She loved it…. I bought this for my daughter becasue she was starting to like Abby for the first time. She loved it especially the Abby doll. She has been carrying Abby around with her nonstop. The books are appropriate for her age. This present was a big hit. Click to Editorial Reviews

Work of Art This is one of those every day objects that is so well crafted and nicely designed I want to put it on display. It has a really nice heft to it. The cam design is nothing new, but this is to average corkscrew what the Golden Gate bridge is to the average bridge. Click to Editorial Reviews

Quality Product These are very solid mugs and quite durable. The double-walled design keeps the mug’s contents cool or hot. The inside surface is one continuous piece with no seams, making hand-washing much easier. The bottom of the mug is solid (as opposed to glass in some tankards) and is raised off the table surface by a wide, generous lip that keeps the mug stable and removes the need for a coaster to protect against condensation. A very nice design that I highly recommend. Tankards These are great drinking vessels. Dual wall keeps the drink cold while still allowing the outside to be held comfortably. Recessed and wide base does not need a coaster. Excellent packaging and overall great set. Perfect Gift I got these this year for Christmas from my sister. They come well packed with each mug separately bagged inside of the packing material. The bags are nice enough that I plan on using them while the mugs are on the shelf to keep dust out of them. The mugs themselves are very comfo

WELL WORTH THE PRICE I have been without a proper champagne glass for three years and have been using the one cut-glass red wine glass but last year I wanted to purchase a glass more fitting for the occasion. After considering a few choices, including a pair of gorgeous purple-=colored glasses from Vera Wang, I decided to purchase the single champagne flute from Darlington. I only needed one glass anyway, and I liked the graceful swirly design on the glass. I had not realized how tall the glass was until it arrived, but it is very light and a true delight to drink from. I will look forward to using it again to toast in New Year. Beautiful You are going to need to order more than 1 if for special occasions. I am glad I ordered 2 because I wasnt sure how many were actually there. Beautiful glasses perfect for any occasion! Click to Editorial Reviews

Great decanter and aerator The decanter turned out to be much better in person than what I had expected from the pictures. I expected the glass to be really thin, but it was surprisingly thick and looks to be constructed really well. If you have a big gathering, this can comfortably hold upwards of 2 magnums (or 4+ 750ml wine bottles). The decanter essentially speedens up the process of opening the body of the wine when it is first poured from the bottle. The difference may not be so noticeable in recent vintage wines, which probably don’t need much time to aerate if at all, but older vintage wines open up much faster with this decanter. Leave the wine in the decanter for at least 30 minutes before drinking, this I think is just enough time for the wine to open up. The aerator is a good addition to the decanter, also of good quality. However note that it comes with a aluminum sediment filter. I do NOT recommend using this at all. The aluminum will affect the taste of the wine to a sma

Nice Glasses… but As other reviewers said, these are heavy, good-sized glasses that are very nice. However, if you are an owner of Waterford crystal, you can tell the difference between the Marquis (which is machine-made) vs. hand-made Waterford lead crystal. Big Goblets The Brookside design is a heavy cut crystal and very attractive. These goblets, however, are nearly too large for practical use. They are more like an iced beverage size than a red wine size; and they are the only “bowl” shaped goblets in the Brookside line. However, for the price, they are unbeatable if you want Waterford on your table (even if it is Marquis by Waterford). Looks like Amazon put this review on ALL the Brookside Marquis goblets & glasses we purchased. It was meant ONLY for the red wine/all purpose goblets. The white wine goblets were a very nice size. We intentionally purchased the over-sized old fashion glasses, and you know when you are holding a drink in those– very heavy! The iced beverages wou

