Is the glass on these thin? would you consider them fragile?

They are not fragile. I've broken only one out of a dozen. 4 ft drop to concrete. Easily as sturdy as any glass of like size. Slightly heavier in my opinion. Hold the cold like crazy.

They are double glass, so not thin, I like them. BUT we dropped one of them and it sorta' blew up on us--made a terrible noise, but did not throw glass around..

They are much sturdier than they look. I broke one when I knocked it over on a tile counter.

No, not at all. If anything, some people might consider them too thick. I like mine very, very much.

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.

Being glass, I can't say they are shatter "proof" but they are pretty heavy so I'm sure they could take a little beating.

We have used these Glasses every day, & have had no problem with them either breaking or Shattering. Have dropped them on a hard surface & so far still have all that we started with.

It's very thick glass, all around. There aren't any delicate thin parts. I doubt it would survive a drop to the floor (tho it might, it seems pretty sturdy), but it could probably handle bumping on the table, etc., without a crack. Hope I've helped! Love mine!

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-

If used as a toy, sure they will eventually get broken. They arrived from China on UPS without being destroyed and my son loves having them on display in his room, but does not use them as toys r throw them around. They aren't glass, which is great just in case one did end up breaking somehow. I think they are a plastic resin, which looks great and creates the accurate look to them.

Hi, mine are clear and I love them, haven't broken one yet but we rarely brake glasses or dishes, although my brother who has the same told me they're very hard to break even if they fall on the floor, hope this helps you!

No they do NOT have a thin rim. The glasses are made with quite heavy crystal. I like them. They feel sturdy in your hand but are elegant looking. Had mine for at least 6 months now. They go in and out of the dishwasher and look great. Hope this helps.

These are lovely glasses but are somewhat delicate. I would not attempt to stack them as they tend to break easily.

Yes, they are glass, and definitely NOT shatter proof. They are pretty substantial, (not super thin glass) and have never had a problem with them breaking in the dishwasher.

I hadn't heard there was supposed to be a problem. I haven't had any issues with it. No, the glass is not flimsy.

If you mean tough glass, no. It's not extremely lightweight but it's not very thick

Depends on ur weather climate...but I would say no the glass is too fragile for harsh weather.

I can see them being fragile if you just drop them after a set, but if you use proper form and place them down somewhat gently, they are fine. There is also a one-year (I think) warranty. I can't comment on the injuries. I haven't experienced any but I am not an expert in that area.

Yes they are and they are wonderful. Just don't drop! They are real glass.................. It is like an emery board that NEVER wears out!!!

i have had mine for a few months now, the glass does seem thin but I have had no problem, I have banged it against a pan more than once. I do love the look
