Customer Reviews of Bodum Pavina 2-Ounce Double-Wall Thermo Glasses (Espresso/Shot), Set of 2
Customer Rating:   Summary: Outstanding Product Comment: I just purchased the 2 oz espresso glasses and I love them. They are as beautiful in person as they are in the picture. My personal preference would have been to have them be a bit heaver, something that's heavy strikes me as being quality but nonetheless these look amazing. A hot shot of espresso doesn't permeate the double wall meaning that tasty drink stays hotter longer. Would I purchase again? YES !!!! Customer Rating: Summary: 3 of 8 broke in first year Comment: 3 of 8 of these glasses broke in first year of normal use. very dangerous glasses. Customer Rating: Summary: Love the Idea, the Style, the Look Comment: These glasses are great. They're the most attractive ones I've ever used. This size (9 oz.) is great for coffee, and the show they reveal as the espresso machine is brewing each cup is interesting to say the least. The cups are sturdy, and they work perfectly as insulators against heat and table damage. I love that they don't need handles, so they're very sleek. I do have one problem in that the second set I ordered was about 1/4" shorter than the first, but the volume is still the same, so no stars off for that. I would forgive them worse than that but don't have to. Customer Rating: Summary: Way too fragile Comment: This is for the Bodum Pavina Double-Wall Thermo Glasses 15 oz. The cool factor is undeniable, but please don't get sucked into it, as these things have the thinnest glass walls I have ever seen. I picked up a set of two, and out of the box I saw that one should have wound up in the same place they put three armed sweaters and other "seconds". Bubbles in the glass and the top had a wobble in the circumference so it wasn't quite flat. But I kept them 'cause they were cool. I was using the good one and it got knocked over on the table and broke into a million pieces. I have broken my share of wine glasses, but this was exceptional. For my twenty bucks, I have seconds quality glass that I don't see making it to the spring and a pile of glass fragments. These are certainly not stronger than "normal" glass. Maybe I got a bad batch...YMMV Customer Rating: Summary: Functional But Dainty Comment: All other reviewers have accurately recapped the functionality of these glasses and I am greatly enjoying the "no condensation" feature. The vaunted lightweight-ness of the glass make for a certain awkwardness in use (at least until you get used to them). I had a rather delicate decanter and am using these to compliment it.... all are on a glass tray and, to say the truth, the set was quickly reduced to a visual tableau rather than a daily user!

Choosing Appliance -> Cutting boards There seems to be little difference between hard wood and plastic cutting boards from a safety standpoint, as long as they are properly washed and sanitized after each use. Personally, I like the feel of solid wood. One piece of advice--buy large cutting boards. Don't bother with these tiny boards that everyone seems to have in his or her kitchen. They are not user friendly. Once you get down to serious cutting or chopping, the small boards are always woefully inadequate and downright maddening! Choosing Appliance -> Stainless steel bowls These are the best all purpose bowls for a multitude of applications. Choose a wide range of sizes (be sure to get a large bowl for whipping egg whites and whipped cream). In general, the heavier the bowl, the higher quality.
