Amazon.com Review
A simple yet highly designed collection, Riedel's H20 barware subtly conveys upscale urban cool. This set of two whisky/double-old fashioned glasses features sleek cylindrical shaping crafted from finely cut, transparent glass. With no distinct base, the sides drop straight from the rim to the bottom with seamless, uninterrupted fluidity. Each glass stands 3-7/8 inches tall and holds 15-1/8 ounces-ample dimensions that give the vessel a spacious yet structural presence to showcase the beverage and ice within. Produced by the world-renowned Austrian glassmaker, the set meets the same exacting standards Riedel requires of all its pieces. Add the other H20 sizes for a versatile, comprehensive collection that complements any modern decor. The glasses are lead free and go safely into the dishwasher. They are made in Bavaria. --Kara Karll

Great Glasses!!! January 27, 2010
Jennifer Cross
I loved these. I bought them for my boyfriend who is a whiskey drinker and he loved them as well...Great Buy!!
Very attractive and fully functional January 14, 2010
Sanjay Mehta (Henderson, NV United States)
The simplicity and beautifully classic lines of these glasses make them very attractive and they have a classy appearance. They seem rather delicate, but have held up to use very well so far. The lead-free crystal ensures that the glasses do not have even the slightest imperfection, and the walls of the glass blend seamlessly into the base making the overall impression very elegant.
I've only used the glasses a few times so far, so I'm not sure about their longevity, and the mixed reviews here about their durability leave me mildly concerned about how long they will last.
I use them primarily for drinking single malt on the rocks and they serve the purpose admirably. The size is perfect for a double shot of scotch over a nice stack of ice. I like them enough to get more to create a nice set, but the price point is a slight deterrent to getting more right now. However, I expect I will get more as soon as an opportunity arises.
I recommend them very highly. I hope you found this review helpful.
Amazing December 5, 2009
K. Stephens (Albuquerque, NM)
These really are remarkable glasses. The way they feel in my hand is what sets them apart from all other glasses--the glass itself is so remarkably thin, that the act of drinking becomes focused more on the drink than on the glass. They are so clear and so simple, you can't help looking at them. Watching ice melt becomes its own pastime. In three years of regular use (including raucous parties and rough dishwasher loadings), the only glass I've broken was inadvertently knocked from my upstairs balcony onto the concrete patio below. This is an excellent glass!

These glasses are simple and great to use.
Dishwasher safe and contemporary.
I never give anything 5 stars unless I get a backrub with it.
Great whiskey glasses May 8, 2008

For drinking whiskey on the rocks, there is no better glass. The thinness of the glass enhances the flavor of the bourbon or scotch served in them.
Because they are thin, they need to be handled carefully when cleaning or filling with ice. I have broken several but consider that to be par for the course.