Swing Top Bottles Every year, my wife and I make Lemoncello for the holidays. These are perfect! Just enough to get people hooked…and ask for more. Shipping of the bottles came a lot faster than was stated. So great! Will purchase from them until they no longer carry the product. Great Bottles for our homemade Limoncello We grow our own lemons. This year we had a bumper crop. So we decided to make limoncello to give for Christmas gifts. Bottles are just the right size and very good quality. Great quality, good seals! I was pretty iffy about ordering these. I had had 2 bad experiences with ordering glass products and receiving a box of glass confetti. These were packed VERY well, I doubt a drop off of my roof onto the pavement below would have managed to break one. The bottles are exactly as advertised, hold 250ml with enough air room to seal the jar. Nice, heavy glass. I dropped one of these onto tile floor and it didn’t break, woo! I have reused these several times for my homemade ho

Believe it or Not!!! It realy works!!!! It only needs a good quality young wine to turn it into an excellent aged superior wine!!!! Click to Editorial Reviews

Great Buy for all AC/DC fans!!! well i had ordered several types of mugs shooters and glasses for metal bands and i can say these are the BEST so far!!! so… you will not find no cheap stickers with faded colors on the glass or colors too colored that takes out details of the drawings… for me the price is worth it!! they look better than in the picture…. Nice glasses I bought these for my husband. AC/DC has always been his favorite heavy metal rock group. He really likes them. We’ve had them since Christmas, used daily, wash in the dishwasher & they still look brand new! Incredible Quality at a low price. After doing a lot of research on the internet, I found that Amazon had the best deal on the AC/DC glasses. I was EXTREMELY impressed with the quality of the craftmanship as well as the quality in which they arrived. Thank you Amazon for the continued success. Click to Editorial Reviews

Tested many, this is the best A Review From A Bar Above After spending 150 on nothing but mixing spoons of all types, this is the one that I chose for all the bartenders where I work. The things I love about it: It’s a visually appealing spoon, not your average red topped bar spoon. Functionally it is great, whether using a pint glass or a Yarai mixing glass, this bar spoon gets the job done. When stirring, the flat nature of the spoon means that it’s not getting caught up in the ice, and it has enough weight to it to move the ice around. (A problem I found with most other bar spoons). The face of the spoon is quite stiff and durable meaning that a bottle placed on top of it, or smashed into it is not going to cause it to bend. After 6 months of usage in a high volume restaurant bar, these spoons are proving to be worth every cent. Haven’t had a single problem with any of them yet. Highest recommendation Things you will not be able to use this spoon for: Obviously measuring… The Famou

Love it! Beautiful, elegant piece. A must have for any wine enthusiast. Bought for myself then had to buy more as gifts! Wow factor This is basically a fancy aerator that sits at the top of your bottle. I was wine tasting with my wife and the winery was pouring their tastings through this. Needless to say I had to have one because it seemed so cool. It works just as well as a venturi. I would recommend it. Best of the aerators The Centellino is one of the best wine aerators we’ve found and delivers fantastic taste without the wait in traditional decanters. We were given one as a wedding gift and have run several taste tests against a variety of other aerators. In our first test, we had 2 identical bottled of wine, one which we opened 30 min ahead of time and put in a decanter, the other freshly opened. We poured 3 glasses, 1 from the freshly opened bottle, 1 from the 30 min bottle, and 1 aerated via the Centellino from the freshly opened bottle. The Centellino glass won the taste test

perfect size to share a cocktail We like to share our cocktails so we can have a couple different kinds and they stay nice and cold. We’re talking normal size cocktails, about four ounces, not the quick-drunks kind. I don’t know why glasses always say they hold much more than they actually do–must be some industry thing–but the size is perfect for our purposes, holding approx. 1.75 ounces each when filled to about 1/4″ from top. They are lovely, graceful but sturdy. A great product. Love These These mini Coupes are fantastic. I love to mix cocktails at home for friends, often we like to sample many. Instead of passing around full sized 9oz cocktail glasses or coupes, we can each have our own glass, and sample many cocktails in an evening. The glasses are really beautiful and high quality. Everyone who has drunk from them has commented on how nice they are. As for size: basically a normal cocktail recipe will fill 3 of these glasses. Click to Editorial Reviews

