All 6 of of the glasses in my set were at least slightly misshapen, one was positively a mutant! The stems were not centered, and there were, for lack of a better description, glass tumors where the bowls meet the stems. The glasses were also thicker than I expected from Spiegalau. Other Spiegalau items I've purchased have been superb, so this could very well be an anomaly. ...

I'm just letting you know that if you order these glasses you can expect the "buldge". All other stemware I've purchased by Spiegelau has been beautiful but all 6 in my set also had slight imperfections, buldges, and an odd thickness where the stem meets the bowl. Maybe one could see this as "character". If you want these glasses to match a set, shop around....

I have ordered several sets of Spiegelau glasses from Amazon, and have always been pleased. I ordered these with some trepidation, based on reviews noting a "bulge." I am happy to say that the glasses contained no visible flaws.

I'm sure there are those who would be able to taste a difference between these glasses and the Reidel (same company, different line of stemware), but I can't! The glasses have a nice feel, a reasonably delicate rim, and don't self destruct in the dishwasher - which is delightful when you're throwing a dinner party, and don't feel like washing glasses all night.

These are not cheap - you can certainly find less expensive flutes out there, but they look and feel like quality stemware, and at a great price!

Bought these for our son-in-law for Chrismas and he loved them. I wished I had ordered two sets !!! Maybe next time.
