How sturdy are these glasses? Would they hold up to the occasional drop/knock over? I'm looking for sturdy all around drink glasses.

They're pretty darn sturdy so far... good thick walls. Not the heaviest I've had, but close.

I bought these glasses in order to use 9 of them as glasses and break one for a video assignment in an art class. I hit this glass hard with a hammer twice and couldn't break it. Totally ruined my project, but to answer your questions, these glasses are damn sturdy.

They're pretty sturdy. About the same quality that I used to use behind the bar. But they're still glass. Even behind the bar they break.

So far I have had no problem but with all blown glass there can be issues so use care.....I really like my set and they are sturdier than they feel. As long as you set them down on a padded surface or a napkin.

I believe so... we have dropped these into the sink and even the floor twice and they bounced around and did not break or chip. With the abuse these glasses take and the fact that none of them are chipped makes me think they are tempered - at the very least they are quite tough.

We have had them for about six months with no breakage. My kids aren't too rough but they aren't gentle either. They play with them regularly and there hasn't been a single issue, even with the ones my five year old has. I would say they are pretty sturdy.

Sturdy-- yes. Run them over with a car? No. The weak point on this headset is at the swivel joint where the speaker housing meets with the frame on either side-- that is to say, I had a pair break because I tried to pull them apart too far. They are plastic and can break. Still, they have held up fine to drops, and a few times when the cord has caught my foot and they held up fine. They work amazingly well as a headset-- probably not so well as a football.

They are pretty sturdy, I've been having mine for a few months now and love it. A tight fit. Now, it's not real thick, and real think, either. but as long as you don't eat with them you will be fine.

These glasses are somewhat stackable-- if you look at their shape--I think that you are taking a chance of breakage -as the glass is thinI have been using these glasses for more than 6 months and they are holding up beautifully-

Mine were like that as well. Reading some of the other reviews, this seems to be the norm. My mugs are super sturdy and none of them have broke because of the seam/"crack".

I also saw the reviews that said the glasses could break spontaneously and was concerned. I decided to take a chance as the reviews were several years old. So far I have had no problems and the glasses have been great. They stack nicely in the cupboard. I have had 1 break but it hit the side of the sink so it was not due to spontaneous shattering. Hope you have the same experience if you decide to buy them.

Yes they are very sturdy. We use them all the time. Watch movies and eat our meals.

The glasses are of average thickness. Not like the high end stuff, but still workable. There also not that heavy. They are just average drinking glasses.

Dear Davis; To answer your question the best I can: well 'kinda', (Sorry to be so vague). The where purchased for my parents. They are sturdy, yes, I guess I'd refer to them as sturdy. After receiving them, I would certainly buy them again. I hope this helps. If you would like further information, please don't hesitate to ask.

No.........would not recommend. technically yes.........but wouldn't trust them not breaking. Love the glasses though.

These true "glassware" and as such I would not stack them the way I would plastic "glasses." I haven not tried to stack them, but would be concerned about them breaking, sticking together, or falling over.

They are made of glass. I don't think they'd take any significant impact without breaking.

They are really strong but as most things will tell you and the previous reviewer can attest to they are fragile. If they're not going to be hit directly they definitely would suit your purpose. They don't FEEL fragile but if you let them even into each other they can break.

They have held up great. Very sturdy and durable. I actually purchased to additional ones.
