HOMBERKING Glass Cups 8pcs Set review

Have you been looking for a versatile, cute, and sturdy glass set that works for iced coffee, cocktails, beer, and gifting?

First impressions

I unboxed the HOMBERKING Glass Cups with Silicone Lids 8pcs Set, 20oz Glass Cups with Straws, Beer Glasses, Iced Coffee Cups, Cute Tumbler Cup with Cleaning Brushes, Ideal for Cocktail, Tea, Gift, Pink and my first reaction was how nicely everything was packaged. The set feels thoughtful: the glasses are individually wrapped and the silicone lids and straws are organized so I could see what I had at a glance.

What’s in the box

I like knowing exactly what I get, and this set is generous for the price and purpose. It includes eight can-shaped borosilicate glass cups, eight silicone lids, eight reusable glass straws, and two cleaning brushes — everything a household needs for beverages or a small gathering.

Detailed contents

I opened each item and checked it against the packaging list. Every piece was present and the straws had protective film inside the package as noted, so I had to remove that film before first use.

I created a compact breakdown so I could quickly reference dimensions, capacity, and other key facts. The table below summarizes the specifications I found most useful.

Design and aesthetics

I like the can-shaped look because it’s casual but stylish — it works at a backyard BBQ as well as for everyday iced coffee. The clear borosilicate glass shows layers of drink colors nicely and the pink lids give a playful pop that makes the set feel more gift-worthy.

Size and feel

At about 20 oz, each cup is sizable without being bulky in my hands. The height and diameter make them comfortable to hold and they fit well in most standard cup holders and refrigerator doors.

Material and temperature performance

One of the reasons I was interested in this set is the borosilicate glass construction. Borosilicate is tougher than ordinary soda-lime glass and handles rapid temperature changes better, which I appreciated when I used these cups for both hot tea and iced drinks.

Temperature range in practical terms

The manufacturer states a range from -4°F to 752°F; I used them straight from the freezer for iced cocktails and also warmed one in the microwave for tea (without the lid) and had no issues. I always removed the silicone lid before microwaving; the recommendation to keep lids out of microwave/oven is important for longevity.

Lids and straw system

The silicone lids are a highlight because they reduce spills and look cute with the pink color. Each lid has a round hole in the top for the glass straw and a silicone ring on the underside that helps seal the rim to reduce leaks from tilting.

Leak resistance and practicality

I tested a tilted glass and found the seal reduces obvious drips, though it’s not 100% proof if the cup is upside down — that would be unrealistic expectation for this design. The lid is convenient for outdoor use, reducing bugs and debris entry while allowing the straw to sit in place.

Cleaning and maintenance

I appreciated that the glasses are dishwasher safe and crystal clear, which makes it easy to see stains while washing. The two curved cleaning brushes are really useful for the glass straws — they twist 360° so I could scrub the inner walls with confidence.

Lids care

I followed the recommendation to hand wash the silicone lids to extend the life of the rubber seal strips. I also dried them thoroughly after washing, because moisture trapped in the silicone can degrade seals over time.

Usability for different drinks

I tried the set for a range of beverages to test versatility. The 20 oz capacity was great for tall iced coffees and afternoon cocktails, and the wide mouth accepts straw-laden drinks like boba or smoothies.

Beer and cocktails

For beer, the can-shape felt whimsical and comfortable; the glass showcased carbonation and head nicely. Cocktails looked attractive and the lid made it possible to take drinks outside without worrying about insects.

Iced coffee and cold beverages

I used one for iced coffee with milk and the glass showed off the layers that form when milk and espresso meet. The glass didn’t retain odors and remained clear after several coffee uses.

Bubble tea and smoothies

The set works well for boba if you use wider straws; the included glass straws are standard width so they’re better suited to smoothies or bubble teas without large tapioca pearls. I’d recommend adding a few wider straws if you plan to drink classic bubble tea often.

Hot drinks

I heated tea in the cup without the lid and the glass handled it fine. Because borosilicate resists thermal shock better than regular glass, I felt comfortable using these for hot beverages with care.

Durability and safety

I tested for everyday durability and safety; the borosilicate construction lends confidence against thermal shock and breakage from normal use. The glasses are still fragile compared to metal or thick plastic, so I treat them with the care typical for drinking glassware.

BPA-free and food safety

I like that the silicone lids are BPA-free and the whole set is geared toward safe contact with food and drinks. The seals and materials gave no off-odors initially, which is a good sign for manufacturing and storage conditions.

Dishwasher, oven/microwave, and freezer usage

The flexibility to use glassware in the dishwasher and freezer is a practical advantage for me. That said, I always removed silicone lids before any heat exposure and hand washed them to preserve their seal.

Practical rules I followed

I put the glasses and glass straws in the dishwasher on the top rack and hand washed and fully dried the lids. I also avoided sudden temperature changes: for instance, not moving a frozen cup straight into a hot oven.

Pros and cons

I put together balanced lists so I could quickly weigh the set’s strengths and weaknesses from my hands-on experience.

Pros

• Attractive can-shaped design with cute pink lids that add personality.
• Generous 20 oz capacity suitable for many beverages.
• Borosilicate glass makes the cups heat- and cold-tolerant.
• Comes with 8 lids, 8 straws, and two cleaning brushes — good value for a set.
• Dishwasher-safe glasses and straws for convenience.
• Silicone lids reduce spills and keep drinks covered outdoors.

