Matin Glass Tea Mug

Very poor quality Teavana, the handle fell off after 3 months. My tea does not stay any warmer in this mug. I love love love the look of it, but it is also hard to hold in my smallish hands. I would not have picked this out for myself as it was a gift. I guess overall it looked good in my tea cabinet.

I bought myself a Matin Mug a couple of weeks ago. I cannot get enough of this cup! It's fun to look at the tea body in this clear-glass-design. The double-wall is also a great feature! The handle is sometimes a little awkward to hold, but that doesn't diminish my love any. As a tea-addicted-barista, you can imagine how much tea and tea-ware I have at home. A must buy!

I like the mug, the size of it, however, this is where it lost me. I just set it in the sink full of water all by itself, it floated to the bottom and cracked. Really? I'm so mad I spent the money on this.

I ordered this glass and was very pleased with it until I barely bumped it against my dining room chair and it cracked. It is definitely not as strong as regular glass. I loved the glass but too flimsy. It did not live up to it's reputation.

I asked for this mug for my birthday. My husband got me a pair of them. While I do really like them, the whole reason that I wanted them was to keep my tea hot longer. I'm not sure they really do that. I find myself wanting to microwave the remaining cool tea(just like in my regular mugs), but I do not want to put this special one in the microwave! So, I have to transfer to another mug to reheat. (don't like to dirty 2 mugs for one cup of tea : ( )
If that is not the primary reason you wanted this mug, then I would say it is a cool mug...go for it.

Originally loved it because it functioned as advertised. However, soon there appeared moisture between the double walled glass construction. Worse still, there is no way to remove it or the ugly, foggy-glass appearance it causes. Water was trapped between the walls and worsened over time. Ended up hating this product and eventually disposed of it..

I find the tea does stay hot for longer in this mug than in my my ceramic mugs and cups. Although that was not a selling point for me. It also makes handling the hot tea safer and more comfortable as the exterior does not get near as hot as normal single wall mugs.

I appreciate my teas in new 'light' seeing their different colors through the clear glass. It is conversation inspiring.

I like its low profile low center of gravity design. It is comfortable to hold. Will not knock over and fits in short kitchen drawers. The 16oz capacity is perfect for me. The 'Cool Touch Tea Strainer' fits in the mug just right as well.

Buy it if you like it. You wont be disappointed.

Wide surface area makes the liquid cool down faster than the double-walled glass would make you think. I keep this cup at work and drink tea/coffee or heat up soups and stews into it. The wide mouth that cools down the beverage makes it a good soup cup.

A bit awkward to hold. the handle is small while the diameter is big so you can't just grab it on the non-handle side (unless you have huge man hands I guess).

Lightweight and distinctive looking.

There is a small hole in the very bottom of the cup that allows the air to expand and contract with out breaking which a good thing. But when flipped upside down in our dishwasher, the water entered the small opening.We still haven't gotten all of the water out.
I love how much tea it hold and it actually does keep the tea warmer longer than the black ceramic teavana mug.

Doesn't keep tea as hot as I thought it would - about the same as a regular teacup. On the plus side, it is a nice big mug. I purchased it to use with my Teavana Perfect TeaMaker
-it's a tight fit, but I make it work.
