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. Borosilicate glass substitutes boron oxide in place of the soda and lime used in traditional glassware. The boron oxide acts as a glue holding the silicate together and due to the small size of boron particles, the glass is held together tighter, resulting in a stronger glass. Some customers may perceive the glass to be ''thin'' as they hold it. It is important to explain 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. Di
What Others Say
great but fragile
My glasses arrived promptly & on a humid day. They were much wider at the top & bigger overall than you'd expect from the picture, but they work as advertised : almost zero condensation even on a humid day. And the ice cubes don't melt for several hours, which is amazing.....Too bad I already lost one thanks to the tail of my Golden Retriever, after my girlfriend set hers down on a coffee table; it quickly broke despite falling about a foot or two onto a carpet.
