Amazon.com Review
What's not to love? These handsome glasses combine great looks with insulating temperature control qualities and anti-condensation protection to boot. Keep your tea hot in the morning and your cocktail cool in the evening with this set of two 7-ounce tumblers. These glasses, like all Bodum Pavina glasses, are hand made and mouth blown, and cleverly feature a two glass walls, trapping air between the walls to provide insulation, keeping hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold. As an added bonus, the dual layers prevent condensation accumulating on the outside of cold drinks and dripping onto your wood tables.

The design is not only functional but adds a striking visual aspect to the containers also: beverages seem to float within the glass due to the double-walled design. This visual appeal is enhanced because the outer layer is shaped like a traditional rounded juice glass, while the inner layer has a more tapered profile. Made of borosilicate glass, the set is dishwasher safe. The design has won several awards and rave reviews, notably the European iF Design Award. Match with any Bodum Pavina glassware, or coordinate with Bodum's other double-walled insulated glassware patterns, Canteen and Assam. --Jeff Dalto

Editor's Note: Because each glass is mouth-blown, each one may have slight differences in height, thickness, and weight. Bodum recommends using care when placing ice into the glass to avoid fracturing the inner layer. You should also avoid using metal spoons or placing the glass into a crowded dishwasher.

1 out of 5 stars Looks pretty, but very disappointing   October 17, 2007
It's been about a little over a month since I purchased a sizable quantity of these glass for home everyday use (assorted sizes, 24 count total), and two glasses have spontaneously cracked on us. Other than using them for everyday-use, we have been very careful with them - they've been washed with a soft sponge, we have a designated space in the cabinet to store them (not stacked), etc. These glasses are just not cut out for everyday use. We have been using the glasses to drink warm (hot chocolate) and cold drinks (iced beverage). Both broken glasses spontaneously cracked at the bottom while it was sitting on the desk holding a drink. At first, I thought someone had accidentally slammed it, but I actually witnessed the spontaneous cracking when the second glass broke.

I am very disappointed with the functionality of the product. I'm a sucker for good designs, but I expect a reasonable level of durability. These glasses have been incredibly sub standard - my cheap ikea glasses I bought for $5/dozen have fared better. Maybe these glasses are meant to be put away in some display case, only to be used for special occasions... but what's the point of buying glasses if you are not going to use them?



5 out of 5 stars Awesome! functional and striking design   May 2, 2005
 5 out of 5 found this review helpful

We just got these glasses and we love them! The double wall provides hot and cold insulation without heat transfer between the layers. You can drink hot tea or coffee while still handling them comfortably, and iced drinks stay cold a long time. My husband and I do not agree on style very often, but we both love the look and feel of these glasses. Highly recommended.
Twenty years from now, these will be considered classics!
