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.

Reviews
love the colorJoanthese are a great color...a very soft green. sturdy glasses but still look pretty. so nice...bought some more
Juice glassesRobinThese sturdy little juice glasses are exactly what I was looking for! They’re the perfect size for little hands to hold, or for when you want only a small amount of
liquid.
Glasses shatter out of nowhereChristinaWe’ve gotten the same glass set in the smaller size and have been going great for years. But we recently bought these larger glasses and have already had two glasses just randomly shatter while drying both faced down and faced upright. They were hand washed with close to room temperature water and have never been put in a microwave or dishwasher. We loved our glass set but don’t feel safe buying them from ikea again.
GreatTerrieLove them
Exploded on me and cut my hands and thighsYoujungI was holding a cup and it just exploded into pieces. I was sitting on the couch so the glass shards landed on me and cut me. I'd leave a photo if there was an option to. Do NOT buy!
A few weeks prior, another cup had shattered in my dishwasher. I realize now it was the design of the cup and not my dishwasher.
DANGEROUS LisaThese drinking glasses spontaneously explode (not an exaggeration) without any warning. Bought 8, 2 exploded in the first month. I threw the rest out
Spontaneously combustKameelaThese have spontaneously combusted 3 times. This time while I was drinking and I now have glass embedded in my skin and bleeding. Terrible product and incredibly unsafe. I wasn't using them in any weird way either, just drinking plain water. The others exploded just sitting there.
Dangerous! Spontaneously exploding glass!BrittanyI'm currently nursing a big old puncture wound on my index finger thanks to these glasses. I bought six and within the course of the year all 6 have broken, mostly during washing. Two of them shattered spontaneously in the drying rack leaving shards of glass all over my house. Thankfully my young children and pets were not harmed. The very last one broke in my dishwasher. I cut my finger real bad trying to clean out the dishwasher filter. Honestly, I'm not sure I'll be shopping at IKEA anymore. This issue has apparently been ongoing for several years and nothing seems to be happening about it.
Glasses randomly explode! Do not buy!MikHorrible quality. The other reviews are true. The glasses randomly explode. We had one just shattered sitting on a counter randomly. These are defective and surprised that IKEA is still selling them given they can be a safety hazard!
Stylish and SturdyStevenGreat everyday glasses that will last.
Exploding glassesMakalaIt's true. These glasses will randomly explode of their own volition. I've had two break just from sitting on the counter and suddenly the bottom shatters and theres water and glass dust everywhere. At first I thought I was losing control of my telekenetic powers and projecting angry thoughts onto the glass triggering a powerful physical reaction. But I guess it was just poor quality control from Ikea. Got them from the Tampa store in July 2025.
ExplodedBrandyOne exploded while sitting on a counter, very scary. Had to throw the others away.
Strong and pretty!AndreaNot too big, not too small and definitely not a bar glass…elegant and sturdy…
Spontaneously breakJacobThese glasses look really cute however over the course of a few months we have lost three of them to spontaneous breakage. One was in the dishwasher and broke during a wash cycle the other two have broken while sitting on a countertop or in the sink, presumably because of leftover sugars from juice or something? Would not recommend especially if you have kids.
GreatCaitlinPerfect. Super price. Love the style. Couldn't be better
Shattered Spontaneously EmilyWe've had these less than a year and several of them have spontaneously shattered either in the sink or dishwasher! Luckily no one was harmed. I wouldn't get these, or any of the other colors!
Glass explodedTylerHad these glasses for 2 years and one just randomly exploded my kitchen counter. I will throwing the rest of these aways. Didn't think the exploding allegations were true but I stand corrected.
GLASSES EXPLODED DO NOT BUY Anonymous reviewerOnly owned these for a few days and they exploded once in my lap while drinking water & the other time on the counter randomly. According to other reviews this is a COMMON occurrence with these glasses & they are DANGEROUS. Do not buy!! Will spontaneously combust and explode!
Vardagen Glassware DavidAttractive and functional
Fab glasses, cheap glassEdithLoved these, enjoy the green ones, but lost one to the difference between hot rinse water in a sink and fridge cold water from a pitcher! Family member picked it up from dish rack, placed on counter, poured in water from fridge and bottom popped off. No extreme heat, just sink v fridge. Caution!

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.
