to deal with the paperwork. At that price I was still happy with a set of three. I only plan on using two of them anyway.

I ordered this set because I was in need of everyday sort of martini glasses. They are nice looking but made of lightweight glass. They are good for casual entertaining because for $20 who cares if you break them.

While my sister was extremely excited about the glasses I got her has a gift, one arrived broken. When I called customer service to replace the broken glass I was notified that Amazon would not replace the damaged item. I could get a full refund, but they would not send a replacement. I was appalled. What business refuses to replace damaged items? You can guarantee I won't be buying anything being shipped through Amazon anymore. I will buy directly from the seller.

My lil' lady has been making Chocolate Martinis quite often for the last few weeks. This set makes the whole process really easy. For the price I paid, the glasses and shaker thing are a great deal. The glasses have this weird wavy handle thing going on but it adds style! And by "adds", I mean "doesn't really add".
