Bormioli Rocco Bodega Collection Glassware – Set Of 12 Medium 12 Ounce Drinking Glasses For Water, Beverages & Cocktails – 12oz Clear Tempered Glass Tumblers

Not myf first choice as I was searching for a set of durable everyday glases, however I prefer a more sculpted shape, however these have worked out quite well, particularly since they stack leaving more space in the cabinet for other items.

Very happy with the look and feel of these glasses. But, they are definitely not 17oz. I used two different measuring cups and both show the glasses to be 16oz to the very tippy top of the rim. Frustrated because I was really looking for a glass that could actually hold close to 16oz.Then I checked to see if it could be because European ounce is smaller than US ounce and it turns out the Imperial Ounce is slightly less (.96) , but that still doesn't make up for the difference I'm measuring.I really like the look and feel (not too heavy or thick) of the glasses, so going to keep.Update 6 weeks later: Absolutely LOVE these glasses. They aren't super thick (which I like, especially at the rim) but are plenty sturdy. I have smaller hands and they are more comfortable than some larger ones, yet my husband and sons also say they really like them. Wish I had discovered them years ago! I've got several types of glasses/cups and now use these exclusively. Looking forward to clearing out the cabinet, getting rid of a ton of plastic tumblers.

Glasses are perfect for layered desserts of fruit and “yogurt pudding” and for wine slushies with several kinds of fruit layers. They elevate treats. They stack well in my glassware cabinet and I love the look of them.

I own about 50 of these since finding them about 10 years ago. They are everywhere in my house.A few bullet points:1. They stack easily. A stack of 5 fits neatly in my cupboard. They stick together a bit if stacked while still hot, but they come apart easily.2. They are quite durable. I have hardwood floors and granite counters. I drop them occasionally. In over 10 years of owning a bunch of these, I've only broken 2 or 3.3. They don't easily etch. I put these in the dishwasher, and only a few show any signs of wear.4. They are easy to clean and empty. A uniform diameter means it's easy to get a spoon, spatula, or sponge inside. I use these for cooking and baking, both as vessels and as mixing and pouring containers.5. They work for any beverage. I no longer stock wine, beer, or rocks glasses. These don't provide "optimal" drinking for fancier beer/wine, but they are at least 90% as good as the expensive glassware that I've retired over the years. These are never the "wrong" answer for your beverage, and they never feel out of place in classy or casual settings.6. They are inexpensive. At about $3 each, they work well as vessels for gifts or for bringing desserts to potlucks and the like. I make an oreo pudding thing in them, and the layers look really neat inside. Also good for single-serving pastas, single-serving guacamole bowls, and overnight oats.7. They freeze and store well. I freeze soups in them and cover with little silicone lids. I have about 10 in my freezer right now. Also good for small amounts of leftovers in the fridge. They microwave, bake, and air-fry just fine.I could afford nicer rocks glasses and the like, but I just adore the honest, simple, and high-quality functionality and looks of these.

Some reviewers have said there are visual defects, I too find this to be true, but I still like the clean lines and functionality. They are consistent in size. I am a glassblower and so I understand how defects happen, but I'm wondering if the company could address manurfacturing processes to up their game? All in all, I like these glasses alot and I am super picky because I can make nice ones too. I love a good design and these fit the bill.Visual defects: little bump on the lip, irregular glass thickness around the bottom sides.I am most upset about the stupid stickers I had to spend 20 minutes removing from the bottoms. I have purchased 4 sets of glasses so far and I think the most recent two sets have had these stickers. This is a world-wide manufacturing problem I would really like to have addressed. These stickers should just peel off! Or in a boxed set, why does each one need a sticker?I ran each sticker under hot water to be able to remove the paper. Then I had to figure out what solvent or substance would remove the glue. I tried alcohol and a paper towel first, it was not the ticket as it dissolved and smeared the glue requiring multiple doses of alchohol and multiple paper towels to avoide the already dissolved glue. I was dreading having to dig out the paint thinner. Then I tried Bar Keeper's Friend, an abrasive, with paper towel and water. That was most satisfying to use, it removed the glue more quickly, but it took elbow grease.Seriously, aren't manufacturer's thinking about consumer use? I withheld one star for this issue, I'd like to see a change in thinking!

Unusual size, and stackable. I like Bernoulli glasses as I have pets and don’t want broken glasses to shard - these break into safer pieces
