Crisa 16-Piece Impressions Glassware Set

Crisa 16-Piece Impressions Glassware Set Libbey's Impressions glasses have definite drink appeal. Let's start with their girth. The glasses have ample openings, so ice snuggles down nicely to provide lots of chilling surface for drinks. When it's time to give them a wash, a hand, sponge, or dishtowel fits easily, which is important when you want to present sparkling clean glassware to your guests; the glasses also do well in the dishwasher. Their heavy bottoms have a nice heft so they won't tip easily and give the impression that they were handblown. Four rounded depressions just above the base fit fingertips and make these glasses comfortable to hold. The two sizes in this dandy set accommodate just about any liquid out there: you can offer lucky guests everything from highballs to lemonade to bloody marys. This is the ideal glassware set for a bride and groom. –C. Whitney-Ward
Customer Review: Disappointed
I agree that these glasses are great looking and easy to hold BUT they are fragile. We had one break the first time through the dishwasher (assumed it was our fault) then about a month later one broke in the dishwasher BEFORE we even ran it. Same kind of break as the first one. I am so disappointed because I love them otherwise but I am taking them back . . I need glasses that can stand up to everyday wear AND wash!
Customer Review: Fragile but still I love them
I agree with most of you that these glasses are a bit fragile(not much though). We have been using them for our daily use for last 2 years and always wash them in dishwasher but still have a few of them left around. They look beautiful and are priced reasonably. We love these glasses so much that we are again looking for the same ones.
