Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Bodum Assam Double-Wall Cooler/Beer Glass, Set of 2
Customer Review: Fantastic Glasses for Beer and Coffee alike
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased one set about six months ago and used them only for drinking beer due to the reviews that these glasses break so easily. I recently purchased another 3 sets for a total of 8 glasses. I was surprised that when the new sets arrived the glass was much thicker then the original set I purchased. The new sets feel much more robust. This could be because the glasses are hand blown so no two are identical. Now that I have 8 I have started to use these everyday and have yet to break one - including drinking my morning coffee. The outside of the cup does not heat up at all. I also always wash them in the dishwasher (I most often break dishes when I wash by hand). Overall the glasses perform great. Hot or cold, the temperature of the liquid is maintained much longer then a normal glass. Also, the outside of the glass does not sweat at all so I often put it right on my wood side table without a coaster. Lastly the glasses look fantastic and are always worth a conversation when I first hand my friends a cold beer that appears to be hovering in space.
Description of Bodum Assam Double-Wall Cooler/Beer Glass, Set of 2
The Bodum Assam double wall cooler/beer glass is 13 ounces in size and 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, and cafe and are a definite conversation piece. Bodum's insulated glassware is made from durable Borosilicate glass. Borosilicate glass is a strong heat-resistant glass traditionally used to make scientific lab glass. Stronger than traditional "soda-lime" glass, borosilicate can be used for everything from drinkware to cookware. Borosilicate glass substitutes boron oxide in place of the soda and lime used in everyday glassware. The boron oxide acts as the glue holding the silicate together. Due to small size of boron particles, the glass is held together tighter, resulting in a stronger, lighter glass. Borosilicate glass doesn't need to be as thick as traditional glass to be just as strong due to the bonding capability boron oxide. 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 resistant to temperature swings, In addition to being dishwasher safe borosilicate will not become cloudy over time; you can rest assured that after 1,000 cycles, the glass will be as clear as the day you bought it.Combining modern materials and clever styling, Bodum's Assam drinkware brings a truly innovative look to the table. The walls of each vessel are actually two layers of clear glass, creating an optical illusion that the liquid is suspended within. Highlighting the dramatic effect, the Assam shape features slightly concave sides that flare out as they reach the smooth, round rim.
This set of two double wall cooler/beer glasses serves frosty ales or hot toddies with equal ease. Crafted from 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 13-ounce, scratch-resistant set goes safely into the dishwasher and microwave. Mix and match Assam with the Pavina and Canteen lines for 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.
