My bee cups are great, and had them for over a year now and I have no problem with hot liquids, and I always use room temperature with the cups when pouring hot liquids. You may consider exchanging the cups for another set, as sometimes, the manufacturing process is not perfect.

Have not had a problem with any La Rochere product - not cracking, no chipping. I love mine!

I have had these for several years with no mishaps. I suppose there is always a possibility of a manufacturing issue with a single cup; but I don't think you need to be concerned about them in general.

I have never put warm beverages in mine personally but I am sure you could! Its pretty durable. I think warmer rather than scolding hot! The cup probably wouldn't keep the beverage warm for very long but would be able to take the heat for a short period.

The coffee is hot enough. I had two of these units fail on me, however. (Which is too bad because I really liked them while they worked.)

I have the same question - am wondering if you can put hot beverages in it without the glass breaking?

I could not use the cups because the inside of the cups were broken. You must be careful in handling. i was very disappointed in product. But worth the the money. Be careful.

I have not heated coffee in the cups but I have reheated using the plates and they do not get hot. I think the cups may as they are thinner than a coffee mug.

Either the coffee is already cooled offm or you haven't got the milk hot enough. Quick test if milk is hot enough is to lightly touch the side of the stesming cup if it is too hot to touch it's hot enough.

Hi Victoria: I delayed answering your email because I wanted to be 100% sure I was correct. I went home and made a pot of (Mountian Blue) coffee. I filled it up to 5 cups - on the glass carafe it was just a tad under the max line and not a drop spilled. So short answer your pot is defective :(

Nope. I thought it would be okay based on comments here, but after a week it shattered when adding hot water.

yes recently cold weather,I could hear a cracking sound when I poured hot water in carafe.(plastic version)The Bodum was next to the window.Then when I pressed the plunger harder it would release coffee and grounds through these cracks.This is not on website or on their literature.I feel this is substandard and potentially dangerous product.

I wouldn't purchase this. I have purchased two of them at different times because one just stopped working. Several months later after the 2nd purchase, the same thing happened. It just simply stopped working. I have been very careful with how I wash the cups. Still I don't think this is worth it.

I sent this coffee maker back..it leaks water or coffee all over..I read this in the comments and bought it anyway. They were right and I should have taken them seriously. Not having the coffee maker anymore I can't advise on the cup but I will warn u against buying it.. A word to the wise should be sufficient.

I've only used the cup for cold beverages. I would contact the manufacturer concerning its ability to withstand a hot beverage. I love the metal contigo coffee/tea (travel) containers.

Was there a waranty I didn't notice it's an $8 plastic cup the crackles you see are what happens to the glue they used to stick the two shells together. I'm still using the two cups I bought last year or so with these same cracks. As long as the seam doesn't start leaking water inbetween the two shells I would keep using it. They're still a good unbreakable insulating cup for hot liquids. (Bispiferol secretions in polypropylene plastics notwithstanding )

that didnt happen to mine. i didnt soak it long. but that really shouldnt happen to any mug.

I put it in the microwave for up to 3 minutes and had no problem. But someone said not to use it in the microwave because that could disturb the gas between the walls of this cup, causing it to shatter... Mine broke, I think, because someone 'dropped' an ice cube in it. I loved the cup but have mixed feeling about buying another one.

I would guess, yes, I had it to hot coffee. I contacted the company directly about mixing it with a hot liquid and they responded within a day.
