There is no shortage of workers cups at my house but I would still like another set. I've haven't heard any bad things about Cellini Cups. Could you guys please chime in your opinions. I have Gazzo's and Millers(and others). I want something in between . I like the severe taper of these cups as I think this would make laods look bigger. Let me know what you think . I especially want to hear from you guys who have worked the these cups in a range of arenas.
God's grace rocks! It makes a good cups and balls routine look pretty boring in comparison.

I've used these cups a lot and I like them a lot.
So far, they are my favorites.
They are not perfect cups, however.

They wobble some due to the taper.
They are advertised to "take a baseball" but they won't take all baseballs.
You must shop for one that fits. They only take one ball on top.

I like them a lot.

Some pros:
They tip back nicely with a wand.
There is a matching chop cup available.
They "take a baseball" (see above).
Not too expensive.
Thick, durable copper.
The taper allows someone with smaller hands to grip the cup more easily during the vernon ball load sequence, and have a cup that still "takes a baseball".

The competitors for me would be
The Gary animal babes (which also "take a baseball") but they have a very flat saddle which I don't like.

I love both overall, though.

I've not used any other jumbo type cups so I have nothing else to say on the subject based on experience.

The taper allows you to toss one up, rotating and catch it in another cup ala juggling if you're into that. I had a set but someone else wanted them BADLY so I let go of them. Kinda wish I still had 'em.

Frank's assessment covers it fairly well.

Pete,
I still have the one set I bought from you when you helped raise some funds for Dean after his accident. While they would be greaty missed from the Pete Biro cabinet I built to display cups I've recieved from you, I'm sure we could work something out like some Bananas for the cups Smile
