Customer Reviews of Luigi Bormioli Gallerie Square Double Old Fashioned Glass, Set of 4
Customer Rating: Summary: Broken twice Comment: The item itself is satisfactory - when not in pieces! I ordered thhis other glasses of the same collection twice, and twice over half of them arrived broken. (The packaging is not apt for shipment of a fragile item: there is no buffer, i.e. foam wrapping or bubble paper, to protect the glasses). Between both orders, I managed to complete 4 of this model, but I still only have only 2 of the other type!!! IDM@email.com Customer Rating: Summary: Glasses Comment: I was so excited to find a square glass! I was starting to wrap them and noticed a sound. Yup, a broken glass and no time to get another set. Customer Rating: Summary: Improper packing results in 4 broken glasses Comment: When the first shipment arrived one could tell by the sound of tinkling glass that there was broken glass in package. In fact, two of the four glasses were smashed. This was due to a almost total lack of packaging material. I notified amazon and shipped the order back. A second order arrived in the same condition as the first, that is, with two broken glasses. I have shipped those back and asked for a refund. Customer Rating: Summary: Poorly Packaged - DO NOT BUY!!! Comment: After reading a review from someone who said their glasses were broken upon delivery, I made the (idiotic) decision to go ahead and risk it b/c I like the looks of them so much. The first shipment didn't even make it to my house as the local UPS center refused delivery. They could obviously hear the broken glass. In my infinite wisdom, I figured the odds were in my favor, so I re-ordered them. Not a good idea! They arrived broken into pieces. The glasses are shipped in cardboard containers, not individually wrapped or anything. There's a tiny bit of bubble wrap around the cardboard boxes, but that doesn't help. Why would they continue shipping like this when they keep breaking?? Amazon took the return easily enough. Still, pain in the rear. Customer Rating: Summary: Square Old Fashioned Glasses Comment: I am happy with the glasses: they are as pictured. The only drawback is that they are heavy. I also had trouble with the shipping. One glass broke in the mail and I had to return all four to get a new shipment. The second shipment had a chip on the rim of one glass, but I didn't want to send them all back and wait for another shipment. More Reviews The Gallerie collection from Luigi Bormioli makes everyday dining and casual entertaining stylish at an affordable price. Designed and crafted in Italy from premium glass, the collection features modern-looking serveware and beverage pieces with classic usability. The pattern's lines are sleek yet welcoming, and its silhouettes are linear with very subtle curves for a striking composure. Primarily clear, Gallerie also includes select colored pieces for beautiful accenting. The square shaping of the Gallerie double old fashioned distinguishes it from more traditional glasses while adding a pleasurable feel in the hand. Streamlined and simple, the piece features a thick sham and slightly flared sides with smoothed corners. The design is handsome on its own or plays well off of the contrasting conical and V-style Gallerie glasses. Completely lead-free, this piece holds 12 ounces and is safe in the dishwasher for easy cleanup. It comes in a set of four. --Emily Bedard Choosing Appliance -> Stainless steel bowls These are the best all purpose bowls for a multitude of applications. Choose a wide range of sizes (be sure to get a large bowl for whipping egg whites and whipped cream). In general, the heavier the bowl, the higher quality. Choosing Appliance -> Shopping Washer When shopping for a new washer, look for a front loading (horizontal-axis) machine. This machine may cost more to buy but uses about a third of the energy and less water than a top-loading machine. With a front loader, you'll also save more on clothes drying, because they remove more water from your clothes during the spin cycle. Look for the Energy Star label. Luigi Bormioli Gallerie Square Double Old Fashioned Glass, Set of 4 Useful info -> How should I decorate my kitchen? What will you choose, paint or wallpaper? Modern emulsion paints are very easy to apply using rollers, brushes or pads. Two coats of a good quality silk finish are recommended for durable cover. If your kitchen front is plain you can liven up the room by choosing patterned wallpaper. A light colour will make your room appear larger. Because kitchens are working rooms where moisture, grease and dust collect choose a wipe clean surface such smooth vinyl. Avoid embossed papers as they accumulate dirt, are hard to clean and easily graze. |
