FAQs

Are these glasses truly unbreakable?

The glasses are made from high-quality MS material and are described as 'virtually unbreakable,' meaning they are highly resistant to shattering from drops and impacts compared to traditional glass, but extreme force could still cause damage.

What is the capacity of each glass?

Each long drink glass has a capacity of 490 ml.

Can these glasses be used for hot beverages?

These glasses are designed for cold beverages. Using them for hot drinks is not recommended and may damage the material or affect its durability.

How many glasses are included in a set?

This product is a set of 2 long drink glasses.

Are they dishwasher safe?

The glasses are easy to clean and suitable for dishwashers, but hand washing with mild soap is often recommended for best long-term care of the material's finish. Always refer to the manufacturer's specific care instructions.

What is the weight of the glasses?

The product description indicates a weight of approximately 0.99 pounds for the set, making each glass quite lightweight for its size and durability.

What does 'MS material' mean?

MS material is a type of plastic (styrene-based polymer) known for its clarity, strength, and durability, often used as an alternative to glass where break resistance is a priority.

Troubleshooting

Glasses appear cloudy after washing.

This can sometimes happen with MS material in dishwashers. Try hand washing with a mild detergent and a soft cloth, or use a rinse aid in your dishwasher. Ensure the dishwasher is not overloaded.

Surface seems dull.

Wipe with a soft, damp cloth and dry thoroughly. For stubborn marks, a very mild, non-abrasive cleaner might be suitable, but test in an inconspicuous area first.

Scratch appears on the surface.

While designed to be scratch-resistant, deep scratches can occur. Gentle buffing with a soft cloth may minimize the appearance of light scratches. Avoid using abrasive cleaning tools.