Cons

• Lids are not microwave-safe and require hand washing to prolong seal life.
• Glass straws are not wide enough for large boba pearls without additional straws.
• Glass is still breakable; not ideal for rough outdoor use or small children.
• Seal reduces leaks but is not fully leak-proof if the glass is upside down.

Comparing this set with similar options

I compared this HOMBERKING set in my head against single-purchase glass tumblers and stainless steel options. The HOMBERKING set stands out for its coordinated accessories — lids, straws, and cleaning brushes — whereas many glass sets only include glasses.

Key differences I noticed

Compared to metal tumblers, the glass maintains flavor neutrality and transparency so drinks look better. Compared to cheaper soda-lime glass sets without lids, this set adds convenience for outdoor use. If you need unbreakable cups or full leak-proof travel mugs, then a different product might suit those specific needs better.

Giftability and occasions

Because the set comes in a group of eight and looks festive with pink lids, I found it to be an excellent housewarming or bridal shower gift. I would personally give it as a birthday present for someone who enjoys entertaining or has an aesthetic kitchen.

Event suggestions

These are great for small gatherings: brunches, cocktail nights, bachelorette parties, and even holiday parties where coordinated glassware adds to the ambiance.

Practical tips and tricks

I developed a few habits after using the set that made maintenance and longevity easier for me. These tips might help you get more from the glasses.

Use and care tips

• Remove lids before microwaving and before placing the glass in extreme heat.
• Hand wash and dry the silicone lids thoroughly to protect the seal and avoid mildew.
• If you want to use the set for boba, pick up a few wide glass or reusable plastic bubble tea straws.
• Store straws vertically to avoid cracking the glass straws under weight or pressure.
• Use the included straw brushes regularly to avoid residue buildup inside the straws.

Frequently asked questions I considered

I answered a few questions I suspected other customers might have based on my hands-on use.

Are the lids leak-proof?

I found the lids to be leak-resistant thanks to the silicone ring, but they’re not fully leak-proof if the glass is turned fully upside down. For normal tilting and outdoor use, they dramatically reduce spills.

Can I microwave drinks with the lid on?

No — I avoided microwaving with the silicone lid in place. The lids are not recommended for microwave or oven use.

Are the straws fragile?

Glass straws are more fragile than metal or thick plastic straws, but the ones in this set felt sturdy for daily use. I handled them carefully and used the cleaning brushes gently to prevent breakage.

Will the seals wear out?

With frequent dishwasher cycles or rough handling, the silicone seals can degrade. Hand washing and careful drying of lids will extend their lifespan.

My personal use cases and scenarios

I tested the cups in different contexts to see how they fit into my life. I used them for work-from-home iced coffees, backyard beers, and evening cocktails with friends, and they functioned well across all scenarios.

At-home daily use

For everyday iced drinks and water, the set works perfectly and I appreciate having eight cups when guests arrive. The coordinated look on my counter looks more intentional than a mismatched collection.

Entertaining and parties

When I host small gatherings, the pink lids and straws add charm and reduce the chance of glass contamination from outdoor elements. They’re light enough to pass around and provide a cohesive look.

Packaging and unboxing notes

I want to emphasize that the set came with protective film and careful packaging around the straws, which I think is important to reduce shipping damage. That attention made unboxing pleasant and saved me time checking for defects.

Environmental and sustainability thoughts

I like that this set encourages reusable drinking habits: silicone lids and glass straws reduce single-use plastic waste. Glass and silicone are recyclable or long-lasting, so this is a better alternative to throwaway cups or plastic straws.

Who I think this set is for

I recommend this HOMBERKING set to people who enjoy hosting, like a coordinated tabletop look, or drink a lot of iced beverages at home. It’s particularly appealing to someone who wants the look of glassware but also wants spill-reduction and reusable straw convenience.

Who might look elsewhere

If you need unbreakable cups for toddlers, or fully leak-proof travel mugs for commuting, this set might not be ideal. Also, if you need wide-bore straws for boba tea regularly, consider buying wider straws alongside this set.

Troubleshooting and maintenance reminders

If you ever find residue inside the straws or a seal that seems sticky, I suggest soaking the lids in warm soapy water and using the brushes to thoroughly clean straws. For persistent stains, a paste of baking soda and water applied to the glass can help restore clarity.

Warranty and customer service impressions

From what I read in the product details, the seller promises to stand behind the product and offer solutions for damaged or imperfect sets. I didn’t have to contact customer service during my trial, but the option is reassuring.

Final verdict

I genuinely enjoyed using the HOMBERKING Glass Cups with Silicone Lids 8pcs Set. The combination of borosilicate glass, coordinated silicone lids, reusable straws, and cleaning brushes offers solid value for entertaining and everyday use. If you want attractive, functional glassware that reduces disposable waste and adds a playful touch to your drink service, I think this set is a strong choice.

Summary recommendation

I would recommend this set if you like glassware that covers many bases: good looks, temperature flexibility, and accessories included. Keep in mind the need to hand wash lids, the slightly limited straw diameter for large boba pearls, and the usual care required for glass items — with those considerations, I found the set to be a reliable, attractive addition to my kitchen.
