Good look, great feel.,

This review is from: Sun's Tea (TM) 20oz Strong Double Wall Thermo Glasses/Tumbler for Beer/Cocktail/Lemonade/Iced Tea, Set of 2 -- free shipping -- just add to the shopping cart
These look exactly like the picture. The description states these are a stronger version of a previous design. I can see if they were thinner, they'd be quite prone to breaking. They have a nice feel to them, the weight gives a solid feel, the double wall is a neat effect and it keeps drinks cool or hot, as advertised. They have a slight look to show they are handmade, but it's subtle. I'd guess the breakability would be that of a simple drinking glass, no more, no less. I really like these glasses and I am buying more.

Exploded,

Had one explode on me. Not sure what happened- I set a spoon in one (gently set it, didn't drop it), and at the instant the metal touched the glass the inner wall gave off a loud concussive POP and exploded. It was kind of cool actually. Everything stayed contained inside the outer wall, so it was easy to clean up. I'm in Denver, so the outside air pressure is likely lower than than the air that was trapped inside these glasses when they were manufactured- I'm guessing that's what gave off the pop.
Anyway, these are indeed heavier than the Bodum glasses, but so far they are breaking for me at exactly the same rate. Also the top rim is very thick, which makes it awkward to drink from. The glass quality isn't that great either- a lot of ripples, and the inner section isn't centered in the outer glass very well.

These insulated glasses are wonderfully designed and surprisingly durable. I bought a set of two last year; my husband drinks out of them daily. We tried these because we wanted to replace our plastic thermal glasses with glass only for health reasons (Google "estrogenic +plastic" to find out why). I'm back, ordering another set of two.
Surprisingly, thermal glasses made of real glass are really hard to find. These are fantastic and in my experience, virtually indestructible. A few months ago, one of the glasses, filled with icewater, slipped out of my husband's hand and fell about 8 inches down to an end table covered with 1/8 inch thick plate glass. Guess what? He chipped the tabletop glass! The drinking glass "bounced" off the tabletop, chipping the edge of the glass tabletop but leaving the drinking glass completely unscathed. These glasses keep your drinks cool and your tabletop dry--no coaster necessary, even in humid Texas summers. These are a real winner--my advice, order 2 sets at once, since they'll ship them both for $4.99. Well worth the money!
