Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Bodum Pavina Double-Wall Insulated 12-Ounce Glasses, Set of 6
Customer Review: Great glasses, EXTREMELY fragile; watch when shipping
Summary: 3 Stars
I have a set of these glasses. I love them. They work well, i.e., they keep hot liquids hotter longer and cold ones colder longer. I also treat them with the delicacy that they deserve. As others have mentioned, they're very fragile - as fragile as fine wine glasses - and ideally should be hand-washed. You'll also not want to set them under an ice dispenser, as the rims are easily cracked, and you'll want to use a spoon in them with care.
Another different yet equally important issue, though, is that shipping these glasses can be tricky, as I learned the hard way when attempting to ship a set to family. I am assuming that the temperature extremes caused them, because of the layer of air trapped in between that serves as the insulator, to shatter during shipment. The two well-packed and protected boxes that they arrived in were intact, but the glasses themselves were in tiny pieces.
Again, this is just an assumption based on deduction, but I'd be willing to bet that it was a shipping temperature issue. I will attempt to contact Bodum to learn whether they've had complaints about this.
Bottom line: buy them for yourself, and if they're a gift have them shipped locally only. MN to WA in December = disaster.
Description of Bodum Pavina Double-Wall Insulated 12-Ounce Glasses, Set of 6
The bodum pavina double wall glasses are individually handmade by expert artisans. Because this glass is mouth-blown, each one may have slight differences in height, thickness and weight. These glasses will help to keep hot drinks warmer and cool drinks cooler, while also protecting your hand from excessive heat or condensation. Because they are double wall, they don't sweat, eliminating the need for a coaster. Liquids appear to be floating on air. Use them as wine glasses to keep you hands from transferring heat to the wine. For warm beverages and optimal heat retention, pre-heat the glass before adding hot liquids. Dishwasher and microwave safe. Please use care when placing ice into the glass to avoid fracturing the inner layer. We suggest adding the liquid first and then the ice. Please also avoid using metal spoons or placing the glass into a crowded dishwasher.Mixed Drinkware Sets
