These glasses are super lightweight, around 7oz, which is half of what a ceramic mug of the same capacity weighs, thanks to the thinness of the borosilicate glass. The bottom is completely flat and sealed and inside you can see the Mr. Coffee logo printed on the glass inside the air gap, so the lettering can’t be scraped or washed off. The glasses don't stack well, so I generally don’t recommend storing them this way as it may increase the risk of breakage. Instead, I like to store mine upside down in my cabinets. One thing to note is that you should only used wooden or plastic utensils inside the glass if you need to stir its contents, as metal ones could chip or shatter them. Gibson’s care and maintenance guide indicates that these are hand wash only and not microwave or oven safe, which makes sense because of the sealed air gap. You can pour or make hot beverages like coffee, tea, and espresso drinks directly in the glassware as the tempered glass is highly resistant to thermal shock. The capacity, when filled to the brim is 16oz or two cups. Because the design is double-walled with an air gap in between the layers, the outside of the cup stays a comfortable temperature to the touch. Even when the contents are very hot, the outside is just a little bit warm, and the insulation will keep the drink hot for about 30 minutes. Similarly, with iced beverages, the outside gets a bit cool and won’t sweat with condensation on a humid day, and this beverage will stay cold for about an hour. Overall, these coffee mugs are a great addition to our drink ware collection. They’re lightweight, have a large capacity, and help keep our hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold. Just remember to hand wash and don’t use metal utensils in them. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases Amazon Affiliate Product Link: https://geni.us/1pJsI5U
