Perfect for hot coffee!
These tumblers raise coffee drinking to a higher level. No more clunky mugs for me! Light as a feather, up to the task, admired by all ... I swear my coffee tastes better since I made the switch.

Surprisingly light weight
The glasses are great, but are surprisingly light weight. More a plastic feel than a glass.

very neat wine glasses
I purchased the 12 oz Pavina tumbler because I wanted something more casual for everyday wine. I really liked its style in the catalog and am very pleased with the four I bought. I don't know if they are dishwasher safe so I'm washing them by hand. They are glass and really, really neat looking. If I see them on sale in the future, I'll get more.

LOVE these glasses!
They're gorgeous - and they don't leave puddles on my tables. What's not to love? I know some people say they're delicate but I use them with the ice cube dispenser on the fridge ALL the time. I've had them for almost 4 years and only had one break so far. They're the best!

SUPER FRAGILE!!!
We are VERY disappointed in these glasses. We bought them last month, and two have already SHATTERED. It did not take much for them to break, either (one was tipped over with very little force). We registered for them online for our wedding, because we thought they would be very nice, and they are--if you just want to put them in the china cabinet. We do not have children, but we will get rid of the rest of the glasses by the time they come along--the glasses are simply too dangerous to have around. We also feel that they are overpriced after using them on a daily basis. BTW... we did check product reviews before buying and realize that anything glass can break. I'm just amazed that it takes so little force to break!

Does not hold 12 ounces
I bought two 12 oz Bodum Pavina glass tumblers at C&B. But they only hold like 10 oz! Has anyone else noticed this? They're double walled. Maybe the outer wall holds 12 oz, but the actual inner wall were the beverage goes is only about 10. And that's filling the tumbler up to the very edge. They are great glasses though.

Love my vino cold
I brought one to try last week. I love my pinot grigio ice cold without the water- down effect. I wash, dry, and put in freezer. No problems yet! My wine stays cold. Going to buy a whole set this week!

Overly Fragile - Break VERY easily
These glasses are very, very fragile. Several were cracked when we received them by mail even though they were very well wrapped. We are very careful with our things and have been even more careful with these glasses but they still break so easily! It has gotten to the point that they are almost unusable unless you consider them semi-disposable because the chances are that they will break within a few uses. They would be wonderful glasses if they were not so fragile.

Good looking alternative
These glasses are a much better looking alternative to similar plastic glasses that don't "sweat".

Better Than Coffee Mugs
Love these glasses! They keep coffee HOT on the inside, yet the outside stays cool to the touch. Hot beverages stay hot longer than any other mug or cup I've ever tried.
But, beware, they will break, especially if packed too tightly in the dishwasher.

Fantastic!
I ordered these glasses (12 oz) for our office. They are absolutely the best glasses I could have chosen! I'm surprised to read all of the reviews stating the problem with the glasses breaking and chipping. We have never had one break or chip in the year since I ordered them! We wash them in the dishwasher, use them for employees and guests, and we could not be more pleased! And not having to worry about condensation is a huge bonus! The are also a great conversation piece!

Nice if you like broken glass bits in your drinks
Registered for these glasses and thought they would be durable as well as nice looking. I got 8 large and 8 small and after a few weeks of normal everyday use, I had about half of them left. If I used the fridge ice dispenser, the ice cubes would shatter the inner glass wall. If you set a glass in the sink and it falls over....another one bites the dust. I have granite counter tops and if we set a glass on the hard surface it would also be potentially fatal. I found myself trying to treat the glasses like fine china for a while until that got old and I went out and picked up a set for the price of about one of these large glasses......still have all 16 of them months later!

Be careful!
These are wonderful glasses, but they break easily. Be careful and buy an extra set because one of them is bound to break someday!

Best glass I didn't know I needed
My boyfriend got these for me as a gift, because I am always drinking iced water. These glasses are great, because the ice melts much slower, and I don't have the problem of condensation on the outside of the glass dripping on everything.

Best looking glasses around :-)
The glasses look far more delicate than they are. Just as long as you don't bash them together in the dishwasher, all is well.
I absolutely love these glasses!

Highly recommended!
I love these! They are beautiful and the unique design is the perfect insulator so the hot tea or iced tea always just feels room temperature to your hand. Also, it is a great conversation piece because people are always asking about them.

Keeps Drinks so Cold
These are some of my favorite glasses - they keep your cool beverages so cold - they really do work great. Be careful if you put them in the dishwasher though because the top of the glasses can chip.

Top Pick for my table
These are my favorite glasses by far. We live in Florida and with the heat and humidity glasses always become slippery and messy with condensation. Plus as an Interior Designer they meet my need for an attractive table accessory. Love them. Have also purchased them for gifts.

Fantastic! (But Fragile)
I absolutely LOVE Bodum's Pavina glasses. It's absolutely true that they completely insulate whether you're drinking something very hot/cold. They are very lightweight, the glass does not sweat, and they look beautiful!! You do need to be careful when dropping ice in them and stirring. Not too careful that you're paranoid, just be aware of how you are handling them. I've only had one break on me from the ice. I have them in the 12 oz and 5 oz sizes. I wish I had them in each size! All Bodum products are fantastic. If you are a coffee drinker, I would strongly recommend Bodum's coffee presses.

While these glasses hold liquids beautifully, they still need to be handled with some care. A few tips:
-gently place ice cubes in the cup, don't drop them. The bottom could break otherwise.
-use a plastic spoon when stirring your drink or you could break the sides of the tumbler.
I still love these glasses despite these things and would buy them for myself or as a gift again.
