Stainless Steel Champagne Flutes Set of 2 - Unbreakable Reusable Champagne Glasses - Metal Flutes for Indoor & Outdoor Use, Weddings, Parties & Gifts by Zokani

I’ve been using this stainless steel champagne flute for a while now, and honestly, I’m impressed. It hasn’t so much as dented, let alone broken. That’s a huge upgrade from the glass ones I used to have, which never survived even one accidental bump. Another thing I appreciate: it keeps drinks cooler for longer, so your champagne or prosecco doesn’t go warm halfway through your toast. It’s easy to clean, looks sleek, and you never have to worry about shattered glass at a picnic or on your deck. Bottom line: this is a great buy if you want something durable and stylish. I’d absolutely recommend it to anyone tired of fragile glasses. Five stars from me.

When I originally acquired this, it was such a good value I thought I’d ‘take a chance’ just to see how well it was made. I’ll give you the punchline early: I ordered a second one. My partner is a master at shattering glass, and those containing alcohol even more so. I ribbed them about getting this, but after we received it we were both sufficiently impressed to make it a matching set. The polish is excellent, they’re durable, sanitary, and while they seem to sweat a little more than glass with cold liquids, it’s not really a big deal and somehow seems to enhance the effects of the stainless anyways. A great option. We’re now looking to see if we can find other style variants, too (e.g., martini, margarita, red wine, etc.)

Unbreakable.

I really enjoy bubbly wines, but my flutes always succumb to breakage, and then my bubbly gets relegated to a regular wine glass, and you know that’s not a proper vessel for any kind of bubbly! This flute is beautiful! Seems well made. The bottom won’t screw off the stem and the shine is amazing. I notice no aftertaste like I did with my parents’ old metal martini glasses. This flute takes me back to that era though, while being a vessel with modern, new twist: No aftertaste from the metal. This is now my flute. I will take it when I travel and I will enjoy a glass of bubbly whenever I like, because this flute will not break as all my glass ones I’ve lost before. I love this flute and wish it had come in a set of two!

This is definitely a novelty product, and not something to go for if you actually want good champagne flutes. I weirdly like it though? So, cons first - Price: At time of writing, these are $6.99 each. You can buy a glass champagne flute (full size - 9.5oz) at World Market for the same price, and as a purely functional object it will be better. If you start looking at sets (especially of roughly comparable 6oz flutes), you can get significantly cheaper. Weight: It's not heavy, it's just weirdly weighted. Topheavy even when empty, and VERY topheavy when full. Makes it weird to pick up and drink from. Neutral points - Size: It tells you in the description, this holds 5.7oz. (Although you can get 6oz in pouring to about half an inch below the rim, and still pick it up without spilling.) Champagne flutes are usually somewhere between 6 and 10oz, and most of them seem to be 9 or 9.5oz. So this is on the smaller side, but the description is not deceptive about that. Stability: As noted in cons, it's weirdly topheavy, and awkward to pick up. But it's surprisingly stable sitting on a flat surface given the weighting. Not actually sure how it manages that. But I was expecting it to tip over at the slightest nudge, and it doesn't. Still worse than a glass one in that respect, but not miles worse. Pros - Novelty: Yeah, it's a gimmick. But you could engrave this and send it home with me from a wedding and I'd be super on board with it. Even without engraving, I'd be on board with it, especially if it meant not using those crappy plastic flutes for the evening. Shiny! Honestly, I think this is the biggest point in its favour. I wish I was kidding, but apparently I am 37 crows in a human suit, and I just really like that it's shiny. I know it's worse than a glass one. But I like it. Because it's shiny.

If you want to let your inner medieval lord/lady and toast friends and foes with mighty strength while still drinking the refined nectar coming from Champagne, this flute will protect your bubbles for sure. Base of the flute is wide enough to provide lot of stability while the flute itself is of normal size. The outside of the flute is polished/smoothed while the inside still displays the mark of machinery so it may or may not be good for the bubbles circulation. I am still on the fence for that one. There were some marks also on the stem but it's minimal and right at the edge where the flute/body meets the stem so when it's in your hand, you won't see any. Now, I should have realized it was just one flute. I need to order another one for proper, equal, robust toasting.

What I like - attractive cup, well made. It's a nice item to have . . . and I'd love to have a set of eight. What I don't like - Here is the title of the ad: "Stainless Steel Champagne Flutes- Reusable Indoor and Outdoor Champagne Flute- Unbreakable Toasting Champagne Glasses- Wedding Champagne Flutes- Elegant Drinking Glasses- Champagne Flutes by Cookway". Notice the plural. FLUTES. GLASSES. Each time I read the ad, I wondered how many were being sold. The price was good - $6.99 each with a 50% coupon, so it's not a bad price even for one glass, but it sure wasn't obvious. I ordered it. It came. One. One FluteS. One GlassES. Plural ad, singular delivery. So that was my biggest question - if it's plural, how many are there? The answer was that it's not plural at all. One item only. I hope that helps anyone hoping to obtain a set of these to know what to expect and how many to order.
