 Bought a second set September 16, 2008
We liked these metal straws so much that we bought a second set. These are very solid stainless steel straws that should last us a lifetime. I much prefer them over plastic straws.

These really are heavy, shiny, high quality straws, and I have no reluctance to use them for guests. If you like steel, the straws are beautiful. There are small rings etched around the area of the bend, which makes them look like a piece of art, rather than lab equipment. And, they've continued to look great after many trips through the dishwasher.
I bought these so I could stop tossing plastic straws in the trash every week. (I have kids, and they like smoothies.) I would feel guilty for potentially contributing to that mass of plastic swirling in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Now I feel virtuous. Sure, it will take a few years of use for these straws to pay for themselves, but in the meantime, I feel good, my kids remember an important lesson about saving the environment every time they drink a smoothie, and when I have guests, the straws are an instant conversation starter.
