| Customer Reviews:
 home and comercial use November 19, 2008
I first ordered a set of these for a coffee shop I was managing. They are beautiful and adds a real luxury to espresso making. Our customers loved them and the staff loved using them.
I then ordered a set for myself to have at home. I love pulling a shot into them. they are beautiful.
Also, very helpful in teaching staff what a proper shot should look like because you can see the 3 leves of the shot clearly.
Great for Expresso November 18, 2008
Has stood up to the test of time. A bit expensive but worth it. Don't have to worry about burning your fingers anymore.
Our new preferred coffee cups! November 18, 2008
It's all true: they keep things hot (or cold) especially if you pre-warm them); you can prewarm them with water in the microwave (!) and you can chill them in the freezer.
The outside stays warm to the touch no matter how hot or cold the contents are ... if you put them in the freezer, the outside will quickly adjust to your hand.
They do seem fragile, but so far, no breaks.
Oh, and put a little liquid in them and then gently tip them: they don't fall over!!
We've got the 9oz version; we also bought some of their "Double Old Fashioned" glasses, which are also becoming favorites for cold drinks.
We'll be buying more.
Functional aestehetics November 17, 2008
These double wall glasses are a nice addition to my coffeeware. They hold the coffee in an attractive container at a good temperature which does not burn the fingers. Once the coffee cools down just a bit from the brewing process, the temperature holds for a while so the coffee can be enjoyed over 40 or so minutes. The glasses are not very large, so if you are accustomed to drinking a 'standard' coffee (12 oz), buy a larger size.
One reviewer explained that the glassware has a small hole in the bottom which is bad for dishwashing. The Bodum company is no help on how to solve the problem. I would recommend covering the hole during dishwashing or applying a small amount of epoxy to seal it.
Beautiful Cup November 17, 2008
As others have mentioned, this cup is beautiful, and perhaps somewhat fragile. One cracked in the dishwasher after two or three washes. I was able to replace it with easily through Amazon's excellent customer service, and the replacements as well as one original have been holding up just fine for the past couple of months.
