5.0 out of 5 stars
Great Buy at this Price, Good Quality, December 8, 2009
This review is from: Godinger Dublin 6-Piece Crystal Whiskey Decanter Set (Kitchen)
I needed a gift for my groomsmen for my wedding in about a month. I hassled with myself between this set and some much more expensive cystal decanter sets ($150-$185) on other websites where I knew I would be guaranteed good quality. I finally decided to buy these (not a lot of extra money floating around), and that I would return them if they were not of a reasonable quality. 2 of the 3 sets I ordered came in today (4 days with the free shipping option), and I inspected all pieces. I own a more expensive decanter set already that I bought overseas, so I didn't expect to be too impressed, but I was. The weight of all the pieces is similar to the Waterford Crystal. Almost like heavy glass, but it says right on the box... 24% Lead Crystal. The cuts in the glass are not super fine, but are more than acceptable, and give a very attractive look to this set. The ball stopper is extremely heavy and though not frosted, seats well in the neck of the decanter for a nice seal. I thought the decanter itself looked small in the pictures, but it's not, it is a standard size (24 oz or so...guessing). We pealed back the paper on the silver tray, and it was mirrored nicely without blemishes (not that the tray really matters that much ayway). Again, this set is not just a good set for the money, it's a good set.... and the price makes it truly a steal. I would be more than happy to display this set in my home and offer drinks from it to any class of company. I know the gift will go over well, don't hesitate to buy this unless you just want top-notch crystal and desire to spend more money. Great product.

5.0 out of 5 stars
super quality, upscale design, October 24, 2006
This review is from: Godinger Dublin 6-Piece Crystal Whiskey Decanter Set (Kitchen)
I have been looking for this kind of crystal items for a long time, nothing I found with this quality and relatively low priced. I would have spent $200 for this, if I had have seen this in the shops.
I am lucky that I happen searched in Amazon, exactly the classic design I have been looking for. after item arrived, I am impressed with the super quality, the weight, really heavy glasses, plus simple designed silver plated tray, just perfect! This set is very tasteful, classic, elegant, very upscale! I recommend 100%. This was made in Slovakia. This is one of my few best purchases! I can imagine to keep it for home forever, I will never get tired of this set.

Great quality glasses and decanter, July 29, 2009
This review is from: Godinger Dublin 6-Piece Crystal Whiskey Decanter Set (Kitchen)
The glassware is really heavy and that's great. It has a nice thickness to it. The silver plate tray it comes on is more-or less how people described it, not of the greatest quality, but if you go in knowing that you won't be disappointed as the set is a great value. Every couple of months you need to POLISH the tray with silver polish. I give it 5 stars because I got more than what I wanted with this.