Be careful! While these are beautiful wine glasses, they are extremely fragile. Though I have handled the glasses very carefully, all 4 glasses have managed to break over the course of 12 months. I recently ordered a new set, and 3 of the 4 were broken by UPS during delivery. Buyer beware. wine lover These glasses are beautiful! The bowl is larger than most, and a good weight to hold. Beautiful etching. Click to Editorial Reviews

GREAT GLASSES I REALLY LIKE THEM BUT TALLER THAN I THOUGHT THEY WOULD BE. HOLDS MORE THAN ONE BOTTLE OF BEER. I SUGGEST YOU ORDER THE NEXT SIZE SMALLER. Click to Editorial Reviews

Excellent pint glass These have a nice heft to them. The glass is very clear. Nice thin lip so you don’t feel like your lips are wrapped around a dinner plate. The slope to the sides makes them stand out from the crowd just enough, while still being a “plain” glass for anything you’d normally serve in a pint glass. Easily hold a 12 ounce bottle with ample room for head A 16 ounce leaves 7/8″ for a reasonable head. This is the go-to glass when I want to knock back a pint off the tap with friends over. (it’s stable) Best Beer Glasses These glasses are great. They feel so nice in my hand. They are not heavy for a pint. Beer does taste better in these Great glasses These large glasses are the best! They are chip resistant, feel great in your hands and are well balanced to hold. Beer never had it so good. Click to Editorial Reviews

wine decanter with aerator I actually bought two 0f these to use at my husbands 80th birthday. He was so impressed that he’s decided he must give one to his best mate who is a real wine buff. I was impressed with the price, the way it was packed and the delivery time in which i received. Can’t thank the seller enough – except for the fact that he has now cost me a lot more money in wine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Chipped first time I washed it. It chipped on first use, but it looks good overall and the filter and fountain work well. I didn’t return it since I figured it wasn’t worth the hassel and it wasn’t damaged on delivery. Ok purchase.

Such a beautiful designed decanter I do love my decanters and carafes. But they have to be different. This Titan Crystal Glass “Rouge” does stands securely, it does not roll around. And I always pay attention that the decanter is easy to hold and this one is perfect. I fill the decanter at least 30-60 minutes before dinner and this will give the wine time to breath. Just by looking at it I would like to open a bottle of my favorite wine. A beautiful design and very well made by one of the best crystal companies. Beautiful item I am very pleased with this decanter. The photo on Amazon had us a bit worried as it appeared to be misshapen. It has an indent so the decanter can be laid down without rolling. It is nicely done and does not spoil the symmetry of the decanter. The rim has a flat top edge which I thought may chip, but the whole thing is solid and to me says quality. Serving from this decanter adds a little something special to your wine, in both bouquet and occasion. Give it a s

Great gift tradition Every year I send my sister and her husband the next two glasses for Christmas and every Christmas they toast with the new addition – the glasses are gorgeous as Waterford always is and they come in a beautiful gift box that is almost as pretty as the glass itself! Waterford Christmas…half-way there These two beautiful items mark the half-way point in the 12-piece collection. Lovely to look at, delightful to hold, but if you break them, you’re wife will ring your neck! Romantic Gift for multiple years This is not a set I would collect for myself. It’s ideal for gift giving, particularly to a lifelong friend you miss very much. It’s a romantic them and it will carry you through 12 holidays! (BTW – the handsome “limited edition” box is actually 13″x 6″ x 6″ and it stores or ships quite nicely. It’s a lovely red box with a silver suitcase latch, that could can ad a few more personal items to, before giving.) Click to Editorial Reviews

This works very well I keep this in the freezer to hold ice. I like that it’s stainless steel because I’m moving away from using plastics for food and beverages. Simple, rugged and easy to clean. I like this ice bucket, its not over designed and works very well, it’s simple and does the job. Holds ice for hours and can be easily cleaned. Some times less is better..in design at least.

