Libbey Geo Heavy Base Tumblers, Set of 16
I ordered these glasses along with some other items. They all showed up in a large box, packed with a single wadded sheet of butcher paper. The box looked like it had been used at least once previously. The glasses were, of course, reduced to several hundred small shards.
These were a gift for my daughter and her husband. They are very pleased with them stating that they are extra heavy and hard to tip over.
Don’t buy these for grandma unless she is seeing Mark McGwire’s trainer. Personally I love em, but they are heavy and to this point would appear to be solid glassware. Yes, I saw a couple reviews suggesting breakage, but I would personally be more worried about dropping them on, and damaging, my marble counter top. I guess time will tell, but after using them for almost three months now I am very impressed. I would definitely recommend these.
I love the heavy base and tapered design, the top is thin and easy/comfortable to drink out of. Glasses have a nice look that goes with everything, fits in dishwasher well – does not tip or hit top and they are durable. I have had them for 3 months and no broken glasses yet. I can see how any glass with a thinner lip could break though, so use some care. I personally only like thin lipped glases and coffee mugs, so worth the slight extra caution to me. I had the ribbed bistro style canning jar or working type glasses before these and could not stand the heft and thick lip on them anymore.
My husband and I love these glasses because the bottom is very thick and the glasses haven’t broke yet! Great find!
