Excellent Drinking Glasses!

Bought these to go with our 9-oz rocks glasses of same brand. They are very sturdy and they stack, so it takes less room in the kitchen cabinet. I think I'll order the 20-oz size so we can enjoy big bloody marys!

Great glasses! No explosions yet!

Beautiful glassware! I love that they stack neatly & save room. However, I've begun to see reports on spontaneous explosions with these glasses, so I did some research. These are tempered glass, and what I've learned is that any sort of tempered glass--whether drinking glasses or windows--can spontaneously explode. It has to do with the nature of tempered glass. To put simply, it's created with a certain tension that helps it break into smaller, less dangerous pieces & at the same time resist breaking. This same tension can, under certain circumstances, make it burst for what appears to be no reason. I've seen reports on this glassware, Pyrex ovenware, etc. of this happening. So, at this time, there's no absolute solution. However, I've never had any of my tempered glass spontaneously explode, so it must be a rare event. These glasses are gorgeous & have sufficient weight that they don't tip over easily. Love!

Very durable, also perfect for juice!

Perfect glasses for my morning juice. I drink about 8 oz of apple juice every morning in order to tolerate the dozen or so pills that I have to take daily. I also have to mix an herbal tincture into my juice, so I needed some appropriate sized glasses for this. I like that they are space efficient since I have limited space. I can stack all of them in one stack in my cabinet. I was also shocked that they had zero insulation or padding in the packaging (just a cardboard box with a cardboard divider) and that they arrived with not a single scratch on them. This tells me that they are quite durable.

A new dimension in glass storage.

These are tough, and being a single guy with a small galley kitchen, I need every square inch of counter and shelf space I can get. I love the idea of stackable glasses. I took a shelf's worth of conventional old glasses to the thrift store and replaced them with these with only a fraction of the shelf space usage.

High quality, immensely practical

Good: Hefty and well-balanced, will not tip over on the slightest excuse, even when full, as so many glasses do. High-quality tempered glass makes them shatter-resistant, although they will break if abused sufficiently. Mold marks are all but invisible. Stackable even when hot or wet with no risk of glasses jamming together. Bad: A bit high-priced, but you do get what you pay for. When they break they don't explode into slivers like regular glass, but they also don't break up into car-window-ish rounded bits as I was expecting when I saw "tempered glass." (Also, see below.) Ugly: Nothing; a pleasant minimalist design. Bottom line: I ordered a set of these - the 6-, 12.5- and 16-oz. sizes - in 2010, and was impressed enough with them to order another set this month when attrition made it needful. Five stars. Afterword: I have yet to see one of these glasses spontaneously shatter, as a few reviewers have reported, but I'm not all that surprised. I strongly suspect that these incidents were the result of running a scratched or chipped glass through the dishwasher or microwave. Tempered glass is intolerant of anything more than very minor damage; subjecting a deeply-scratched or -chipped glass to sudden heating or cooling is an open invitation for it to release the internal stresses that make up the "tempered" part. This is inherent in any tempered glass; it is not a product defect, but rather the trade-off for an overall stronger material. A glass with a significant scratch or chip should be thrown away. Fortunately, tempered glass is damage-resistant in the first place, so this won't happen often. I have yet to have to do so.

Refinement in a glass.

A beautiful refined drinking glass tumbler. The order arrived two day in bubble wrap and in perfect condition. I am used to drinking from jelly jar glass tumblers and this design is a huge improvement. The weight of the glass is perfect not too heavy like jelly glass jars. The shape of the glass helps prevent slipping easily, and drinking from the glass is a simple pleasure.

Exactly what I was looking for.

Because Amazon unfortunately sometimes mixes different products in their reviews, this review is for Bormioli Rocco Rock Bar Stackable 9 ounce Rock Glasses. The shape of these rock glasses make them very easy to hold. I had bought a competing product that was good quality, but had a smooth rounded shape that tended to slip through my fingers. For what I use them for (Two shots of whiskey on the rocks with two ice cubes and a little added water), the size is perfect. Normally with such a low price, I would expect a much lower quality product than I received. The glass they are made of seems to be good quality and there are no obvious mold ridges or lines.

Best glasses ever!

I have the Bormioli Rocco stackable glasses in multiple sizes, and am completely happy with every one of them. I will never buy another type of glass again for two potential reasons: 1) these will probably last forever as they seem to be virtually indestructible, and 2) if I were to need more, I would just rebuy and hope they never stop production. These glasses have a nice heft to them without being heavy, and have a nice feel in the hand. They are not flimsy and I actually have no issues giving the smaller ones to small children at a table. I have yet to experience any hazing from the dishwasher, and they definitely appear to be of a very high-quality glass. The fact that I can stack them in the cupboard and double my capacity is merely a bonus! I have never been disappointed in any of the Bormioli glassware products and would highly recommend them to anyone in the market for glassware.

Definitely recommended!

We bought our first set of the Bormioli Rocco Rock Bar Stackable Juice Glasses, Set of 6 over a year ago for our then 2- and 3-year-old, and really liked them. Now that they're older, we've started using these to give them a little more volume for their drinks. These are definitely larger than the juice glasses in diameter, and are a little more challenging for our kids to solidly grip. If you're buying these for kids, I would strongly recommend that you consider the juice glass size for the younger ones instead. I really like this line of glasses. They are hefty and sturdy, and stack well in the cabinet. Obviously, they are still breakable, but I have personally watched several of them hit our kitchen floor (hard ceramic tile directly on a slab concrete foundation), and bounce. When they do break, they almost crumble, like safety class, which minimizes the very sharp shards of traditional glass. They are also able to take drastic temperature changes much better than standard glass. I'm planning to replace all of our standard drinking glasses with glasses from this line, too, so that all of our family is using them. My only minor complaint is that I wish they came in sets of 4 or 8, because 6 seems an odd number for our needs.

Love the glasses in this line. Excellent Value and Attractive...

LOVE these glasses. Ordered them after I bought the 6 3/4oz juice glasses. Nice, attractive glasses. Very comfortable in the hand. Have a nice weight to them...and they Stack! I have some pretty nice dinnerware and I have no problem using these glasses with it...as their a pretty attractive glass. I'll be ordering more...and I want to order some of the larger glasses too. Excellent purchase, product, packaging and delivery.
