- Brochure poorly printed and moldy

To Amazon’s credit, they are shipping a replacement set out immediately.

I’m rating this an averaged 3, 0 for the original suspect set and 5 for the replacement (assuming it’s first quality).

I believe that the double-wall does its purpose in keeping the outside of the cup cool, but that is not a major point to me. The bottom of the glass has a plastic "valve sticker" which looks rather ugly, and the overall design of the cup didn't impress me that much once I hold them in hand (personal opinion here). I ultimately decided to buy an extra pair of $40 (much more expensive) cups. So if you're seriously into espresso-making at home (i.e. you have a real espresso machine such as a Pavoni, Cimbali, and the like) definitely skip these. For the very casual user (i.e. Nespresso pods) they should be fine. Rating: 3 / 5 Pros & Cons:

+ Double wall keeps outside cool

+ Inexpensive

- Bottom plastic “valve sticker” looks ugly

- Not that stylish overall

In a nutshell:

Good enough for pod-espresso users, but for high-end espresso making seek out something better

The double wall keeps me from burning myself when I am retrieving my espresso. They are some type of plastic, which keeps me from breaking them, a bad habit of mine. They were reasonably priced and of very good quality. Rating: 5 / 5 I love these shot glasses. The double wall keeps me from burning myself when I am retrieving my espresso.
