Welcome, and I also recommend Better Bottles. I broke a glass carboy while cleaning it about 10 years ago, and the scar on my hand concurs with my opinion :asshat:

Not only are they break-resistant, they are lighter and easier to move, and have a wider neck so they are easier to get things in and out, like dry hops, oak chips, taking samples for gravity readings, etc.