Just like Cary Grant Champagne coupes are a rarity these days, having been driven underground by critics who insist that “the bubbles last longer in champagne flutes.” Who cares what they say? If you want to feel like Cary Grant or Eva Marie Saint or Audrey Hepburn, this may be the glass for you. Lovely glasses, nice crystal, the price is quite reasonable and they can do double duty for handsome servings of dessert or appetizers. What difference does it make if the bubbles last longer in a flute? Instead of standing around holding your glass, drink up. You’ll never know whether they would have lasted longer hypothetically. Great for the price Despite the negative review I decided to order these anyway. There seems to be some confusion, they are NOT crystal, but are glass (dishwasher safe)– obviously for $80 you won’t get 6 crystal glasses, you’d get half of a glass. They arrived in great condition, no chips or cracks. The glass is not ugly and chunky, it’s fairly thin but not fragile

beautiful the etching is beautiful, well done, the glass is a classic shape that feels solid and is comfortable to hold Click to Editorial Reviews

Fantastic glasses I really like these glasses. The bases don’t have a seam and are laser engraved with the brand. They have a nice gentle slope to the sides. The rim is very thin. The weight is nice in the hand. The color is very clear like crystal. They have a nice ring to them. I bought an entire set of Schott Zwiesel glasses, and I use this one most frequently for most lagers and darker ales. A classic pilsner also looks great in it, but I prefer the taller traditional pilsner glasses for those. This is much higher quality than their other pils flute. Interesting trait, it’s hard to get these to sing with a wet finger on the rim, but if you wet your fingers and rotate around the base they sing loud. Strange. I discovered this while hand washing them. Beer glasses Very nice quality beer glasses, purchased for my father who likes drinking from a stemmed glass. I have no complaints!

Not entirely as described The description of this decanter states that it is made of Tritan glass, a Schott exclusive that makes the glass especially break resistant and dishwasher safe. After receiving this item from Amazon I looked high and low at the package but there is no reference to Tritan anywhere. This prompted me to go to the Schott Zwiesel website where it becomes clear that this decanter is part of their Crystal Glass line and not part of the Tritan line of wine glasses. If Tritan glass is used in its manufacture (it is made in Romania) it isn’t stated. While somewhat disappointing it isn’t that big an issue for me since large decanters like this one are made of thick glass and aren’t likely to end up in the dishwasher nearly as often as a wine glass. Amazon should, however, relabel the product to reflect its true construction. Update: One more thing. According to the packaging and the owners’ guide (yes it comes with a short owners guide) the decanter features a “no drip”

Attractive quality These beer glasses have a great shape and are sturdy without being clunky. They are the perfect size for a standard bottle of beer, with just enough room for a good beer head. beautiful glasses These glasses have a beautiful shape and weight. The glass is substantial but thin which gives an elegance to the glass and drinking from these glasses is a lovely experience. The glass enhances the contents and doesn’t take away from any aspect of the drinking experience. The glasses wash beautifully without spotting when washed by hand or in the dishwasher. Best Beer Glasses Ever! The brews just taste so much better in these glasses! Crystal totally transforms the taste of alcohol from something decent into something extraordinary! Plus, the shape forms the perfect head at the top, which also brings out flavor. Click to Editorial Reviews

Great Product – BUT A well designed product that many would find useful. However, IT CANNOT BE USED WITH ARTIFICIAL CORKS. Many wines come with artificial corks and more wines are joining the artificial cork parade. If one only purchases wines with cork stoppers, they should love this product. Click to Editorial Reviews

Much sturdier than Riedel I disagree with the first reviewer. I have always had Riedel Vinum, but once I saw the Forte set (not the cru classic) I decided to try them. Yes the Riedel is thinner in some places, but the Forte shape is EXACTLY the same as the Bordeaux Riedel Vinum’s Bordeaux. These glasses are much sturdier. I do not have to worry about my wife washing them, she has broken all my Riedels. These can even be put in a dish washer ! (shudder). Unfortunately, Amazon’s price is out of whack, even with free prime shipping. Most reputable places, like K&L Wines have them for $15 less. Tough and sexy I can’t recommend these wine glasses enough. I bought them in March, since my other wine glasses, one by one, had died tragic deaths mostly related to the dishwasher. I’ve had them now for about 9 months, and am tickled pink. First, a disclaimer: I had one wine glass break in the dishwasher, but that was a result of my accidentally dropping it on the dishes while I was loading th

