A glass that gets hot on the outside, leaves condensation on the table or becomes difficult to clean after a few weeks offers little convenience. With double-wall glasses, it is therefore not just about a modern floating effect. The material, capacity, care requirements and intended use all determine whether a set is right for your household.
The double wall looks stylish, but on its own it says nothing about quality. Always check which material has been used and whether the manufacturer provides information about heat resistance. Borosilicate glass is often used for thermal glasses because of its stated resistance to changes in temperature. This does not mean that every glass can withstand a sudden change from boiling hot to ice-cold.
An espresso does not make much sense in a 450ml glass, while a large latte can be awkward in a small espresso glass. So pay attention to the capacity:
The stated capacity is usually the total volume. In practice, you do not fill a glass to the brim. Allow space for milk foam, ice cubes or comfortable drinking.
Double-wall thermal glasses can reduce condensation on the outside, but they are still susceptible to coffee residue, limescale and fingerprints. Check whether the glasses are dishwasher-safe and whether there are any restrictions regarding microwave, oven or freezer use. For some models, hand washing is recommended even if dishwasher use is technically possible.
Borosilicate glasses are lightweight and used for both hot and cold drinks. For the Bodum models in this selection, the manufacturer states that the glass is mouth-blown and heat-resistant. According to Bodum’s own information, the double wall and a silicone valve help regulate the temperature between the layers of glass. This can make the outside more comfortable to hold and help limit condensation on the surface.
Always follow the instructions for the specific model. For example, do not pour boiling water into an ice-cold glass, and do not place a hot glass directly into cold water. Check the glass for cracks, chips or deep scratches before use.
A smooth, cylindrical glass is easy to stack, but may feel slippery when used for cold drinks. A twisted outer wall, as found on some PAVINA PARIS models, can provide extra grip. A handle is particularly practical for hot coffee, tea and lattes. Do bear your available cupboard space in mind: double-wall glasses with handles often take up more room.
A silicone valve or opening at the bottom helps regulate the air pressure between the two layers of glass. This component should not be removed or damaged. Also check the product information for:
Do not use an abrasive sponge or harsh cleaning product. For glasses with a decorative outer wall, hand washing can help keep them looking their best for longer.

We have put together a complete, up-to-date list of products that fully meet these strict selection criteria and the applicable European safety regulations.
That depends on the specific model and the manufacturer’s instructions. Heat-resistant borosilicate glass is designed to withstand temperature differences, but thermal shock should be avoided. Allow a cold glass to reach room temperature first and check the maximum temperature in the product information.
The double wall limits heat transfer to the outside. According to Bodum’s own product information, the models keep hot drinks at their temperature for longer. The result also depends on the starting temperature, the amount of drink, the surroundings and whether you have rinsed the glass with warm water beforehand.
Some models are dishwasher-safe, including several Bodum glasses in this selection. Always check the individual product page. Place glasses carefully in the dishwasher, prevent them from coming into contact with hard objects and inspect them regularly for damage.
