Is the glass pirex? Can you pour boiling water in it?

Heavy duty but don't think it's pyrex - we make sun tea in it and that works great - can just stick on refrigerator shelf when done - don't think I'd try boiling water.

I do not believe it is pyrex. It's durable but I have not tried pouring boiling water into it. I doubt I would ever try that either.

It is very heavy glass, but I would hesitate adding boiling water. I use mine to store flour and sugar.

Yes! I boil water in it in the microwave! The double wall glass keeps liguid hot!

Yes--I probably wouldn't put boiling water in it, but we used warmed water in it a couple of times when we needed/wanted hotter water.

No. It is glass and a great jar. I use it each day to drink cold water or a jar of hot tea.

I believe yes you can boil they are glass and metal. BUT let me tell you that I returned this blender-set because the many plastic parts are very bad quality. Also, it leaked on the bottom and the jar lid did not close tight either. I read here in amazon a better deal for a blender in Walmart.

This is like a small inflatable swimming pool. I wouldn't think boiling water would be too good for it. It is made for ice.

Yes you can put hot liquids in it. I use mine for home brewing and often use it for sparge water at 170°F

I personally would not pour boiling water in this container. As I mentioned in my review from a few years ago, the one I purchased (as a replacement for one that I got in the 90's) broke the first time I poured very hot- about 200 degrees (but not boiling) into it. Manufacturer's changed the formula for making "tempered" glass and this new formula doesn't seem to be able to take the "thermal shock" that the old glass formula could take. (I made ice tea with almost boiling water in the old glass pitcher for over a decade until it broke when I dropped it on the floor). Several years ago Consumer Reports did an article about this topic, and their research indicated this was happening because of the change in the glass formula. If you research this topic online you will find information about this issue.

Havn't tried, but I don't think so. You pour boiling water into it, as in tea!

I don't think so... I always boil the water in a kettle first and then pour it in. The glass feels fairly thin and delicate.

I didn't try but I think you couldn't. You can just pour in it boiled tea (as I use it and then pour tea into small cups for example when I meeting guests) or just put some tea leaves in it and pour boiling water.

No, This is a thin glass and I am sure boiling water would crack it immediately. I can't tell you for sure because I never tried it and I don't think I will. You can brew iced tea by placing the tea bags in the container and add cold water. Let it sit on your counter top for a few hours. It will be fine tea.

Linda, sorry I do not know...These glasses have not been put to any type of heat test. The density of the glass is greater than that of a regular glass. I trust someone will be of greater knowledge/information. I am guessing they could handle boiling water with no problem...beyond that???

Other than the inside of the lid, no. As far as I can tell, only glass and metal (from the coil that runs up the side) touches the water when boiling.

Yeah totally bro even boiling water, you can put the hot water in but you can't put the glass on the stove top

Yes but I would not pour boiling water in it. The pot is made of thin glass
