I really wanted to like these based on the photos and reviews; however upon arrival and inspection I realized just how cheaply made these are. Notches from the mold process are visible along with taiwan stamp on the bottom. Because nothing says Quality like the word Taiwan stamped on the product. This really limits it being a gift.
Additionally, the walls are thinner than another brand I purchased on Amazon earlier this year. These are advertised as 12.5 ounces, which was the selling point for me, but due to the convex bottom, they're only 12 ounces.
I'll keep them, but I'm quite disappointed considering the price.