Heavier duty, larger bowl than their regular Tritan collection Stem at base of bowl is a bit bigger, the rim also. Bowl is less elongated so it ends up being wider. Work fine, swirl the wine fine, just not as elegant looking. Overall somewhat shorter than their standard large Bordeaux bowl. I think will be more break resistant. I would buy either line of Tritan glassware, I first bought them when they first came out and they are very break resistant. Gorgeous & Versatile We’ve enjoyed Schott Zwiesel glassware for several years now – terrific quality and price. These 8 ounce glasses are simple, gorgeous, and great for wine with lunch, dinner, or dessert – red or white. Makes us feel like we’re at a sidewalk cafe in France! Yep they hold fluid Needed some wine glasses, So I purchased them, guess what they work fine for holding water, wine, most any other fluid you want to feel fancy while drinking.

I like Bought this as a gift for my Mom. She uses it to take her wine everywhere. Everyone always asks where she got it. The opener that comes with the holder is also decent, although my mom replaced it with a better one. Handles are kinda big and clunky, but look cool. Convenient and well designed This wine tote is excellent for carrying your favorite bottle of wine to a byob restaurant or a picnic. The insulation keeps the wine at an ideal temperature, and the corkscrew pocket is a great way to always have an opener on-hand. Perfect sized tote My future in-laws wanted a cute little tote to bring wine with them to restaurants so they no longer had to brown bag it. I found this one, which although the color was boring (my fiance’s request), it did the job. My in-laws were pleased with the product and would recommend them to friends. I would just get a more fun color myself. Click to Editorial Reviews

Hi-Ball Glasses We love these glasses. They look lovely with other ones that we purchased many years ago by the same company- they just don’t have the gold rim, which is not a useful feature anyway. These spruce up a table These add to any table setting, being clear they coordinate with any table setting, the cut glass configuration gives them a fancy/dressed up feel but they are also solid so I use them even with young kids. And because I can so easily order them on Amazon. I’m not worried if one gets dropped and it breaks! These are perfect for my needs. Safer than leaded crystal but not as clear Nice glasses. I bought 2 boxes for a set of 12 to replace leaded crystal glasses. Why take the chance on lead. Click to Editorial Reviews

Best Damn Cork Screw This is the second one that i have owned. The other lasted for eight years before my gorilla friend broke it. Two movements to remove a cork from the bottle. When you compared that to a Rabbit which takes four or more movements, a real time saver. Time you can spend drinking from your bottle. Best Corkscrew Ever The quickest, easiest corkscrew ever. Have owned it for over five years, and it never fails to smoothly and cleanly open the bottle in two seconds. The foil cutter also works exactly as described. You won’t be disappointed. I love this corkscrew It’s so simple and easy to use. I love it so much I have given it as gifts to multiple friends. It sit nicely on the stand and has a spot for the foil cutter so I never loose it. No broken corks and you don’t need 7 hands. Click to Editorial Reviews

picture of product misleading Looking at the picture it says Oregon on the pitcher and it’s supposed to be etch. When I got this is it is not etch, it looks like they put a sticker on it and they put an O on it as well. Then looking at the glasses they put just the O on it and not both O and Oregon, they color is not green instead they put yellow. Does not look like it does on the picture. I’m very disappointed. When you see the picture you think that’s what it’s going to look like but it doesn’t. I’ll probably keep since it’s a gift and hopefully it’s a good gift. If I would have known the product was NOT going to look like the picture then I wouldn’t had bought it!!! So much nicer than picture shows This is an awesome beer pitcher with glasses. The glasses are so much nicer than depicted on picture. There are etched N’s all over the cup along with it saying Huskers. Great Product so happy!!! Great Quality This set was a great gift! The cups are adorable and the pitcher looks great!

