    I had EXACTLY the same experience as dingdongmerrily - the bottom came off and it was also a clean break. Luckily my DH escaped injury, but someone could have been hurt, especially if I think my DD could have been standing nearby. I haven't complained yet but be warned, these glasses seem to be rubbish.

    Surprisingly, same thing happened to me 2 days ago, bottom fell off without any warning, a clean break too. No one was hurt luckily, so that makes 3 of us.

    Did you put metal spoons in the glasses while you were pouring the water in? I've had glasses break when I've made hot drinks in them before and a friend told me to put a metal spoon in to absorb some of the heat.
