Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Libbey 7 Piece Sangria SetCustomer Review: Functional pitcher set Summary: 5 Stars
Ammendment to orginal review below: on 4/3 (about a month after buying it), the pitcher cracked...Amazon is replacing it, so hopefully it won't crack again. I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt that I got a bad one; if the next one breaks, I'll change my ranking/review:
We bought this Feb. 2008 for $19.99 as part of the buy 3, get 1 free promo. This set comes with a glass pitcher that holds approx. 10 cups (80 oz or 2.5 quarts) and 6 glasses (holds approx. a little more than 1 cup/8 oz).
You can't use boiling water to make iced tea with this and it's NOT dishwasher safe.
We just wanted a glass pitcher (getting rid of all plastic in the house) and the bonus were the glasses. It's a great deal, especially when you see what buying a pitcher a-la-carte costs. What made it an even better deal was combining it with my other needed kitchen item purchases via the amazon "buy 4 for 3" promo.
Ordering tip: if you're going to buy a bunch of items, split them in separate orders and put all the lower priced items together so you can get (at least) one of the more expensive items for free. By doing so, I got one $18 item free, instead of two $3.99 items free. Of course, just make sure both shipments are more than $25 for free S&H. I just made sure I bought some other needed items that weren't part of the promo! These 4-for-3 deals are AWESOME, especially when combined w/ FREE S&H and no sales tax! Way to go Amazon!
Customer Review: Sangria Pitcher and Glass Set..Great Value! Summary: 5 Stars
I can't say enough about this set! I bought it to have around for entertaining company for barbecues, weekends and whatnot. I figured it could be used for everything from Lemonade to Sangria, Iced Tea, or cocktails. This arrived and was packed well, all the pieces were intact with no damage whatsoever. Nice large pitcher, as another reviewer posted, it does have a seam up the front of the pitcher, but it doesn't detract from the pitcher itself. I am very pleased with my purchase and for $19.99 for a pitcher and 6 glasses is a great deal. Several people who have seen mine have mentioned that they plan on purchasing a set.
Customer Review: Love this Sangria set Summary: 5 Stars
I was originally looking for a large glass pitcher to serve lemonade when guests come over. This is such a good find at Amazon and now I used it for every drink that I can serve cold. This set looks great at any party or table setting. The glasswares are not thin like others and sturdy. It is classy and looks a lot better than the plastic containers. It also comes with 6 nicely shaped glasses and sometimes I use them to serve desserts and icecream soda. This is a very versatile glass set and the price is right. I am happy with this purchase and would recommend this product.
Customer Review: Nice glasses! Summary: 4 Stars
I really like the glasses in this set and have received several compliments on them! I use them often for brunches and often serve Italian sodas, mimosas, sangria and juice in these glasses. The pitcher would be much nicer if the seem was not so obvious and uneven. I read the other reviews and thought "how bad could it be?" It is pretty bad, but at this low price I'm okay with it.
Customer Review: Great Set for The Price Summary: 4 Stars
This set is amazing. It feels sturdy and looks pretty for a low, low price. My only compmlaint is that the pitcher is too large for a 1 bottle receipe but too small for a two bottle receipe. I could not fit in two 750ml bottles of wine and add in the right amount of soda water. But no one will really ever complain about the lack of soda water so it isn't really a problem.
