Bodum Pavina 9 Ounce Double Wall Thermo Glasses
We love these glasses for white wine. They look great and keep the wine cooler. It was a very easy transaction and the glasses arrived when promised.
my favorite coffee "mug"
Never thought I'd use a glass to drink coffee from. But these have turned out to work wonderfully for that. They keep the coffee hot much longer than a regular cup or mug, & because of the well designed rim & no condensation I don't really need a coaster- &, they are beautiful.
Good review, but terrible packaging
Add myself to the list of people that like this basic product (I've bought these two other times from brick and mortar retailers), but am frustrated by Amazon's inability to deliver these intact.
I ordered these and some Bodum Bistro coffee mugs. Both were packed in a cardboard box with virtually no packing material. Considering the glasses themselves are protected only by a single layer of bubble wrap, I'm not surprised that upon receiving my box, I could already hear the tinkling sound of broken glass.
I'd like to be able to buy these from Amazon, but until they can start packing fragile items properly, I'll have to stick with B+M retailres.
Just My Cup of Tea
Actually, I should say "my cup of coffee," because that's what I pourinto these luminescent, doubled walls cups, but that expression has not found its way into the lexicon. Besides, these glasses/cups don't have the "coffee feeling" of the Bodum mugs (for example, the Bodum latte cups) which also feature a handle.
BREAKAGE--Not Yet a Problem.
However, because of numerous (and vociferous) complaints about how easily Bodum coffee glasses break, I chose these. My housemate here (i.e., spouse) has used these for well over a year, with nary a crack or unsightly buildup through the tiny hole at the bottom of these blown-glass Bodums.

Beautiful and cheap....but be careful with them..
I will make this simple. The glassware has so far been able to hand water with ice, and scalding hot espresso. I cannot feel the temperature on the outside of the class. It has only fogged slightly on the inside.
I have not had any leaks like some people. Only downside is it feels very thing, and I can see it breaking in the future. I have held wine glasses that were not as thin and fragile feeling as these. But it is something EVERY person has said in the reviews, and I would only suggest being very careful with these.
Pro: Beautiful, cheap, and sophisticated
Con: It feels very fragile, and I don't want to break it.
