Product Description
The Pavina double old fashioned glass is the winner of the European iF Design Award. The Pavina double wall glasses can be use the whole year round. You can use them for your cold drinks in summer and hot drinks in winter. They are made of a very strong but yet light weight glass (borosilicate glass). They can safely go in the dishwasher and microwave. No coaster needed.Bodum's insulated glassware is made from durable Borosilicate glass. Borosilicate glass is a strong heat-resistant glass that weighs less than traditional glassware. Used to make scientific lab glass, borosilicate glass (medical grade glass) is stronger than traditional "soda-lime" glass and can be used for everything from drinkware to cookware. Some people may perceive the glass to be "thin" as they hold it. It is important to understand the difference between borosilicate and soda lime glass. Borosilicate glass doesn't need to be as thick as traditional glass to be just as strong. Borosilicate is simply a different type of glass that is resistant to temperature swings and scratching. Because the particles are held together so tightly, borosilicate glass is dishwasher safe and will not become cloudy over time; you can rest assured that after 100 cycles, the glass will be as clear as the day you bought it. Simply treat it as you would any glass product and it will stand up to every day use. Our insulated, double
Amazon.com Review
With futuristic looks and high-tech construction, Bodum's Pavina drinkware makes an exciting departure from traditional glassmaking. The walls of each vessel are crafted from two layers of clear glass, creating an optical illusion that the liquid is suspended inside. Softening the look, Pavina's shapes feature smooth, rounded silhouettes. The inner wall also curves slightly away from the outer wall for a touch of understated elegance. This set of two double old fashioned/tumbler glasses serves anything from minty mojitos to hot cocoa. Crafted of borosilicate glass, which is also used to make scientific lab equipment, the pair is exceptionally strong, lightweight, and thermal. The two-layer construction also resists heat and prevents condensation, so no matter what temperature the beverage is, the glasses remain comfortable to hold and safe for any tabletop. Winner of the prestigious European IF Design Award, this 9-ounce, scratch-resistant set also goes into the dishwasher and microwave. Mix and match Pavina with the Assam and Canteen lines to stock the bar or dining table with a variety of fun shapes. --Kara Karll Editor's Note: Because the glasses are mouth blown, each one may have slight variations in height, thickness, and weight. Bodum recommends using care when placing ice into the glass to avoid fracturing the inner layer. Do not use metal spoons or place the glass into a crowded dishwasher.

 Excellent quality July 25, 2010
Sharyn S. Rhodes (Baltimore, Md)
I bought these glasses after using similar ones at a bar in D.C. They are beautiful (important to me) and work as they are supposed to. . .they keep things cold or hot without condensation on the table. My husband says it is the perfect beer mug. I have read that these are easily breakable. In the three weeks I have had them, I have been careful not to throw ice into them, (I put the liquid in first) and I am hand washing them to avoid dish-washer collisions. At $15 a glass, I am taking care of them, the same way I would crystal, but I use them all day, every day for ice tea and coffee and I just love them.

I own six of these glasses and use them on an almost daily basis.
Pro: these glasses work exactly as advertised, keeping drinks nice and cold. They are also comfortable to hold and drink from. They are also quite sturdy - I have had two of the glasses after more than a year's constant usage.
Con: the sides are very shallow so it is easy to slosh liquid out of them whilst moving around.
Note: I do not recommend the larger and taller 12 oz. glasses Bodum Assam Double-Wall Cooler/Beer Glass, Set of 2 as they are too fragile.

love the looks, but have concerns July 24, 2010

I love the way these glasses look. The liquid inside seem to float, which makes for a very attractive presentation. I also love that they are so versatile -- they can be used for both hot and cold liquids, and can go into the fridge and microwave.
But I do have concerns about the failure rate of the little plastic valve on the bottom of each glass. The valve regulates the pressure between the two layers of glass.
I ordered 4 sets [a total of 8 glasses]. The first time the glasses were washed, the valve on one of the glasses allowed water to get trapped between the layers of glass. Amazon immediately sent a replacement set, but I encountered the same issue with one glass in the set as well -- water got trapped between the glass layers during first washing. So, out of a total of 10 glasses, 20% failed the first time they were washed.
Bottom line -- as much as I like the concept and the looks, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I'll have no more problems with leakage.

Glasses were delivered on schedule. Glasses work as advertised. They keep the drink colder or warmer with no condensation on the outside of the glass. Great for outside and inside.
