The VARDAGEN products are designed to turn differences into similarities. Like the eggcup. “We did it in a shape that it’s more like a very small dip bowl,” explains Ina. “So it’s also for Asian eating, you know the bowl where you put chili paste and other condiments.” Another bowl has just the right size and shape to be a rice bowl in Asia, but it can also be used as a side-salad or cereal bowl.
Life’s a party, but most days are pretty ordinary. Make the most of them by serving warm or cold beverages in this simple, timeless series made of tempered glass.

HappyAnonymous reviewerValue for money
Great sturdy glassesAnonymous reviewerI bought these as I had bought a set a few years ago and they have lasted well and still look good.
Stylish perfect sizeAnonymous reviewerWash great none of mine chipped yet
Easy to holdAnonymous reviewerThese are brilliant and easy to hold if you've got small hands like me. Also the glasses hold a decent amount of liquid.
DangerousAnonymous reviewerHave bought a few times this year and they keep breaking. Figured they were loaded wrong in the dishwasher or knocked etc. but the last few have just spontaneously just exploded whilst sitting on the table. Glass everywhere and kids scared! Reading the other 1* comments I can see it's not just us. I understand loads are sold but clearly there is an issue. IKEA you need to sort this out before someone gets badly injured.
or the price point, they feel like good value.Anonymous reviewerWe picked up a set of drinking glasses recently and, while the store experience wasn’t the smoothest, we went ahead and placed the order. The delivery arrived safely, and the glasses look great for everyday use. They’re sturdy, good size, and work perfectly for water and other drinks. I’d say Ikea is still a reliable option if you’re looking for simple, practical glassware.

Brilliant thingAnonymous reviewerBrilliant thing, brilliant service, thank you
Sturdy stacking glassesAnonymous reviewerWas looking for a good set of stacking drinking glasses to make my cupboards tidier and fit more in; these stack really well and are a good thickness. Dishwasher easily in top drawer, and are a good size glass (we prefer bigger glasses in our house for juice). Design is basic but makes it easy to grip and stops glasses getting stuck together.
Not good Anonymous reviewerThis is the only set of glasses I’ve ever had where all of them have decided at a time of being used to just shatter with or without having fluid in them
Great size, sturdy, pleasing fluted/ribbed designAnonymous reviewerGreat weight and thick glass, pleasing design elevates this drinking glass
My favorite water glassesAnonymous reviewerI've bought these several times now and continue to be pleased with them. The size is just right, they hold up to heavy wear, and they are attractive.
Good purchase Anonymous reviewerLove this product, highly recommend

Great ValueAnonymous reviewerWhilst buying something else I saw these glasses at a great price they are great value.

Excellent valueAnonymous reviewerGreat glasses for adding interest to your table. Look good and great size too.
Lovely colourAnonymous reviewerThese look excellent on the table, the 'old glass' colour is gorgeous and they are tough and thick enough for me not to worry about when my boys use them. Good price as usual.

Story
Designing for the tastes of people around the world
Do you sometimes cook dishes from other cultures? Then you’re part of an international trend called transculturalism. It basically means that global cooking and eating habits are a lot more similar than you may think. How can we cater for this trend? We designed the VARDAGEN series with products that can be used in multiple ways. In Swedish, VARDAGEN means “every day”, which is just how the products are meant to be used, no matter where you live.
“Consumers have access to cultural diversity in cooking and eating from all over the world,” explains Ina Tidbeck Sjöblom, who helped create the products. “They want to taste the best of all cultures, which means that it’s not only in Asia that we need eating products for sushi.”
Creating products for all our differences (and similarities)
Answering the global demand for durability
VARDAGEN is uniquely suited to the global market—catering to the different needs of eaters. One thing people all over the world seem to agree on is the importance of durability. “We know from all the studies and research we do that people don’t want to buy and throw away things, they want to buy something that lasts,” says Ina. That’s why VARDAGEN is made from durable and sustainable materials, like glass, porcelain and stainless steel. That means, just like the name VARDAGEN suggests, they’ll be useful every day for many days to come.
