The glasses arrived in perfect condition. I was concerned about ordering such fragile glasses but there was not a chip! They arrived in good time and were well packaged.

These wine glasses are the size used by most wine tasting experts. They are definitely as good as wine glasses that cost a much,much more. These glasses are slightly heavier than crystal, but they are lead free and way more durable.The thinness of the rims are equal to Crystal. They truly enhance the wine drinking experience, and even allow you properly aerate by the glass instead of decanting a whole bottle. I agree with the other reviewer, that because of the size of these wine glasses, you probably do not need the Burgandy glasses.Although they are also nice to have on hand. These glasses have escaped some minor accidents, where some of my other wine glasses have not been so fortunate.
Update: I noticed the bowls are noticeably off-center from the stems(when looking straight down from top of glass) but does affect the balance or even an issue in any other way.

Loved them great wine glasses, very nice 9"+ tall size, at amacing price!! This was a great purchased, definitely ***** Five Star

These glasses are awesome, and unlike uber expensive handmade glasses, they can be washed in the dishwasher. They're huge, so I don't really see much need for different Bordeaux and Burgundy glasses.

I've been looking for thin-rimmed wine glasses for a couple years now and it's just so hard to know unless you just purchase them. According to the description and a few reviews, these had thin rims you might find in the restaurants. Um no. Not only did these not have thin rims, they felt like those cheap plastic wine glasses you're served out by the pool when restaurants and bars don't want the glasses breaking. Super cheap looking and feeling. I gave it 2 stars instead of 1, however, because the bowl size is adequate and the shape is generous so I suppose if your standards aren't too high these might do. Otherwise, I, and I suggest you, continue to keep looking for the perfect wine glass. At $25, I should have known these were too good to be true.
