Reed & Barton Crystal Set of Double Old Fashions, Set of 4

Sturdy and beautiful. Reasonable in cost. Comes out of the dishwasher perfectly. Perfect weight in your hand and lovely to look at too. I would buy again!

A replacement for a broken Reed & Barton Old Fashion glass I originally purchased in 2015. These appear to be a cheap copy of the original design which featured straight sides, a heavy base and thin lip. The new version has 12 pairs of vertical cuts vs. the original 15 pairs of cuts. This version doesn’t match the quality of the original or the product photos.

I wanted a (single) old fashioned set for mixed drinks (fill one of these up with a genuine margarita and someone's gonna need a ride). Alas, after all the apparent controversy, these are actually double old fashioned glasses. For those who want to know, a single old fashioned glass won't be more than about 3.5" tall and 3" across and have a 7-10 ounce capacity. The ones I received (4) had "Slovania / Reed and Barton," and "Soho/Double Old Fashioned/Slovania/Full Lead Crystal" stickers. They are 3.25in across the top, 4" tall. The glasses have a relatively thick bottom, with relatively thin sides--thinner than the glass rim of a small pickle (and Trader Joe's dijon mustard jar) and about the same thickness as on of my not-so-delicate (glass) wine stems. The outside is straight, the inside wall becomes thicker in proportion to the "cuts" in the glass. I put "cuts" in parentheses because they have been flame-sprayed (I presume) to the point where one might think that the decoration was molded -- not that there are any signs of being molded anywhere in/on the glasses. Nice glass, very clear, sparkly, and without color. I'd definitely buy them for myself or as a gift.

Just bought these glasses for my husband's birthday and we are both very impressed. Each glass is very sturdy and heavy; feels very substantial in your hand. They are well made and look beautiful. I was searching around for scotch glasses, and these seemed to be the best ones in terms of quality and durability. A few other glasses I looked at had complaints that they were so fragile that the glasses broke upon washing. I highly doubt this will happen with these (knock on wood) as they are probably the sturdiest glasses that we own yet. Definitely recommend it!

Researched these glasses among several others online at Amazon and other vendors, and finally chose these because they:1. Seemed to be good quality;2. Got the best reviews as compared to reviews of other glasses I researched, and3. The one comment about them doing well in the dishwasher actually sold me.Now that I have them (bought them as a Father's Day gift for my partner) they are great as they:1. Have nice weight in the hand;2. Look classy when empty and filled;3. "Sort of" match the expensive crystal decanter I bought him for his bourbon, and4. They really do okay in the dishwasher.He loves them and tells me so frequently when he drinks out of them which he also does frequently.Good buy.

quality down graded not the size not the same weight basically its a water down version of the original galas its shame company made this majestic looking glass into a cheap looking regular glass this glass had a royal look with solid heavy base and skinny rim was its beauty all gone its shame

I have purchased these 6-7 times over the past 10 or so years. I liked them because the price point was originally about $11 per glass, but they are now $26 per glass. Aesthetically, they used to be substantial, serious, and classy. However, apparently, to save money, they have redesigned, and, in the process, ruined them. I ordered some last September, and they were fine, but I just got more, and they are just a bit shorter, the crystal is thinner and not as substantial. The base, which used to be a strong measure of their allure, has diminished substantially. All in all, the folks who now own Reed & Barton have ruined a wonderful product. I would expect these at a Dollar store. Don't waste your money on this trash.

The Soho glasses are beautiful, good weight, elegant, and more contemporary in style than the other sets I researched online. I got two sets, and am very happy with them. I am surprised that people are washing them in the dishwasher. My husband scratched one of the glasses the day we opened them - he was trying to stack them to put them in our kitchen closet. Unfortunately, the glass got a one inch scratch down the rim :(. The glasses are definitely handle-with-care, hence the one star off.That said, we got lots of compliments for the glasses. I would buy more pieces from this collection.
