Product Description
These double wall insulated drinking glasses feature a modern design and simple innovation. They keep your hands cool and your coffee or tea hot.
This set of six, twelve (12) ounce, double wall insulated glasses are made from borosilicate, or laboratory glass, which retains heat better than regular glass and resists breaking. Dishwasher and microwave safe. They are perfect for hot coffee, tea, beer, hot chocolate or your favorite cocktail, as well as iced drinks because the double wall insulation prevents condensation on the outside of the glass.
Bodum Air Double wall glasses that breathe - The intelligent silicone plug makes sure that air-pressure between the two layers of glass is always adjusted. Bodum has improved these highly successful double-wall glass by adding a hydrophobic silicone vent at the bottom of each glass that equalizes the air pressure between the two glass layers with the outside air pressure no matter if hot or cold liquids are pured into the glass. This makes for significantly heightened product stability.
The glasses keep hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold for a longer period of time. They are cool to the touch and dont create any condensation water on the outside of the glass, and on your coffee table, we might add. After enhoying cocktails or even soups and desserts, you just put the glasses in the dish washer the vent is only permeable to air not to water.
The air pressure between the two glass layers is constantly equalized with the outside air pressure.

 Cool to the touch, keeps drinks hot or cold December 25, 2009

These glasses are double-walled blown glass. The air space between the layers of borosilicate glass keeps the temperature of the drink from contacting your hand. So hot drinks inside stay hot, but the surface is room temperature; the same applies to a chilled beer or an iced tea. We like to drink hot tea from these glasses. Tea seems to taste better out of a glass and you can admire the amber color as you drink your beverage. Borosilicate glass is like laboratory glass; can be blown thin but it is relatively strong.
A couple of things: for one, these glasses do not go in the dishwasher. They are a bit fragile and more importantly, the heat of the dishwasher can sometimes cause expansion which for a glass of this type can lead to breakage. Better to wash these carefully by hand. Which brings me to my next point; they are rounded and slightly larger than my grip, which is fairly good-sized for a woman. So if you have small hands, this can be slippery when you are washing them in the sink.
I like double-walled glasses so I don't think this is a huge detriment, but you do have to be careful. The insulation factor is pleasant for hot and cold drinks, so it's worth washing these by hand.
Great Glasses January 11, 2010

Keeps your drink hot and your hands cool, or vice-versa, no coasters required! We have both the smaller 9 oz version and recently bought this set. We have had the smaller ones for a number of years and they have only broken when they were dropped, or had something dropped on them. None of the larger ones have broke yet. They are fragile, but not excessively so. If you are reasonably carful you can expect to have them around for a while (in my experience). From the other reviews I am guessing that not all the glasses are equally sturdy (they are hand made) making some break very easily and others last a long time.
 elegant product; delicate but useful July 14, 2009

I first saw this brand for sale at Starbucks. Useful for coffee, milk, juice, beer, chilled wine, highballs, etc. They keep hot drinks hot yet cool to the touch, and cold drinks cold without sweating and ruining tabletops. I _love_ them, and they are already great favorites around the house. Maybe too great...
Already two of these elegant glasses have broken, one en route to my home (which the seller immediately replaced) and one in my sink. However, if you remember that these are hand-blown glass and treat them as carefully as a wine glass, they should be plenty durable. They are perfectly dishwasher safe--I just need to train my family not to toss them in the sink.