Excellent for wine tasting I bought these glasses for blind tasting wines side by side. They hold 299 ml (10.1 oz vs the 12 oz advertised on the Amazon site), which is, I think, just right for an “all wines” tasting glass – large enough to allow a nose, but small enough to carry in a box and place 8 or so glasses in front of you. The glasses are high quality, light, well shaped to assess the wine color, nose and taste. I compared these to other glasses by tasting the same wine in several differently shaped, sized, and priced glasses, and assessing how each glass brought out the color, viscosity, nose and taste of the wine. Although some glasses tied in some areas, the Sensus scored high in every category, including price. I was worried when I received a beat up box from Amazon, but even though the outer box was poorly sized and padded, the glasses were intact in the Schott Zwiesel box. I’ve used these at blind tastings and find they allow me to focus more on the wines and… Click to Ed

Really Beautiful Stemware Was looking to outfit my bar with some nicer looking stemware than the typical IKEA stuff, but for a reasonable price. Found these on Amazon and they are gorgeous. They have a classy shape and fine lines and a great color. Great for martinis and also really nice just on display in my glass cabinet. Very happy with these, now the hard part is trying to upgrade all the glasses in my shelves to these. Perfect balance of delicacy : strength Beautiful crystal, delicate, but incredibly strong. I’ve bumped on pieces on the granite sink edge while washing and have been amazed that they haven’t shattered. You can’t go wrong with these. Wonderful All Purpose Wine Glass This wine glass is a perfect everyday wine glass but it’s nice enough for company and entertaining too. The size is great – not too big for whites, or too small for red wines. The glasses look elegant, and have a nice thin rim, but are very durable.

Nicer than the picture Costers are even nicer than the photo shows. The detailing on the center part is good. Brass is brightly polished. My set has a more deep black marble than the gray shown in the photo; this might vary though. More of a decorative item in a study or living room coffee table than for everyday use.

Tired of breaking reidel? If you have ever wondered if the right glass can enhance your enjoyment of a good wine, try these. I had a nice collection of riedel stemware and they were amazing in form and function, but I guess I am stone-fisted. I have broken at least 3 hand-washing them. I even wondered if my singing might have contributed. Don’t get me wrong, I try to take good care of delicate things. I even do microsurgery so I can have a light touch when necessary, but come on! After breaking my last glass, I opted to give these a try. I bought the big bowls for my big reds, some smaller bowls for my pinot, and the taller version for my whites (rarely used,but nice to have when needed). The larger proportions and less than optimal geometry were a concern, but that has been more than offset by their durability. I have owned these 18 glasses for more than 2 years now and despite our bumps, clinks, even a few shocking knock overs onto the granite counter-top, they have survived. The gl

Nice… But not quite what expected We really like the bucket set. The bucket is just the right size. We received 12 coasters, and are the paper/cardboard type ones like what is usually at bars/restaurants. The glasses are nice and solid, but not quite as expected. Based on the description of them being “etched” we expected the glass to be etched. The small logo “etches” appear to be made of the same material as the big logo, only in solid white versus team colors. There is no actual “etching”. They are still a nice addition for us to use in our newly completed Packer-themed game room. Click to Editorial Reviews

Innovative Glass – Great Buy We ordered these for our last New Year’s Eve party and I could not be happier. I am one of those people who get sweaty hands just thinking of delicate glass products such as expensive wine and champagne glasses – I remember using the Rosenthal wine glasses we received for our wedding for the first time and pretty much immediately breaking one because it slightly hit the side of the sink while I rinsed it. Introduce the Schott Zwiesel Tritan – THE solution for klutzes like me! Accidentally hit the glass on the sink – the glass remains intact, put it in the dishwasher – it comes out unharmed. Wow. You can even bang two glasses together ‘relatively’ hard (think guests that have had one or two too many and cannot judge their strength that well anymore ) and nothing happens! Wow. As to the style, I really like the simple, no frills shape of the Diva collection as I am not one for etchings or crystal cuts, etc. These go with any style and that makes them even m
