Product Insights
The Monochrome Glass With Straw from Simons Maison is a 10 CAD borosilicate glass tumbler that resists thermal shock, chemicals, and staining while fitting standard car cup holders. Its solid, even finish in colors like a muted reddish-brown (Copper/Rust) and an assorted surprise option add variety. The glass body is microwave-safe, but the lid and straw require hand-washing to prevent warping and etching, and the lid only reduces splashes—leaks if tipped through the straw opening, making careful use necessary.
- Care
Borosilicate glass resists high heat and chemicals, but lid and straw require hand-wash care.
Why this is supported
The glass body is borosilicate and generally microwave-safe, but the product also has a plastic lid and glass straw. As noted:
The glass itself is borosilicate, which is generally microwave-safe [3], but this tumbler has a plastic lid and glass straw, and is labeled hand-wash only.
Is the glass microwave-safe for heating beverages?Hand-washing is advised to avoid damage:
Following the hand-wash instruction protects the plastic lid from heat-induced warping and the glass straw from etching or chipping in dishwasher cycles, preserving the lid's snug fit and the straw's smooth rim longer than machine washing would.
Plastic lid and glass straw practicality — hand_wash_longevity- Heat tolerance
Glass body handles boiling liquids and rapid temperature changes.
Why this is supported
The borosilicate glass has a very low thermal expansion coefficient —
about one-third that of ordinary soda–lime glass
en.wikipedia.org— allowing it to resist thermal shock. It also withstands continuous temperatures
around 230°C for most formulations
safekitchn.com, and its laboratory-grade heritage is confirmed by its specification as
borosilicate glasses, which may be used for laboratory equipment

- Microwave
Glass body is microwave-safe; lid and straw are not.
Why this is supported
The borosilicate glass itself is generally microwave-safe, but
We do not recommend microwaving the whole unit to avoid damaging the lid and straw.
Is the glass microwave-safe for heating beverages?because the plastic lid and glass straw are not heat-resistant.
- Dishwasher safety
Dishwasher heat can damage the lid and straw; hand wash only.
Why this is supported
Dishwasher cycles can cause
heat-induced warping and the glass straw from etching or chipping
Plastic lid and glass straw practicality — hand_wash_longevity, so hand-washing is required to maintain the lid's fit and the straw's smooth rim.
- Chemical resistance
Glass resists absorbing beverage residues; stays clear and odor-free.
Why this is supported
The borosilicate glass achieves the highest chemical resistance ratings:
Hydrolytic Class (ISO 719) HGB 1 Acid Class (DIN 12 116) S 1 Alkali Class (ISO 695) A 2
borosil.com. This means it will not absorb coffee oils, citrus acids, or other beverage residues, keeping the tumbler clear and odor-free.
- Hand-wash
Hand-washing prevents lid warping and straw etching, preserving their fit and finish.
Why this is supported
Dishwasher heat can warp the plastic lid and etch the glass straw; hand-washing preserves the lid's snug fit and the straw's smooth rim, consistent with the tumbler's intended use as a stationary glass.
- Leak resistance
Lid prevents splashes but not spills; tipping leaks through the straw opening.
Why this is supported
The plastic lid functions as a splash guard, not a full seal.
it is not intended to seal the tumbler for travel or inverted storage, so a tipped cup will leak through the straw opening.
Plastic lid and glass straw practicality — plastic_lid_splash_designThis confirms the lid is suitable for tabletop use, not for carrying.
- Straw clarity
Borosilicate glass straw resists clouding, staining, and odors.
Why this is supported
The borosilicate glass straw maintains its optical clarity over time due to its material properties. One source states:
Optical Clarity: It maintains superior transparency and does not “cloud” over time or after repeated dishwasher cycles.
elhousewares.comAdditionally, its chemical resistance is confirmed by test classifications:
Hydrolytic Class (ISO 719) HGB 1 Acid Class (DIN 12 116) S 1 Alkali Class (ISO 695) A 2
borosil.comThis ensures the straw resists stains and flavor retention.
- Copper/Rust tone
Copper/Rust is muted reddish-brown (#944747), leaning rust over copper.
Why this is supported
A product Q&A response describes the Copper/Rust variant as
The Copper/Rust variant is a medium-dark reddish-brown (hex #944747), with a warm tone that leans more towards rust than bright copper [5].
What is the exact shade of the Copper/Rust variant—is it more copper or rust-colored?This verifies the specific hue and confirms it leans rust over copper, giving the glass a muted, earthy look.

ca.pinterest.com- Finish
Colors have a solid, even finish with no gradient.
Why this is supported
Deep research comparing the product to other Simons Maison glassware confirms that the Monochrome Glass uses a completely even, solid colour wash without gradients, distinguishing it from the Pink Gradient Textured Glasses Set.
- Assorted surprise
Assorted option picks a random color, surprising the recipient.
Why this is supported
The 'Assorted' color option bypasses selection and delivers a random colour, adding a lighthearted surprise for buyers, particularly gift-givers.
- Cup holder fit
3-inch base fits standard car cup holders.
Why this is supported
The product's base diameter of 3 inches (7 cm) fits within the typical 3–3.5 inch car cup holder range. An official Q&A confirms:
Yes, the tumbler has a 3-inch (7 cm) diameter base, which fits most standard car cup holders (typically 3–3.5 inches). It should fit securely in a cup holder without issue.
Does the glass fit in standard car cup holders (e.g., 3-inch diameter base)?This makes it suitable for commuting.
- Lid seal
Snap-on lid reduces splashes but leaks if tipped.
Why this is supported
The snap-on plastic lid is designed to reduce splashes and keep the straw upright during stationary use but does not create a travel seal. As stated:
it is not intended to seal the tumbler for travel or inverted storage, so a tipped cup will leak through the straw opening.

, indicating high resistance to acidic beverages like coffee and tea.
The borosilicate glass used in this tumbler is highly durable.
Furthermore, the glass can withstand high heat without softening:
The hand-wash requirement is solely to protect the lid and straw, not the glass itself.
- Daily use
Lid reduces splashes and tumbler fits cup holders, but it leaks if tipped and isn't microwave-safe.
Why this is supported
The snap-on plastic lid is designed to cut down on splashes and keep the straw upright during casual sipping at a desk or table.
The snap-on plastic lid is engineered to cut down on splashes and keep the straw upright during casual sipping at a desk or table — it is not intended to seal the tumbler for travel or inverted storage, so a tipped cup will leak through the straw opening.
