Buy six if
- You host dinners for four to six and want everyone in the same glass.
- You already own a pair and know you can live with crystal this thin.
- You want spares for a table of four or five. Mouth-blown crystal breaks, and a spare on the shelf ends the worry.
Buy two first if
- You have never held a Zalto. Start with the set of 2.
- The six are for everyday use and the dishwasher. For that, Schott Zwiesel Tritan survives both the courier and the dishwasher.

Questions about the Zalto set of 6
Is a Zalto set of 6 worth it?
If you already own Zalto and like it, yes: six covers a dinner for four to six, with a spare. If you have never used Zalto, buy a pair first.
How much does a Zalto set of 6 cost?
The price moves often, so check today's price on the Amazon listing. Per glass, a six-pack is not always cheaper than a pair, so buy six when you want six.
Universal or Burgundy for a set of 6?
The Universal for a mixed dinner, because one glass carries you from sparkling to red. The Burgundy only if the table drinks mostly Pinot Noir or other delicate reds.
