This was my first Amazon non-book/entertainment item. I have a new place, with contemporary furntiure and was looking for clear stemware, but not the same old, same old, plain clear kind. I was skeptical - but ordered a 20 glass assortment - these balloons, plus the white wine and martini glasses. They just came - in PERFECT condition, beautifully packaged, quickly shipped. They are, indeed, a "10" - but Amazon only allows us to rate them a "5". They are contemporary, thin-rimmed and - NOT made in China - but in France. Amazing. Believe me, I had taken many trips to the outlets (including Mikasa, Fitz & Floyd) Pier 1, Cost Plus, as well as at the pricier home goods stores in Southern California... The outlets could not match the Amazon price. Save gas, $$$$ and duck crowds. Go Amazon and wait a few days for your doorbell to ring. You will be very happy.

I know--of course wine goblets are delicate! But, because of the etching in these, one false move and they are dust. However, they are lovely, you can catch the color and movement of the wine well, and I still consider them a good purchase. I had purchased them on a department store website because the store itself was out of them. Then, I found they were backordered. Why I didn't start at Amazon is beyond me. Of course, Amazon had them and got them here right on time. In one piece! (Or rather, four, since there are four glasses.)

I saw these in the mall and they seemed overpriced so I came to Amazon and found them at a more reasonable price. These glasses are beautiful, yes they are large but that only means you wont be filling your glass as often. Very good quality, striking appearance and well worth the price.

These glasses are beautiful, but please read before you buy. They hold 24 oz and I was surprised at the large size when I received them. I felt like a little kid holding a huge glass.

I think this is the first Amazon review I've written. And I've been buying things through Amazon for years. These glasses are absolutely beautiful. And they're HUGE. You could probably fit nearly an entire bottle of wine into one glass. You probably don't want to do that though. :-) The quality is topnotch, as per Mikasa's usual. They are big conversation pieces. Everyone that has seen mine has been thoroughly impressed. I had them on my bridal registry and two of my guests purchased them for themselves as well. I can't wait to add more of the pieces to my collection. I want them all!

I was looking for some nice regular size wine glasses & I saw these. They are really nice but they are BIG. I did not realize how big they were. But if you like the big wine glasses you will like these. they are pretty.

But not as CRAZY huge as some of these reviews would have you think. They are oversized but not GIANT.

I get tons of compliments on them!

Love these glasses! We have them all: white, red, tall, short. So easy for everyone to keep track of their drink!

The Cheers set by Mikasa make great bar and drinking glasses. They have style, feel great in your hand all at at great price.

The customer that stated they handles are too thin is incorrect, that is what adds to the style of elegant glassware.

If you are looking for large wine glasses, you're gonna want these wine glasses. They consume a good part of the chatting during the wine "drinking."
