Bodum 8oz Pavina Double Wall Glasses, High Heat Borosilicate Glass, Set of 2, Clear

Hot or cold beverages, microwave, and dishwasher safe. Durability is not bad. I have broken a few though.

Unexpectedly sturdy and great as everyday mugs. I have an old set of smaller espresso-size Bodums from about twenty years ago that I love, but I initially tried to save a few dollars and buy a different brand when I wanted glass mugs. They proved really fragile and not truly dishwasher-safe because of the vent design, so I got these Bodums instead and am really happy I did. They fit well under the spout of my Nespresso Creatista, and they’re perfectly sized for milk coffee drinks and americanos (and they also work great for tea). I use them daily and treat them just like any old ceramic mug in terms of getting bumped around in the sink with other dishes, running through the dishwasher, etc., and they’ve held up great. They also do fine in the microwave and keep my drinks warm for awhile, and the double walls mean no coaster is required. The one-way valve plug in the bottom is a definite functional upgrade from the open hole of my older Bodums, and it’s not really visually noticeable and gives peace of mind when putting them in the dishwasher. Would definitely recommend spending slightly more for this reputable brand with a proven design.

I love these things. Drinking coffee out of one of these glasses is addictive. It stays warm like it's in a stainless tumbler (not quite, but much better than a regular glass) with the sensory feeling of drinking from glass. There are however 2 VERY VERY big caveats to owning these glasses that may be a deal breaker for you. But keep in mind, this applies to ALL double wall glass tumblers. It doesn't apply to plastic or metal ones. 1) They are very delicate. I probably break one every 6 months. 2) They (and all double wall glass cups) need to be hand washed. If that works for you, they are awesome.

I tried these double-wall glasses for the first time a few months ago. They are so great that I wonder where they have been all my life. They are so great that I purchased the double-wall 8 ounce and large coffee mugs as well. They keep hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold for long periods. No ice needed for my iced coffee. I can put my morning coffee in the mug down for a while and it's still hot when I pick it up again. My only complaint is that they are smooth and not as easy to pick up and hold as my etched glasses. So if they can figure out how to make double-wall etched glasses I would appreciate it.

I have used these for over 25 years with very little breakage which has always been due to mishandling. I just placed an order for some replacements as I just accidently knocked one over from my table onto my hardwood floor, and no surprise, it shattered. These glasses are NOT your typical inexpensive 'everyday' drinking glasses. They are fine glassware and need to be treated as such. However, I have never had an issue cleaning them in top rack my dishwasher provided they only touch the rack and NOT other items and are in the proper place so that they are not bounced around during washing. Being made of borosilicate glass they are more resistance to breakage than standard glass but not immune. That is why Bodum recommends never put ice in the glass first as if dropped in, being hard, along with sudden temperature extreme it could result in breakage. When cleaning from things like coffee or tea stains that occur with all glasses, I never use an abrasive powder like Bartenders Friend. Instead, I use something like Bon Ami, as abrasives can scratch glass that can lead to failure. I also use a non-stick scrubbing pad or a special 'brush' for deep glassware, rather than the harsher pads for the same reasons. Obviously, you need good judgement in a party atmosphere where they could suffer abuse or be dropped. The same goes when using them around children or 'adult children'. One Other 'trick' I have in my kitchen, which has hardwood floors is to place soft 'rubber'mats on the floor around counter areas. This not only creates a more comfortable working area for your feet, but it also reduces the likelihood of anything breaking when getting knocked off the counter or fallout out of a cabinet above, including these glasses. That has saved them several times for me as they bounce rather than break. With proper care these glasses have lasted me for many years without issue and could last a lifetime. Some cons about them, is that due to their shape they are easily knocked over if lightly struck near the top. This would be true for any glass of this shape. Since they have smooth sides, they can slip out of hands when wet as would any glass with smooth sides. The glasses are also have no warranty against breakage as their is no way that Bodum can determine if it was due to mishandling. But neather does any other fine glassware such as Waterford. Some reviewer had read made comments about being marketed as 'hand blown'. It actually refers to the manufacturing process which is to attach the chunk molten glass to some kind of a pipe and having air blown through the pipe, sometimes into an external, or sand mold to shape the molten glass into the glass shape. The other more common commercial process is to pour a chunk of molten glass into a 2 part mold that shapes it, and then take the mold apart to remove the the fully forned object. This also leaves an undesirible seam where the parts of the mold met, but is more suitable for mass production. Centuries ago craftsman made glassware by dipping a pipe into a pot of molten glass in the furnace and blew through the pipe turning it and using tools to shape the final piece. This process still used today as a hobby or for limited speciality glass objects. It also comes with a risk of silicosis for the craftsman, a lung disease as it allow glass particles of glass to get into the lungs often resulting in a shorter lifespan. Molten glass is actually never shaped by hand as its molten temperature is 2000°- 3000°F. I sincerly hope that this information can result in informed decision being made for the purchase and handling of this product to achieve satisfaction and a long life of it.

Great home iced latte glass. Light but well constructed. Keeps iced and hot drinks at their ideal temperature for hours. High quality mouth blown glass. As someone who drinks 2-3 small iced lattes a day, these are the perfect form and function. Highly recommend for all iced drink lovers. Update 2 days later after delivery: These glasses are extremely fragile. A drying empty glass fell over on my countertop and the whole glass broke. So a simple knock over is at high risk of breaking these glasses. Therefore I would only recommend these with soft surfaces and will generally not travel. 4/5.

