Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Everyone loves these. This is the perfect set, and it arrived in perfect condition.

Riedel is one of the best brands for high quality stemware. The magnums are perfect for all red wine, with a large, well shaped bowl. The rim is thin and elegant for sipping. They are remarkably durable for crystal.



Cons

The marking on the bottom is not reidel but instead a stylized jr. I am a klutz but this is ridiculous. Stay away, either buy genuine riedel from a reputable merchant.

If you want proper wine glasses to do all that sniffing and swirling you need ones that are much bigger. Go for the vinum or veritas instead. Riedel says these glasses are dishwasher-safe but that is not accurate!

The stem on this glass is only 2 1/2 inches long. That's not enough to comfortably grasp it under the wide bowl. These are a lovely shape, but are very thin glass and very fragile. They are chunky.

I couldnt believe the way they were so professionally boxed


I would have preferred that the original packaging did not say 34pay 8 get 1234 in huge red letters smack on the front of the box

Competitiveness


These are great for when you want something a bit better than the 1 ikea wine glasses but dont want to pull out something truly expensive


Riedel takes a somewhat condescending attitude toward its ouverture line describing them as 34entry level34 but they will serve...  Read More
