Selecta Whiskey Decanter, 2 Pack

When I received this bottle, I would have rated it as a 4. I love the look of it, and it seems like a real solid and heavy glass. However, after a few months of using it, I've had to knock it down a few stars. Here's why: 1) Since this is my first decanter, I really didn't know much about plastic on the top piece. I figured, how bad could it be? Well, it looks and feels VERY cheap. You can't notice it when it's closed, but when you take the top off all you see is the large plastic stopper and the top piece itself doesn't feel like real glass. Gives you a cheap impression. 2) This thing drips EVERY TIME I pour a drink. What I mean by this is, when I pour a drink, there is ALWAYS a side drip that slides down the bottle. Being it's my nice decanter, I always wipe it off. At first I thought it was just me, but then I asked my wife who brags about her ability to pour anything without spilling it, and the same thing happened to her over and over. I'm sorry, for something that is literally made in order to constantly pour drinks, this is just unacceptable. It's hardly relaxing, and means you have to have a tissue or paper towel ready any time you pour something. While the price is very good, and that's why I originally ordered it, these two reasons above became much more glaring when I saw at least 2-3 decanters at Ross for around the same price (maybe a few dollars more) that had solid glass tops and also looked great. Made me wish I had just bought them there, and skipped this plastic one.
