"Stylish"
I just got into wine a little while ago, and wanted some nice glasses to sip from at home, rather than just using a plastic or glass tumbler. But seeing as how I'm anywhere near wine snob status, I didn't want to spend a bunch on a set.

Enter the Riedel O glasses. They were on sale, great price for two glasses. They arrived and I'm happy with them. They're sophisticated enough to be wine glasses, but without the stems, they're not snobby either. I would have given this 5 stars, but one of the glasses I received has a minor imperfection along the rim, almost a little bubble of glass, or crystal. Other than that, they're great!

"Great Glassware"

These are essentially the bowls from the professional quality Riedel Vinum glasses produced without stems. By doing without stems you get a glass that neatly fits in the dishwasher, and save about $10 per glass compared to the stemmed Riedel. I have been using these for several months and they are fabulous. Since they are genuine crystal as opposed to glass, they develop the bouquet much better (due to microscopic "pores" that regular glass lacks). They really gleam, right out of the dishwasher. Best of all, the rims are thin and smooth, which is the luxury feel that premium glassware is all about.

I have been a wine "nut" for over 20 years, and these glasses are teriffic. Buy them, and feel safe using them daily. They will improve the enjoyment of every wine you drink, from Gallo to Lafite



"Excellent glass to compliment Riesling wine"
I would recommend this glass to anyone looking for a casual way to enjoy the best white wine in the world - riesling!!

I use it multiple times throughout the week and love it. Sturdy, nice grasp, and enjoyable! Cheers!!!!!!

"Also good for your morning orange juice"
My ordinary juice tumblers are wearing out, so I'm trying alternatives for a new set. So far, I'm very happy with these. They have all the qualities of the inexpensive Riedel line, including being able to go in the dishwasher. And sure 'nuff, I can tell a difference between a glass of riesling, even *cheap* riesling, by drinking it out of this glass. (My major experiment was using a bottle of wine that was merely okay. The glass made it a *better* okay. I think it still ended up in a fondue.)

The glasses are just a tiny bit fragile for everyday use, but I'm comparing them to heavy juice clunkers rather than a wine glass. They do make my morning juice look cool. If you're thinking of them for wine service, though, they don't seem quite as elegant as stemware... on the other hand, it'll be a lot harder to knock one of these over.
