Bodum double wall glasses are designed to make hot and cold drinks look distinctive while offering a more comfortable way to serve them. The transparent, floating effect suits coffee, tea, cocktails, chilled desserts and even soup, making these glasses appealing for everyday use and entertaining.
However, not every double walled glass cup offers the same capacity, care instructions or practicality. Before buying, UK shoppers should look beyond appearance and check the construction, dimensions and intended use.
A glass can look generously sized but have less usable capacity than expected once filled safely below the rim. For espresso-based drinks, a 250ml glass may be suitable, while larger coffees, iced drinks and cocktails may be more comfortable in a 350ml or 400ml model.
If you regularly serve drinks to guests, also check whether the listing contains two, six or eight glasses. A lower-priced single item may not offer good value when you need a matching set.
Double wall construction is not a complete material specification. Check whether the glasses are made from heat-resistant borosilicate glass, which is used in the Bodum models featured here. Mouth-blown construction and a silicone valve or vent are also important details in these designs.
The air-pressure vent helps equalise pressure between the two glass layers. Without appropriate construction, temperature changes and pressure differences can make double wall glassware less practical for regular use.
A product listing may mention dishwasher, microwave or oven use, but the maximum temperature and care instructions still matter. The featured Bodum models are listed as suitable for these appliances, with different stated oven limits: up to 176°C for CANTEEN and up to 180°C for PAVINA.
Always check the individual product page before placing glassware in an appliance. Avoid sudden temperature changes, inspect glasses for chips or cracks and follow the supplied washing guidance.
Borosilicate glass is the defining material listed for the Bodum CANTEEN and PAVINA ranges. The double wall creates an insulating air gap, helping hot drinks stay hot and cold drinks stay cold for longer than a conventional single-wall glass. It also reduces the amount of condensation that can form on the outside of a chilled drink.
This does not mean the drink remains at its original temperature indefinitely. Room temperature, the starting temperature of the beverage and how often the glass is handled will all affect performance.
Choose the size according to the drinks you serve most often:
The PAVINA 250ml glasses measure approximately 8 × 8 × 8.9cm, while the 350ml version measures approximately 8 × 8 × 11.5cm. The CANTEEN 400ml glasses are approximately 9.5 × 10 × 14.1cm, giving them a taller, larger format.
The listed Bodum PAVINA and CANTEEN models are described as dishwasher-safe glass cups, microwave-safe glasses, freezer-safe and oven-safe within their stated limits. Wash in warm, soapy water before first use, dry thoroughly and either hand-wash or use the dishwasher afterwards.
For longevity, do not use damaged glassware and avoid moving a very hot glass directly into a cold environment. The silicone vent is part of the double wall construction, so handle the glasses carefully and do not attempt to remove it.
The right choice depends on how you drink, serve and store glassware. These options cover smaller households, everyday coffee drinkers and larger gatherings.

We have compiled a complete, real-time list of products that fully satisfy these strict selection criteria and UK safety regulations.
The listed PAVINA and CANTEEN models are designed for hot and cold drinks, including coffee, tea and cocoa. Their double wall construction and borosilicate glass are intended to provide thermal insulation. Allow very hot drinks to cool slightly if required and avoid sudden temperature changes.
The supplied product information lists both the 250ml and 350ml PAVINA glasses as dishwasher-safe, microwave-safe, oven-safe up to 180°C and freezer-safe. Follow the individual product instructions and check each glass for damage before use.
The 250ml PAVINA suits smaller coffees and desserts. The 350ml PAVINA is more versatile for larger coffees, cold brew and cocktails. For generous drinks, soup or chilled desserts, the 400ml CANTEEN offers more capacity. If you entertain regularly, the eight-piece PAVINA set includes both 250ml and 350ml sizes.
