Libbey 16-Piece Swerve Glassware Set



Not Practical
When I bought these, it was more or less impulse justified by good reviews. The glasses definitely draw attention, and I've never had one break (despite me being quite clumsy with them). However, they're very impractical. I curse at them whenever I have to wash them. They don't fit into anything well: cupholders, dishwashers, shelves, anything. Although their design is unusual and aesthetically appealing, I've never really liked them when drinking from them. I much prefer drinking from my Mom's set of Mexican glasses or even plain glass jars. These might be fun if you have other 'regular' glasses, but I really wouldn't recommend them if they're going to be your only set.

Fun basic glassware
I ordered these glasses to have extra for a party. Fun shape drew compliments. I now shuffled them in to use as my everyday glasses (all matching!), but I do have concerns with cleaning the larger glass. With no dishwasher, I handwash everything and I find it hard to reach down into the recesses at the base of the tall curved glass. The smaller one is fine--my hand reaches.

Really nice glasses, and even better customer service
Hi... I purchased a set of these glasses, and they arrived quickly, but broken. After using amazon.com's return procedure, the vendor notified me that they would send me another set, no charge. I got the second set, all intact, just as fast. I got exactly what I wanted, and I'm glad to give the vendor a really good review. Thanks!
