I saw a big problem with spontaneous shattering with these glasses years ago. Which is very alarming. Has anyone of late have this issue?

We've had these for 3-4 weeks and haven't had any issues, even when my 5 year old puts one down very forcefully on the granite countertop!

We have had our glasses for three months without a single broken glass. We put them in the dishwasher too. They have been great so far, and we use them all the time because of the convenient size. I hope this info helps.

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.

I've barely used mine but have heard nothing of this and haven't seen a problem.

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.

Shatter proof glass is a fiction. But these are very durable. Owned 2 years, daily use, broken 1 out of 6. 4 1/2 stars

Mine showed up shattered too, I called Amazon customer service and they sent me a replacement right away, didn't ask for the broken ones to be returned either

I just lost one of the blue sun glass lens. I'm hoping to replace it with a new pair. I got this as a gift last year. Any info you can provide would be great.

I always wash the acrylic glasses by hand, even if they say they are top rack safe. My guess is the cracking is from the dishwasher. I have never had a problem with cracking, unless one gets washed in the dishwasher, by mistake.

I had the same issue, and after I contacted the seller, I was sent a replacement glass. The installation of the new glass is pretty simple. It appears there are several buyers who are experiencing this problem.

The glasses have taken quite a beating for me from rocks, sand, insects. they have not scratched nor cracked. Dust and sand will however creep in through the vents and make riding difficult if the particles are small enough. these are not air tight.

After more than a year of searching I finally found these glasses (on sale) at Macy's. I have used this style of glass as my everyday glasses for over 20 years and was down to only a few left in both the taller and the "rocks" size. In past years Macy's would advertise them a few times a year and they would be available most of the time but recently they were nowhere to be found. The internet presented another problem in availability, priced up to 3 times normal, and orders cancelled. I think the new ones are exactly the same as my originals. I have a very hard time figuring out which are the old ones. I bought 8 new in each size so I won't have to search for a long time.

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.

I would write or call the manufacturer. When I received mine broken, I simply went on amazon and went through a simple return/replacement process. The new ones they sent seemed much more stronger glass

Not shatterproof. Love these glasses but are fragile. Can break from getting ice from door of refrigerator..I love these glasses in spite of it.

I don't have a dishwasher and every one of these glasses has cracked for me. And most did not crack during washing, but rather when I filled them with a drink. For instance, they crack if you put slightly cold tap water in them.

I haven't had that problem. I used them in August at a birthday party and LOVED them! I was soo glad that I had them!!

No, neither of both. Mine were perfect glass (we dropped one on a ceramic floor and it exploded like a light bulb, with real glass splinters), cold outside with hot tea, quite strong except for that episode. I am sorry if you did not get that.

Sorry I can't help you - I gave these glasses as gifts. All I can say is that the receipent was thrilled with them and uses them all the time. In fact I'm thinking of getting them more as a future birthday gift.

I have not had any problems with the plates and bowls chipping or breaking, however I have yet to knock them hard against the faucet or drop them on the floor. They go though a daily routine of moving in and out of the cupboard against other corelle dishes and I do not notice any harm. I am sure I will eventually knock them about, but for now, the plates are as strong as they are lovely, only time will tell. If they are as resilient as my older corelle sets, I will have no worries. Remember that the mugs are not corelle and will break. I hope this helps you.

Well since my arrived exploded in the box with sharp edges, I don't think so. You may not have read my review, but I had this brand in the form of drinking glasses many years ago, dropped one and it literally (yes, I really mean literally) exploded. I had glass pieces on the other side of the room! It was very scary!!
