Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Bodum Thermo-glass Pavina Double Wall Thermo-Glasses, Set of 2
Customer Review: Beautifully designed, functional, hand-made near-perfection
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered the 9-ounce version six months ago to use with my daily tea and my occasional Scotch. I am happy with my purchase and here it is why:
- The borosilicate glass, besides being strong, is the least likely to be stained by coffee or detergents. Six month later, I can confirm: no stains whatsoever.
- The double-wall design keeps the hot drinks (my tea) hot longer and prevents condensation from forming when holding cold drinks.
- Can pour in very hot drinks without the glass cracking. Not only am I pouring literally near-boiling tea, but the double wall keep the exterior cool.
- Dishwasher safe (but use common sense because even borosilicate glass is still glass). I almost always wash them by hand.
- Hand-made in China.
- Beautiful design.
The only slight disappointment, but I got over it, was the initial 'feel' of the glasses. By just looking at the glasses, you would expect something heavy, crystal like but they are not. It's not surprising, given that the walls are not solid glass but two thin layers of extra-strong glass with air in between. They also don't 'sound' like crystal. So, if the weight and the sound don't bother you, these are great glasses.
I must confess, one of the 2 glasses broke a couple of months ago - someone dropped it - so I was left with only one glass since. I am about to order another pair now, just in case.
Description of Bodum Thermo-glass Pavina Double Wall Thermo-Glasses, Set of 2
The Bodum 7 ounce Pavina double wall glass can be used for cold or warm beverages. Its unique design is appealing to the eye when filled with your favorite beverage. With its double layer of borosilicate glass it appears as though the liquid is 'floating' within the glass. They will not sweat when filled with a cold beverage, so you will not have to use a coaster. The double wall creates a thermal effect, helping to keep your cold drinks cold and your hot drinks hot for longer periods of time. These mouth blown glasses are an exciting product for any home, restaurant, or cafe and they are a definite conversation piece.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.