Bodum glassware is my favorite coffee, tea, any hot beverage vessel. I purchased this set as a gift for a family member who loves making cappuccino. They are extremely light weight, durably strong. They fit nicely in the hand. Outside glass never gets hot and the contents stay hotter longer. The glasses are perfect for espresso, cappuccinos or any drink that has layers. Dishwasher safe! I have cups that over 10 years old and they look as new as day one.

One can find cheaper double wall glasses on independent websites and also Amazon. But the Bodums have a little silicone valve that, for me, make paying the higher price well worth it. Cheaper glasses that have a hole only will eventually pick up dishwasher liquid between the walls. And those without holes at all might shatter in the microwave. So money no object, go for the Bodums. I use the 300 ml ones when I do a pourover of 12 g coffee to 200 ml water. I use 18 g and 300 ml water for the larger Bodum glasses. I still gave these 5 stars for durability because, well, any glass can be broken so that is just something that is what it is. Here are some notes on coffee making I prepared for a friend or two: Baratza Virtuoso Plus. 12 and 20 and 24. 16:1. 200ml. Thus, 12 grams coffee for the test. A1. So here is my method for every new bag of coffee I buy. Even if it is the same coffee that I’ve previously purchased. Example: at a local HEB I/we ound some Cuvée Coffee in the clearance section with a good reduced price of only 5 bucks, so I had to buy and try. When I got home, the first thing I did was call my friend in all things coffee, Jay (or Ubi, depending on which of us is reposting this lol), to bring the bag over to try with his coffee set up. Baratza grinder and various extraction methods. And then, it was to pop a couple of coffee beans in my mouth and chew them to check to see if the coffee was already going into the dead flavor, old stage. Now the bag had said that the expiration date was December 2021. However in tasting the beans I could tell that most of the flavor had already been lost. These were older beans than I/we am/are used to, normally buying/purchasing from our local roasters, whose coffee was probably was roasted within the past 3 to 5 days. Now for this particular set up. With a Baratza Virtuoso Plus grinder, I/we grind 12 g at 10, 16, and 22 grind settings. I/we then extract each with 200 mL of water, allowed them to cool a bit and then taste them to see which of the grind sizesis resulted in the most flavorful, flavor profile of coffee. Alternatively, could have done this without a filter but just cupping them as per SCAA standards. Today we used a Chemex but we also could have done it with other methods as we have quite a few between the two of us. A2. Every coffee bag you buy will be different. Here is what you need to do in my opinion. You are going to make three different coffee samples and taste test each one. Try a grind setting on your Baratza of 16, 20, and 26 and a 16:1 coffee to water ratio at each. Use Crystal Geyser water for each extraction. Taste and decide which you like best. Crystal Geyser is available at the Dollar Store. You can test with 12 grams to 200 ml of water in each cup, or, 18 grams to 300 ml of water in each cup. B. Additional comment to someone else that I saved: Does your coffee grinder have several settings? The reason I am asking is that, whenever I get a new bag of coffee, I grind 18 grams each at my Baratza's 12, 18 and 24 settings. I then use 300 ml of water for each. I reuse the paper filter, just rinse it off and reuse it. I then taste test each grind. For consistency, I use Crystal Geyser water that I pick up at the Dollar Tree. In many case a finer grind tastes better. You are trying to find that perfect point between sour and bitter. You may find that you want to change the standard SCAA 16:1` ratio. Some coffees, I even go up to a 19.4:1 ratio. Others, I determine that a 10:1 ratio is the best. Each coffee will be different. Even coffee from the same estate, harvested in spring versus fall. It's just the way it is. And then, you have to contend with the roast and how the roaster did the roasting. Pop a couple of coffee beans in your mouth and chew them. That should give you an idea of what coffee flavors are dominant. Spit out the coffee, though, don't swallow it. Additional note: Now, Baratza publishes a recommended grind size when the Virtuoso Plus ships. 8 for espresso, 12 for Aeropress, 15 for Hario, 18 for Autobrewers, 20 for Chemex, 28 for French Press. C. Chemex says 1 tablespoon per 5 ounces of water. That isn't precise enough for me. When I bring in a new bag of coffee, I do three grind sizes of 12 grams each. A finer, a medium and a slightly more coarse ( on my Baratza, a 10, 20 and 24). I extract with 200 grams of boiling water, allow them to cool to 125 F and then taste each to decide which grind size or somewhere in between I will use for that bag of coffee." C2. Bitterness shouldn’t be your red flag for grinding too fine, astringency should be. Start out at a grind size you know is far too coarse, and move finer until you get a feeling of dryness in your mouth from the coffee. James Hoffmann says, if sour, go finer. If bitter, go coarser.

Buen material y lindos.

Son muy bonitos, yo solo los ocupo para bebidas frias y mantienen la temperatura por más tiempo en comparación con otros vasos que tengo "tradicionales". Ampliamente recomendados!

High quality

Excelente marca!!! Recomendo a todos!!!

Products are ok but it wasn’t Bodum!!
