Libbey 16-Piece Vibe Glassware Set

Libbey 16-Piece Vibe Glassware Set Customer Review: Funky Shape
These glasses are very robust. They shipped without breaking and they feel very solid. I haven't broken one yet (this is a miracle!).

Unlike most glasses, they taper to the top. When drinking out of the glasses, it hits my nose kind of weird. I guess it's something I'll just have to get used to. Because of their weird shape, they don't fit quite right in the hand. My husband refuses to use them because of the strange shape.

These are made very well, but they should taper towards the bottom not the top!
Customer Review: nice!
Just received them today… all in one piece… I really like the sturdy feel and style of these glasses. I was trying to replace my cabinet full of pint glasses and these have that thick glass feel that is nice to hold, so it was a great choice :) Hope they stand the test of time! One thing… since the top rim is smaller than the bottom, it may prove to be an ackward drinking position for some and forget getting your hand in there to wash it.
