Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Luminarc Working Glass 21 oz w/Red Lid, Set of 4
Customer Review: Terrific Glasses!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I can't say enough good things about these glasses. I love the size and shape of them and have owned the mixed sizes (21 oz and 14 oz) for over 20 years. They are thick, heavy and sturdy....practically indestructible. They also have a wide bottom which makes them extremely difficult to knock over and spill. Finally, they have an extra large capacity (21 oz) which means fewer trips required for refills.
I like to keep a large glass of water (complete with lots of ice) near me all the time since I drink it frequently. This is the only glass I've found that I like for that purpose. The largest size I've been able to find from other manufacturers is a puny (by comparison) 16 oz capacity for their large glasses and only about 10-12 oz (or less) capacity for their smaller or "juice" glasses. By comparison, the smaller, juice size version of these "Working Glasses" (listed elsewhere on Amazon) is a designated 14 oz but you can actually get 15 oz of liquid in them and still be below the rim. That makes the small size "Working Glass" almost as large as most other manufacturers' LARGE size.
After scouring the drink-ware market looking for additional ones for the past few years (including reviewing other manufacturers' catalogs looking for similar ones), I have found nothing even close to them in quality, capacity and utility on the market. I was thrilled to find them still available here on Amazon but I would add one caveat or warning.
My older sets all have "Luminarc" and "500" stamped on the bottoms of the glasses but these newer ones have nothing marked on the bottoms. For that reason, I've been unable to determine whether they are really manufactured by Luminarc (they still may very well be) or are copies made by someone else.
Other than the lack of labeling on the bottom, these are identical to my older glasses in all other respects (size, shape, weight, feel, etc) however. I simply don't know yet if they will have the same durability and resistance to scratches as my older ones (I guess only time will tell). That lack of certainty about the manufacturer is the *ONLY* reason I have given a rating of 4 stars instead of 5 for this item.
Update: After doing some investigation with customer service and other sources, I discovered that the glasses I received were manufactured in the USA by Arc International, which is Luminarc's parent company. Based upon that, I raised my review from 4 to 5 stars.
