This set of copper cups will TRULY last you
the rest of your life. The craftsmanship is
amazing. Having said that, a word to the
wise. If you order this set, ask Penguin Magic
to examine them before they are shipped. I only
gave 3 stars because mine arrived STUCK together.
By the time I was able to get them apart, one had a
large ding in it, and another was scratched pretty bad
on the top, just trying to get the protective paper unstuck
from off of the cup. But, if you can inquire about these
problems in advance, these are truly worth the money!!

Got the cups in the mail the other day. For $125 I'm quite pleased so far. They are made in China (based on the "leaflet" that came in the box.) so if you're not into buying overseas...
However. The weight of the cups is fantastic. They are VERY solid. They're spun copper and look great. The crocheted balls (4) are very well made. Tight stitching and quality feel. The velvet bag is also well made and stretches a bit which will most likely accommodate a 4th cup (chop cup) which I'm already looking forward to purchasing. The set also came with a set of 4 mini tennis balls which, while cool, have various flaws, mainly with the rubber line that curves around the length of the ball (the line on one of them is much wider) Don't know if the audience would be able to tell the difference but just wanted to point it out. The cups will hold a regulation tennis ball, lemon, lime I even fit a live animal in there! (kidding)

These are an excellent set of cups and balls. They are larger than the penguin cups. I have posted a review of these cups and compared them with the penguin cups on YouTube. I highly recommend you watch it so you can see if you want these Cups or the penguin cups.

If you are looking for a set of cups, but not looking to pay a premium price , these cups are a good set to get. The cups are high quality copper and are sturdy enough to handle the street and rough moves. They also offer a matching chop cup that is sold separately. I'm very satisfied with my order. You can easily fit smaller lemon/lime sized loads under the cups and they can fill at table or close up pad well.

The sheer beauty and weight of this set makes it a pleasure to work with. It comes with four red balls and four miniature tennis balls (for the obvious final load). If you get a PFD Chop Cup you can easily slip it into this set and add a little more magic. The only problem I had was once I received it the paper around the cups had stuck in a couple of spots, so it took some very careful work to get it all off and not damage the set. Also, the cups are rather smalls and can only accommodate a tennis ball or small fruit for the final load. That being said, the bright green of the tennis ball really pops when the cup is pulled off as it doesn't look like it should fit. If you are looking for a one-time purchase of a set to last you forever, this is one to consider.

I was very excited to receive my new set of cups and balls in the mail today! However, that excitement quickly turned to utter disappointment when I stacked/nested the cups. They stick and wobble worse than any other set I’ve owned! They are nice looking cups, but a waste of my hard earned money, as I bought them for performing. VERY disappointed in this set and Penguin Magic should perform a quality check before sending them to a customer. Would NOT recommend this set to anyone who actually performs for a living.

I have been performing cups and balls for over 25 years and wanted another set that I can perform with. For the price you pay, your getting top quality cups. You also get two sets of balls, red crochet ones and mini tennis balls. You won't regret it.

Nice weight. Nice size. Nice appearance. Only down side is finding the small tennis balls for purchase separately.
