It seems with all corning / pyrex products there may be some type of flaw or imperfection. Fortunately, it wasn't harmed. The whole set was packaged extremely well.

Highlights
Quality
Have yet to heat it but you can tell the quality is very good and will sustain heat
High quality german made pyrex will consider buying other products from this supplier
It came with the 1 liter breaker chipped
Ive had problems with a particular measuring glass tall and narrow with the paintmarkings coming off
Packaging/appearance
Packaging isnt quite up to shipping standards
Competitiveness
Purchased needing a 250ml but having a few additional bucks and wound up using the little ones much more
I remember using pyrex in the chem lab in college so when i needed some glassware for home use it was a nobrainer
Buy only pyrex or another reputable brand
Perhaps if all my beakers broke and i started anew id try a cheaper brand
