Have had some amazing results. No cracking problems
Cons
None Yet!

Have followed directions (side fire) explicitly. Could be top firing cause breakage?

Great clear glass... Absolutely my favorite!
Cons
There are no cons!

Pros
I ordered various sizes of double bevels based on a couple of reviews here. These are, hands down, the most beautiful bevels I've ever seen. I'm now spoiled on doubles of any size, for sure. Each size I ordered were perfectly cut and sized with very nice edges. They sparkle so brightly and look fabulous. I highly recommend ordering any type of double bevel from Delphi. You won't be disappointed.
Cons
None
Other Thoughts
Would love to see Delphi begin selling some mitered corner pieces in the double bevel style as I don't think they currently offer them (just in single bevels).
Pros
I love the aventurine glass when it melts and this frit did not let me down. I'm making glass knobs for my kitchen and the aventurine green combined with amber and yellow looks awesome. The closer the green is to the top, the better because the shine is beautiful.
Cons
can't think of any
Other Thoughts
Pros
I don't know how I lived without these. I love using the grozer side to nibble away at the edge of glass whenever it breaks wrong or I cut it a little too big.
Cons
Tends to fling shards of glass in every direction. You might want to wear glasses with these.
Other Thoughts
Pros
I'm tempted to say this makes a nicer score than my previous Toyo cutter. It feels comfortable in my hand.
Cons
I've never had problems with it leaking oil out the end where you fill it, but it deposits a LOT of oil during cutting, which makes a slippery mess for my fingers.
Other Thoughts
Pros
In addition to the dramatic wavy texture this gives to tack fusing, the green/magenta blue color does just what it says. You end up with undulating streaks of pinky purple accented with lime green and blue. Great visual complexity!
Cons
Like all ripple glass, it's hard to cut and hard to stack other glass on top of.
Other Thoughts
Pros
My mom used one of these in tack fusing and ended up with a gorgeous, no-fuss pendant that was quickly snatched up by a customer.
Cons
The circle developed a cracked, overcooked look
in the kiln (maybe because the circles are for "microwave" use?)
Other Thoughts
Pros
If you love cool tones, you will love the purples, blues, and greens that characterize this glass. Overall, I'd say you should expect darker hues than those pictured--think teal-tinged hunter green, deepest purple, and ultramarine. It fuses to a smooth, sparkly finish that's just nuanced enough to keep me reaching for it again and again. A basic with just the right amount of oomph.

Pros
Having seen what I thought were cabs capped in this on the CBS website, I first decided to fused this on top of black without a clear cap. Ick! But since then, I've tried this other ways and fallen in love with it. It adds terrific texture to tack fusing, especially when you pair it with a reed/fibroid and an untextured dichro at the same time. It also looks attractive inside a full-fused cab, though the resulting effect is pretty much the same as the crazing of DichroMagic glasses.
Cons
The texture is quite fine, not the rocky, chunky texture the greatly enlarged pictures imply.
Other Thoughts
Pros
When you get this glass, it looks absolutely red with a silver sheen, but don't worry--it fuses to a gorgeous shimmery aqua! Pendants made of cabs featuring this glass sell like crazy.
Cons

Pros
This is one of my favorite dichros. It fuses to a silver sheen with hints of purple, blue and green. Because it's so nuanced, it looks great with almost everything else in my stash, especially cool tones.
Cons
Other Thoughts
Pros
This looks especially great with purple and green dichro. It's pretty true to the picture, maybe a touch less purple. I like it both for tack-fusing and as the bottom layer in cabs.
