CRACKS AFTER 1 WEEK
The glasses did not stand up to regular use. They started cracking and leaking after only 1 - 2 weeks of use. We washed them once or twice in the top rack of the dishwasher as we have done for more than a year with other plastic glasses than did not crack..

Too little, too late
Interesting to see reviews now, I purchased when this item was new... 8 in both sizes! First impression right out of the box was NEGATIVE as the color of the cups varied from smokey grey to clear. Probably 45% clear with color issues for the rest. (pics available) As others reviewed, no dishwasher warning at first (top rack only recommendation), so all the clear colored ones eventually cracked on the weak point in the center of the bottom of the glasses. Tossed all 16 in the trash within 3 months.

Great buy
These glasses are light weight and sturdy, nice size. I really really like these. I bought these glasses to use when the clumsy people I love come over for a visit (wink). We all have people and family that always manage to break a glasses. These glasses are made for them and they look great.

Good on paper
There look great, but have proven to be less than ideal. All of my cups have cracks and crazing after only a month of use, and I've had to throw away two of the six because they dripped. Disappointing all around.

Love them!
I got four of these and four of the smaller tumblers. I like the clean lines and light weight. I have washed these in the dishwasher on the top rack a couple times and they came out looking just fine! I hope that is the case for a while. I have had acrylic glasses in the past that did the crackling thing, so I will probably try to handwash these as much as I can to keep them looking good as long as I can.

Should be called disposable
After one wash on the top rack of the dishwasher the acrylic coolers have hair line cracks all over them. My husband and I love our Marta glasses from cb2 (if you are ok with glass the Marta glasses are highly recommended!) so we thought these acrylics would be a great substitute for our summer patio time.
Consumers beware of this seasons acrylic coolers

Not dishwasher safe
LOVE these glasses but the are now ruined after one wash in the dishwasher (how can one avoid rinseaid???). They are crazed (little lines all over) and cracked and won't hold up to to many more washing without completely breaking. Very disappointed.

Glasses started cracking after several washes
I was so excited when I found these acrylic glasses that were dishwasher-safe. However, after washing them in the dishwasher, ofcourse in the top-rack, it started cracking on the sides after several washes. I was very dissapointed since I loved the design of these glasses.

nice glasses!
I ordered a few of these to test them - love acrylic glasses as I have ceramic tile floors in my house and little kids so glass is a problem. However, even allegedly good quality "dishwasher safe" acrylic glasses crack and become discolored after a few washings in the dishwasher. These are surprisingly THIN but thus far have fared well with repeated washings. I love their shape - so far, so good!
