Through many technological and financial investments over the years, Bormioli Rocco has grown from a single company into a group of companies and multinational production units. Present in Europe and the United States, Bormioli Rocco continues to expand as a brand leader in the Home and Restaurant market.

Customer Reviews

A little thinner than I imagined3
This was an inexpensive replacement for some similar glasses we had gotten from a more expensive mail-order catalog. The size and feel are right, but they are a bit thinner than the ones we replaced.

Nice glasses, one cracked within a couple of weeks4
These are nice glasses that seem thick and sturdy but one cracked within a week. Have had them for over four months now and all others are fine. These do not have the offical pint emblem on them if that's important to you. But you can drink beer from them just the same....

Quality5
These are very nice. Smoother to the feel than most glassware, also slightly ticker. They clean very nicely, without streaking or marking that can sometimes occur with lesser-quality glassware. They can be stored upsidedown, and stacked on top of each other that way, which is nice. When stacked up to 3 or 4 high, they are sufficiently stable. The capacity is nice, and the "bump" is not only a style feature but also user-friendly, because you can grip right below the "bump" which makes a glass very easy to hold (not that holding a glass is difficult, but you'll see what I mean).
